It keeps getting worse in Vegas. I was there twice in the last 2 months and I was shocked at the lack of people in the casinos....but not in the poker rooms.

Meh, I got 3 free nights at Encore out of the deal, and I'm assuming some slightly lower table minimums around town while I'm there.

Works for me.
