    Lock it Lite! (or whatever its called), @ $5 a spin !
    Had some nice wins on that, as well as Wonka and some Buddha game....
    Didn't feel the love with Buffalo...

    I will hit up some locals style casino on Sat night in 'Pahrump' , hoping to get some good wins there before getting to Vegas on Sunday!

    We like the old Wonka machines best also.But we'll be lucky to see any when we visit next week.Hate the newer ones,played them in New Orleans earlier this year,and they were just as bad there.Had a fair bit of luck with the Dragons Law style slots on the last couple of trips to Vegas,so will be trying those again.There is a new Space Invaders machine apparently there now,but the bonus is a skill game..you actually have to play the game.I was never very good at that back in the day,so may give it a miss.Good for anyone who was red hot at space invaders though.

    I just got a deal to fly Premium Economy with Thomas Cook on the flight home.... We would have paid £25 to pre-book seats anyway, so the deal I got with them costs £132 each..... (technically £107)
    Took a bit of talking rubbish and annoying the lady on the phone, but for that price, cant go wrong...
    I hope Willy Wonka gives me a win to cover the above cost, goes against my MSE !! :D:D

    Only 2 weeks until we go now and I cant wait :)


    What slots are people having the most luck on at the moment? Will be staying at the MGM but travelling around the strip

    If you like the Big Bang Theory then you'll enjoy their slots and I normally did quite well with those. I also did very well with Lemmings but you had to invest quite heavily to get the bonuses which normally paid out quite well (and some of those are 3d too which is strange!)

    My absolute favourite was the original Willie Wonka one which is very hard to find these days(Harrahs,Cosmo did have an odd one) I hate the new ones.I too watch YouTube and sit and watch other people plays slots( my OH thinks I am crazy) but it so I can see some of the newer ones before I go!! I do fancy the one with the leprechaun that throws down gold coins although I don't think it is particularly new....never played it before but I will be trying to find it this time.

    My OH thinks I'm daft too. Even if we aren't going, I still like to watch and see what has been released.
    The Leprechaun one you are on about - I found that in the Venetian last year, it was in front of where that large white cafe is (near the toilets/escalator). There was like a row of older machines. Next to it (facing sideways) was another row that included. Diamond Queen. If you see Ruby Slippers ahead of you, you need to backtrack a bit. *phew* HTH.
    BTW, I actually tried that machine, and he hated me lol.

    Oh, and add Pompeii & Davinci Diamonds to my list of favourites as well. And one when if you got the bonus, a dragon came down and gave you wilds. And if you were super lucky, his twin brother came down and gave you even more wilds. That was a good one too.
    BEST EVER WINS WON IN ORDER (so far) = Sony Camcorder, 32" lcd telly, micro ipod hifi, Ipod Nano, Playstation 3, Andrex Jackpup, Holiday to USA, nintendo wii, Liverpool vs Everton tickets, £250 Reward Your thirst, £500 Pepsi, p&o rotterdam trip, perfume hamper, Dr Who stamp set, steam cleaner.

    comping = nowt more thrillin' than winnin':T :j

    If I remember correctly I think there was one or two in the Golden Nugget when we were downtown last time,but could never get on them.
    That's the problem,everyone wants to play the old ones.
    We specially make a point of going into casino Royale just to play back to the future...probably won't be there this time.

    There is an original Willie Wonka at the back of Casino Royale( hoping it's still there).Last year when we went in June I found a whole bank of 8 of them in the Wynn and they were constantly busy....we stayed in the Wynn in October and they were gone.Like you say when you find one there is always people waiting to play it...I know they have t keep up to date with all the lastest machines but surely they can see what is popular and what isn't so I don't understand why all the hotels got rid of them.
