    It's fantastic.

    This is an old article, but still...

    Reviews of his London restaurant:

    When going through immigration in Vegas a couple of months back the officer was chatting to us and said they were going out that night for an Indian meal and I'm pretty sure this was the place. If locals go there that's usually a good sign. The only good Indian I can recall outside of UK was in Amsterdam, just off Leidseplein.
  • I just received an email from the venetian with the following offer:


    This fall, make your ultimate escape to The Venetian. Relax in an amazing Luxury Suite that is almost double the size of an average Las Vegas hotel room, win big with $50 in gaming offers, and party at the Strip's newest and steamiest nightlife destination at The Palazzo, LAVO Nightclub.

    YOUR ULTIMATE ESCAPE
    from only $119 per night includes:

    Luxury Suite at The Venetian
    $50 in Slot Credits or Table Match Play for every night of your stay
    LAVO Nightclub Package:
    $50 drink voucher
    Complimentary admission and line pass for up to 4 guests


    Weekends are $159 with the promo.

    Thanks for that one!!!! I really fancied going to the Venetian but it was just out of my price range until I saw this. I had booked the new tower rooms at the Mirage but i've cancelled that now in favour of this one.

    The Mirage was $906 (inc tax) and this is $1061 (inc tax)... but with $50 free play credit, $50 drinks credit and the $15 slot play for joining club grazia... it's more like $946!! :D

    Say six nights.......thats $300. Just back red and black with a buck or two on the zeroes to convert into $280 cash.

    This is the deal of the decade......I booked the previous Venetian deal that looked really good.....this is stonkingly good.

    I agree...almost wish I hadn't posted the one with the $50 food credit now as I think that one was non-refundable so anyone who booked that one, I am sorry...would never have thought something like this one would come up.
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    I have noticed on American cars there is an arrow on the fuel gauge showing which side the fuel filler is,I have not seen this on any UK car.

    Well well, you learn something new every day.
    I own a 300C and just went outside to take this picture, sorry about the quality, it's raining and I did it on my phone. Never noticed it before, you can quite clearly see the arrow pointing to the left next to the petrol pump.

    The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.

    Sorry but I dont get it

    With a matchplay bet you would have to have $50 on red or black and then the $50 matched bet and $100 on the other. Then at least $10 splitting the zeros (depending on the table minimum)

    If the zeros came in on that basis you would only be up $20

    If the matched bet was on red (and it came up) you would get $150 back so be down $10

    If your $100 was on black (and it came up) you would be $40 up

    You could up the stakes on zeros but if they didnt come in you could be down on both red and black bets

    You may see it different to me.
