Thanks, dropped them an email and got this replyI may be wrong, but I think it's a daily hold rather than all 6 days together.
I would suggest calling them to clarify.
At the time of check in, you will be charged a $150 per day credit card deposit to cover incidental charges to the room during your stay.
I read that as getting charged a $900 deposit upon check in0 -

most Vegas hotels do this, ask them if they accept a cash deposit instead, which will be refunded to you on checking out.0 -
MayJust back from Alize at the top of the Palms. We had the 5 course tasting menu and it was excellent. We also had a starter compliments of the chef, sorbet and a kiwi fruit soup with lemon mousse which made it 8 courses by my reckoning.
Used a VIP Dine4Less card which gave us 20% off so that paid for the tip.
It was 93F today.0 -

I would also ask whether you can decline having the ability to charge to the room - some hotels will let you do that and waive the deposit...you the couldn't order any room service, make any phone calls (other than where they are included in a resort fee), charge food or show tickets to the room...etc. If they do let you leave a cash deposit as penny suggested it's usually much less than the credit card deposit amount.Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?0 -
JuneIs there a trick to drinking for free? Let's say I've lost my daily gambling allocation, it's 10pm, I fancy a few beers with my girlfriend. We could go to a bar, but I've heard that beers are free if we play the slots or the video blackjack.
Is there +ev way of playing a machine where we wouldn't lose the price of a beer in the 15 minutes it would take me to drink it? e.g. Could I play 10c a hand of video blackjack, one hand a minute, for 15 minutes, therefore $1.50 down (not including any winnings) but up the price of a beer?
And could I sound anymore of a cheapskate? :P0 -

$1 a drink is normal......$2 will ensure she comes back soon. Some penny slot machines (1c) have multiple lines going across, down, diagonally etc, and you can play upto say 25 lines at a time......or just the one line to eek out your funds.illegitimi non carborundum0
