This weekend grandmother of all pool parties, Rehab , had their dose of Jersey Shore celebrity. While Sammi Sweetheart was partying and judging a bikini contest at the Planet Hollywood Pleasure Pool , Snooki was hanging out with Tiesto at the Hard Rock . I guess this is part of Tiesto’s residency at the Hard Rock that’s been going on for the past few months. As I mentioned earlier this week , I find it interesting... Read more

Over the weekend CNBC sports news reporter, Darren Rovell , posted a picture of Puma sneaker display promoting “Run Your Walk of Shame.” The “Walk of Shame” is nothing new, but this reminded me about a story on Vegas Chatter a couple of days ago on how the walk could be worse at a casino in Las Vegas than other places. I think it’s would be a lot worse walking across a college campus where you will see the same people... Read more

RAO’s , the famous tiny Italian restaurant from New York that is exclusive because of its size as well as its food has become a staple in the Las Vegas dining scene. In New York it’s nearly impossible to get a reservation but thanks to Caesars Palace, everyone can enjoy the Italian eatery. While, it’s impossible to replicate the New York City experience, the Las Vegas location gives it a great shot. There... Read more

I had no idea about this, but Planet Hollywood has gotten into the pool party game. This week they was the first time I noticed they had something going on. They hosted a bikini contest with Sammi Sweeheart from Jersey Shore as their main celebrity judge. The Gazillionaire from Absinthe was also a guest judge, because why not cross promote Caesars Entertainment properties when marketing (that’s not meant to be cynical... Read more

Last week I saw a video called "24 Hours of Neon" being passed around twitter. After seeing the link one too many times I decided to see what the hubub was about and was pleasantly surprised by this HDR and time lapse video of Las Vegas . It's really pretty and worth the 3+ minute investment of time if you like Vegas as much as I do. Before getting to the video make you make expand the view to full screen and what... Read more

It wasn’t too long ago that sports betting meant that you placed a bet at the begging or halftime of a game, you watched the game, and then collected on your win afterwards. Sports betting is one of the few games in the casino that if you are skilled enough, you can win. These types of games are pretty much limited to sports betting , poker , and blackjack . (ED: Craps has better odds than all if you can find... Read more

I love steak and have made it my mission to visit every fine steakhouse in Vegas – on and off the strip. Not just every steak dinner but every meal I have, is measured up to Delmonico Steakhouse . The first time I stepped into Delmonico Steakhouse was for a bachelor party of 12. Now, it’s nearly impossible to wow 12 people at once but Delmonico did just that. Not every return trip has been that amazing, but... Read more

Last night news spread that “ Jersey Boys ” ( buy tickets here ) was leaving the Palazzo in Las Vegas for Paris Las Vegas . Normally I wouldn’t care because I’m not much of a show guy, but Palazzo without Jersey Boys is like having a radio on mute to me. The musical will end its run at the Palazzo, a Las Vegas Sands Corp. resort, at the end of this year and reopen at Paris Las Vegas, a Caesars Entertainment Corp... Read more
