With hotels becoming pet friendly, are there any established policies about pets that are not service animals on the casino floor? (I have a photo from a couple weeks ago showing two dogs on the casino floor at M. Neither was wearing service animal collars.)

What is the average daily gambling bankroll for Las Vegas Casino patrons? I have always been curious, but never able to find an answer.

Why were the railroad cars removed from Main Street Station? There seem to be more and more landmarks and business establishments disappearing from downtown. I believe they had something to do with Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. Any info would be helpful. Also, the contents of these cars — will they be sold or put up for auction? You mentioned a scrapping company in Ely, Nevada. Could the train cars be going to the Northern Nevada Railway Museum?

At most strip clubs, you have to pay a steep cover charge if you arrive by cab (I assume because the cabbie gets a kickback). So if I arrive by Uber or Lyft (a private vehicle), can I avoid those cover charges?

What happens if I'm playing on my husband’s card and I hit a jackpot over $1,200? Will I get paid?

Are there special rooms at "pet-friendly" hotels or do you get whatever room is handed out?

Part 2 of the "Slot Winners Suspected of Cheating" story

Some guy won big twice in the same week at a casino (the Palms) on the same slot. Is he now "in the book" as an advantage player and banned from that casino's slots?

(In fictional Vegas movies, it's always reprogramming, lasers, or some other computer nonsense, such as the sequence of the bills used or line bets.) Has this ever really happened?

Of all the blackjack card-counting systems, which is the easiest to learn/use and which is the most accurate?

You told us about the current level and projections for Lake Mead, but what about Lake Tahoe? Has this wet winter made a dent in the drought in northern Nevada?
