I have friends making their initial trip to Vegas the week of Christmas. Do you have a list of hotels that have special holiday displays?

While watching the WSOP Main Event, I was confounded by the betting in odd amounts. For example, if the players have 20 million stacks and up and the blinds are 1 million and 2 million, why do they so often bet 4.6 million, 6.8 million, etc.?

A question for Bob Dancer. OK, I'm basically a quarter single-line video poker player. I've had a fairly successful visit to Las Vegas so far. My question is, if I would like to take a stab at a higher denomination say 50¢ or $1, which is the better game to pick: Jacks or Better, Bonus Poker, Double Bonus, Double Double Bonus, Deuces Wild, or something else? I know paytables matter a lot. But which actual game would you try on the last day of your visit to try to hit something special?

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

We’re coming to Vegas for Thanksgiving and to enjoy some Black Friday shopping. Are there some special "happenings" that we should make sure that we don’t miss?

Now that it appears Caesars is heading into bankruptcy, how is the financial health of the other big players, MGM Mirage, Wynn and Las Vegas Sands?

What popular restaurants in Vegas are availing their customers of gluten-free menu choices?

I recently saw a show called "The Dead Files" and an episode about Death Valley Junction and how it’s haunted. Do you know anything about this place?

With Caesars close to Chapter 11, I read where there was more than company. Caesars Palace is owned by one company, but the other hotels on the Strip (Harrah’s, Bally's, etc.) are owned by another company that is not in Chapter 11? Can you explain who owns what and what is going broke in Caesars land?

Further to Monday 17 Nov. QOD....can you give details of what exactly was wrong..."It will stick out like a sore thumb to those readers very familiar with this city--the only ones for whom the famous-name specifics will resonate in the first place--if you make an obvious mistake in geography, as Casino, Diamonds are Forever and, most notoriously, Con-Air all did, resulting in varying amounts of egg on various faces"?
