It was announced that The Cromwell will open on May 21st, so I checked out their website today. I was surprised that their casino floor included a section called 'The Abbey,' which is described as a reserved area with three table games. The room can be curtained-off for privacy – perfect for high-profile guests. In light of a recent incident where the Nevada Gaming Control Board filed a complaint against Aria for blocking two state gaming agents from observing wagering activity in the casino's high-limit area, it appears that such a 'reserved' gaming area with curtains would be a violation of Nevada's law to ensure that the public has access to gaming. Do you expect the GCB would be concerned about gaming occurring behind a curtain? Do other casinos have similar 'private' gaming areas to appeal to their high-profile guests?

Can you recommend a mobility-scooter rental company in Las Vegas? Do you have any suggestions for getting around using these devices? Do you have any MRB coupons for savings?

It is well known that the Nevada Gaming Commission sets and monitors the payout schedules for slot machines in the state. Do any other states have similar payout controls or are the casinos allowed to set the machines as they see fit?

POLL FEEDBACK: What recently departed or or soon-to-vanish element of "classic" Las Vegas do you miss the most, and why?

I have just spent many frustrating hours trying to co-ordinate my gambling log and the win-loss statements I’ve received from casinos where I played in 2013. I am so confused. None of the numbers on these statements match up with my own very detailed records. What figures should I use on my federal income tax return?

In 2010 you answered a Questions of the Day regarding The Meridian on East Flamingo, by the Hughes Center. What is the status of the lawsuit(s), as a "hotel," and homeowners? It also made the news recently due to a Range Rover being found on the ground of Meridien that was involved in a fiery crash on the Strip with a taxi cab.

Driving in from Bakersfield, close to the Cali-Nevada line, there’s what I’m sure is a huge solar-power installation. I’ve seen other such projects in the Southwest, but this one seems to use mirrors instead of collectors, and tall towers stand in the center of the fields. I suppose I could Google it, but I’m sure lots of other people have the same question: What kind of plant is it?

On a recent "Bar Rescue," they rescued the first gay bar to ever open in Las Vegas named Gipsy. At the end of the show the owner didn’t like the changes and three days later closed the bar. Who pays for all the renovation costs and what happens when an owner decides he knows more than expert Jon Taffer and either changes the bar back, or in this case, closes the doors forever?

You addressed the Super Bowl and the props leading up to the game. Can you provide a little round-up of how some of the more interesting bets turned out?

What’s the story on the Las Vegas magazine called The Sunday?
