I'm hoping you can clarify something for me. I am a big fan of Las Vegas documentaries. Two of the documentaries I've seen seem to conflict with each other. One claims that baccarat didn't come to Las Vegas until Frank Sinatra brought it to the Sands in the early 1960s. Another shows early songstress Rose Marie claiming that Bugsy Siegel once gave her $10,000 to play baccarat at the Flamingo. How could Rose Marie have been playing baccarat in 1946 if it wasn't introduced for another 15 years? Any insight on this? When (and who) first brought baccarat to Las Vegas?

I used to love getting the Mega Dog at The Westward Ho. I was curious is there any other places offering such a huge hot dog? I have seen some tiny .99 foot longs but nothing compares to what the "HO" offered.

I bet $100 on the Packers and won $83.35. Isn't this an unusual vig (17%), or is it normal?

Part II of our Jay Sarno bio.

Can you write a mini bio on Jay Sarno?

This is about the LVA website: Is there an app for that? Actually, are there any plans for any LVA apps?

What happened to "Vegas Week" on the Travel Channel?

Do any casinos besides Bill's have the electronic sit-down crap table?

Whenever I visited Las Vegas, I would play at Casino MonteLago. I liked the small non-smoky casino and its full-pay video poker machines. Tied into the twists and turns of Lake Las Vegas, the casino had its own share of drama. How about giving us an overview of its history and likely return this coming May. As I plan a May visit to Las Vegas, when in May is the casino scheduled to be reopened?

I read in the Las Vegas Advisor newsletter that there are no coupons for accommodations. In 2010, there were 13 hotel-stay coupons with 12 2-for-1s and one for a $7.77 rate. What gives? I've been a member for several years and never before seen zero.
