How much of a bankroll should I have to play quarter 9/6 Jacks or Better video poker? Does the bankroll requirement change when playing 9/7 Jacks or Better? And how large a bankroll do I need to play $1 9/6 JoB?

Could you possibly provide some information on renting houseboats on Lake Mead? We’re coming out this summer with our two teenage boys and a friend each and I thought that renting a houseboat might be something they’d never forget, if we can afford it -- and are taught how to drive one!

We live in New Jersey but love coming to Las Vegas. Now that Atlantic City has limited smoking in casinos, what do you think the chances are of Las Vegas doing the same?

I heard a mini-Las Vegas just opened in California. Do you know what it is and where it is? And is it open to the public?

What's the history of Jean, Nevada, and what's the fate of the Nevada Landing casino there?
