How does three-card monte work?

What is the mean age of Las Vegas residents?

Let's say you enter a satellite tournament for the World Series of Poker and manage to win one of the $10,000 entries. You then, of course, get knocked out in the main tournament, long before you reach the money. What are the tax implications of winning your entry fee? On the one hand, you didn't win any actual cash. On the other, the seat has a definite $10K value. I'd hate to be on the hook for $10K worth of ordinary income that I never actually saw. That would make playing in the WSOP a very expensive lark, even via satellite entry.

I stayed at the Thunderbird Hotel years back. Can you give a little history on this hotel?

About 10 years ago I stayed at Harrah’s and there was an invitational backgammon tournament going on. I was curious to know if any casinos today ever sponsor anything to do with backgammon? Are there any public venues in Las Vegas for backgammon?

I have grandchildren visiting me here this month. Where in Las Vegas can they go horseback riding?

In the past I've read about slot machines for the seeing impaired. Has any slot manufacturer come up with a video poker machine for the visually impaired?

The Venetian has announced their new poker room will be open this spring. Do you have a date for when the grand opening will be?

In your QOD for March 2 you mentioned an outlet mall near downtown. I have stayed downtown for years and can't think of an outlet mall in the area. Where is it located?

We love the Tropicana, but nobody seems to know what’s going on there (including the staff our friends have talked to) as to why they're not taking any more reservations after the middle of March or thereabouts. Are they remodeling? Imploding and rebuilding? Sold?
