My husband and I just returned from Las vegas Sept 19th. We stayed at the Stardust for the last time. We have visited Las Vegas 6 times and have stayed at the Stardust 5 of those trips. We feel at home there with their friendly staff and and great rooms,buffet, and casino. We are going to miss it but like everything else nothing last for ever. Our hope is that the new hotel uses some the staff and is as friendly as what is sitting on that ground now.
Good Bye Stardust!

Stayed at the Imperial Palace to celebrate my 50th birthday and I couldn't have been more happier. Check-in after a short wait was efficiently handled by a charming lady; room had a balcony with a fine view of the mountain range, air con (a novelty in the UK) and nice bathroom/shower; cleaned daily by very friendly staff; auto museum is well worth a visit (spent over 2 hours admiring the vehicles on show). The old saying about a property, that there are three things to look for: Location, Location, Location, is apt here, as everything is literally on your doorstep. I will return...

I've played on PP off and on for a month or so. I only play Draw or 5 card stud so I can't comment on anything other than those two games. I've been on the winning side and the losing side of the table and regardless of which side I'm on, something just isn't right here. It's not constant but when it's on, it's quite apparent that something isn't right. I'll explain, but these are only a couple of recent examples of what I've been seeing, off and on, for a month now.
I was playing draw the other night and the player to my right was winning everything. He couldnt be dealt a bad hand and the draws were even better. After dropping about 70 bucks real quick I was about ready to leave. Then the player beats my full house with 4 K's. It was NOT my night. I left to play another game. I Returned a little while later and boom! Man I was on fire. Trips, trips, natural straight, natural flush, draw to inside straight, draw aces to trip kings, more trips, more straights. And then I started thinking, nobody is this lucky...and sure as hell not me! I actually started feeling bad for the other players although by that point i'd probably cleaned out the table twice.
The next day I'm at this table and one guy draws trip aces to a pair of 2's. Another guy says "hell of a draw". I asked him if he was playing the night before. He had and he noticed the same thing I just described.
I go back a couple days later and I'm sitting at a 5 card table. When I got there waiting to join the game this guy wins the hand with trip 4's. Nothing too unusual. I join, dealt a J down, first card a J and I won the hand. Next hand the guy that had won the first with trip 4's, wins with trip 5's, then trip 2's. Someone else wins a hand then someone else, then I have a pair of Q's. The first guy beats me with trip 4's. Next I get a pair of K's. I'm gonna win this one. He beats me with trip 5's! I left.
I'm not a statistical whiz but doing just a little research tells me that the occurances I've seen, as often as I've seen them, aren't probable. Even on my own hot streaks...or more like, ESPECIALLY on my own streaks!
A couple hours later I went back and thought, I'm just going to watch. Same guy is there with mostly new other players. The first hand I watch he wins with trip 4's. Next hand, trip 5's. And after a few more hands I'm thinking this is almost a replay of what I was watching when I was here 2 hours ago. I thought I was in that StarTrek episode where they're caught in the temporal loop!
Another thing I've noticed are these "transient" players who pop in, pick up 200, 300, 500 bucks and they're gone...in about 20 minutes!
Not this might all be my imagination but, to be honest, I don't have a very vivid imagination. It just seems there's something very strange going on at this place and whether winning or losing, i'm not comfortable playing there anymore.
Oh, one other thing...if you do want to go play there, it's the lower right hand seat (C) that is the hot one (see below). There's some variation and some differences in table configuarations but "C" seems to be where it's at most often.

If anyone else has noticed any of this I'd be interested in hearing about it. I really liked playing and I don't have any experience with other sites and, sadly, now I'm reluctant to try.

OUR EXPERIENCE WITH THE SERVICE STAFF AT YOUR "ELITE CLUBS" WAS LOUSEY. WE CANCELLED DINNER AND ANY FURTHER DINING OR CLUBBING OR GAMBLING IN YOUR HOTEL FOR THE WEDDING PARTY AND 100 GUESTS. THE REPUTATION OF THIS HOTEL WAS SUPPOSED TO BE BEYOND REPROACH. THE DRINKS WERE OVERPRICED, THERE WAS VERY LITTLE ALCOHOL IN THE DRINKS AND YOUR FOREIGN EXCHANGE PERSONNEL IS EXTREMELY RUDE AND DISCOURTEOUS. I THINK THE LAST TIME I WAS TREATED THAT RUDELY WAS IN FRANCE! THERE ARE BETTER CLUBS IN VEGAS THAN WHAT YOU HAVE TO OFFER!! I UNDERSTAND DRESS CODES, BUT THE SHOE THING IS RIDICULOUS!! THERE WERE CLUB GUESTS USING AND SELLING DRUGS IN THE LOBBY OF OPM AND PUSSEY CAT DOLLS. LINES ARE LONG EVERYWHERE, YOURS ARE RIDICULOUS. THE PATRONS OF YOUR CLUBS WERE SO EDGEY AND GHETTO I HAD TO LAUGH. IF I WANTED TO SEE SUCH BEHAVIOR I WOULD HAVE HIT THE STRIPPER CLUBS. THEY COULDN'T HAVE BEEN ANY LOWER IN CLASS THAN THE "BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE" YOU WERE LETTING IN. ENJOY VEGAS - DONT WASTE TIME PARTYING OR STAYING HERE-THERE ARE BETTER AND NICER PLACES IN VEGAS.

The Luxor was a great hotel to stay in. I stayed there in Dec 2004. The hotel was kind of tricky to find your way around but eventually I figured it out. The check-in was long but I had expected that. The casino was nice and the pay-offs were ok. The rooms were ok too, but we had went with some other family members and they had a problem with their room leaking water because it had started raining a lot. In our room we had not problem at all. Overall, the whole experience was pretty good.

I WAS AT THE CASINO AND WON BIG, BIG, I ALSO WAS IMPRESSED AT THE SERVICE, AS IT WAS GREAT FOR ME BEING A SINGLE 80 YEAR OLD GUY. THE LADIES THERE WERE WILD AND THEY WERE NICE TO AN OLD GUY LIKE ME. I MET A LADY THERE WHO I AM GOING TO GET MARRIED TO...SHE IS 75....GREAT JOB GUYS.
