    Mid-early or mid shoe doesnt always determine how much youll be betting as you approach cut card.
    Who is this to and what is it about?

      It depends how you present yourself. My advice would be to look and act respectable and to try to make a friend at the ticket window. Tip every time you are given drink tickets, every time you are served, and every time you cash in a ticket. Don't forget to smile and to wager at least double the minimum for a ticket.

          If your buddies are in shape, best bet would be a Vegas day pool club like Wet Republic and Encore Beach Club. Went a couple years ago on a guys trip. One of the guys was a personal trainer (worked out 6 days a week kinda guy). We go to Wet Republic and he had a chick and left the place with her in under an hour.

          If going to a night club, they probably know a few tricks of the trade to get patriotic sex, but another buddy of mine who was in the military told me when going to the bar or club, he would leave his dog tags on the outside of his shirt which always helped to break the ice.

          As for night clubs in general, I was never really much of a club person, but when I went to Omnia, it had just opened and was packed with smoke shows. Hakkasan is always supposed to be a good option and Encore and Tao I heard you can never go wrong.

          If all else fails, getting a cabana or table respectively is the easiest way to get women to flock to you since they'll want a place to drink or rest their feet from walking in the high heels.

              Maybe not if your betting $20 a game. A few months back, I was betting between $200 and $500 a game.....and I had more drink tickets then I knew what to do with, and I was drinking the whole freaking day.

                  I've bet $3K on baseball in a dead MGM Grand book in the middle of the summer and received one drink ticket. This March Madness, I made one $400 bet at Caesar's and received 4 drink tickets. There's no rhyme or reason. Some clerks ask if you'd like drink tickets and hand you a handful, some won't offer and when you ask, they hand you one. I can tell you that Vegas is stingier than it has ever been these days.

                    I saw Nino get 4 Bud lights with his drink tickets at Caesars and then pretend to tip the guy a 100 dollar bill that had a fishing line tied to it. The place was so crowded he got away with it!

                        You got a fever bud?

                        I think I get what you're saying. Gambling is something I will partake but not the reason for the trip......... man just getting to the strip there are floozies everywhere.

                        This should be like fish in the barrel. Reports to come. I showed up buzzed when my buddy swooped me up from terminal 3

                          Nice man! Good looking out. Yeah 2 of my buddies and myself are in good shape so the Pools should be on point. That's def more my vibe then night clubs.

                          I'm th master of bar game but I'm like you, never really understood the allure of clubs (unless he is killed dj is playing which isn't often)

                                  If you play craps go to Casino Royale. It's in the middle of the strip and only place on the strip giving 100X odds. Good luck!

                                    Hakkasan night club. Pay a club promoter to skip the line & skip cover.

                                    Better than nightclubs, go to a day club / pool party. Rehab at Hard Rock, Wet Republic at MGM.

                                    Top Golf near MGM Signature is fun if you’re not too hungover during a day.

                                        Ha ha ha ha ha Guys, take it from a former casino employee. Give the clerk a $1 o$2 or bet a penetrating game for them and they'll give you 3 - 5 drink tickets. It aint rocket science.

                                          They aren't. You used to be able to show any ticket and drink all night. Cap now is 4 tickets/day. They had signage saying as much when Westgate took over and remodeled. They are now getting rid of everyone's LVH reward pts. too.

                                            That's probably one of the best ways, in my opinion, to get a higher rating or comps (besides betting high stakes) as I think the pit bosses notice and reward you for it when rating you.

                                            When not playing Poker, I would play craps. One of the things I always make sure to do is place bets for the dealers on top of mine (i.e. Fire bet, hard ways, etc) and the dealers (and even the floor persons) treat me better than even some of the higher rollers at the table. Last time I was in Vegas, I went to the players club to check out, I asked the rep how much I bet and the number she gave was probably double what I was expecting.

                                                4 a day? lol I gave away about 15-20 tickets when I left for the night, and had used probably 10-15 of them over the course of the day. The clerks must have screwed up, because they couldnt give them to me quick enough. I was dropping small tips each time to the window....maybe that helped? But either way, I had more then I could drink.

                                                  Exactly what I was doing. I dont know where the 4 per day is coming from. It's not like they have 1 window, and you deal with the same clerk. Pretty sure they could care less about giving you more tickets every wager.

                                                    When not playing Poker, I would play craps. One of the things I always make sure to do is place bets for the dealers on top of mine (i.e. Fire bet, hard ways, etc) and the dealers (and even the floor persons) treat me better than even some of the higher rollers at the table. Last time I was in Vegas, I went to the players club to check out, I asked the rep how much I bet and the number she gave was probably double what I was expecting.
                                                    When I was on the floor , I took note of players who were polite and tippers. Even a buck or two. Being a casino employee usually sucks, especially for the dealers. Small acts of kindness can go a long way.

Like A4K said, don't be an ass, tip the clerks and cocktail waitresses and the drink tickets will be the least of your worries.
