Truth from someone who has lived Neveda. Recall living in El Dorado County, just up hill was Stateline Neveda. Ever casino had great buffet & gambles special rooms, meals.

Last time I was up there it all went pricy like Las Vegas.

New business model must be working. But I wonder how long it will last?

Reno has the Peppermill, Atlantis and GSR, all well removed from the old downtown 'strip'. They are all nice and removed from the madness, along with the Sparks Nugget. Downtown Reno is in disrepair. Went to a Reno Aces game several years ago and downtown was overrun with homeless and meth freaks. Never again without a handgun.

Las Vegas has changed, it use to be a bargin to go there for a weekend.

Recall going in late 90’s weekly, Midnight to 6am Breakfast Special were every where. Buffets were great & reasonable.

Today most of those specials are gone. Hotel's charge to park even if your a guest, resort fee are add to room rates.

Las Vagas has Pro Sport Team s now. Raiders, Knight, and A’s are coming I hear. Raiders Fan from LA & Bay Area are in Sin City pay premium for tickets.

My Cousin has lived there over 15+ years, he also says good old Las Vegas deals are gone. He has been Raider Fan for life, but can not afford a home game ticket in nose bleeds.

I have long list of things I love but Las Vegas has not seem me since 2008.

Love a good Taco's on Taco Tuesday from local place, love a Cold Pacifica Beer, love a good Hand Rolled Cigar, love most good Chinese feed.

I am not a gambler, if I was can drive 20 minute to two New Indian Casinos. They are both new, clean, have good food courts, and restaurants for the blue collar class, or those with money will to drop big buck for Haute Causine..

I've lived in Nevada for almost 50 years, and Las Vegas has changed probably more than other places, including Reno. It was a lot of fun in the 70's and 80's.
I've avoided LV whenever possible for over 20 years.
Last Christmas, I bought my wife two tickets to the AC DC concert this weekend (yeah, August in Las Vegas). thank god one of my daughters agreed to go with my wife so that I don't have to go.
Forecast is 115-117 for the weekend.
No thanks!

Energy transfer from cuetip to whiteball

In baseball a pitcher changes the speed of the pitch by altering the fingers/hand input. In order for the change up pitch to be effective it must have what appears to be the exact same delivery.. A good change up is significantly slower than the fast ball.
A pool player doesn't need to disguise the delivery but it can be deceptive. I have seen diminutive ladies that can really CRACK the rack using what appears to be an effortless stroke. It's all in the timing and delivery. You know just Bitch Slap the cueball. 🤷‍♂️ Hope none are offended.
it's just an expression is my excuse. 😉
