Episode Description

This week UNLV released research into slot holds in Nevada and the data isn't promising. Not only has the trend gone in the wrong direction, but casinos are routinely holding more money than ever before. We break down what the data looks like, why casinos are holding more and what you can do about it. Plus which areas of Nevada have the best return to player and which are the worst to gamble in?

In other news Derek Stevens wants to attract Canadians by offering a 1:1 par exchange rate. Will this help to draw Canadians back to Vegas? We also discuss: Venetian's stunning hidden concourse, Brightline's construction, A's ballpark progress, more bad elevators, boozie brunch at a playground and the themed restaurant we need in Las Vegas.
