He added: "Just picture a drunk walking down the street and somebody goes up and just pickpockets him. That"s how I characterise it."

This will get settled out of court for sure.
Whilst I have some sympathy for the man and the casino may have failed on their responsibilities his characterisation is laughable.
"Just picture a drunk walking down the street. He walks up to someone and hands them his wallet and begs them to take it."
That"s how I characterise it.

"Mr Johnston, an experienced gambler, was dropping chips on the floor, confusing chip colors and slurring his speech badly, and he was unable to read his cards or set his hands properly".
I think Stu Ward has a strong case against several casinos.

So have booked from June 11th to June 20th in Vegas to take Lilly for the first time, having only been the once and with a shedload of degens I find myself being asked about "shows" and "pools" and "shops" stuff.. obviously nothing I have experienced before from the last time. Looking for some info from people in the know on here.. any help?
OH and hotels.. We"re going to try and hop from 1 to another during the stay.. hoping to maybe do 3.. any clues as to what would tick all the boxes for her resort wise? Going to start trip advisor checking.. but any help from anyone would be brill. Thanks x
OH.. and June.. seems to coincide with some poker festival over there.. currently negotiating that one :) x
