Ask The Slot Expert

31 March 2000

By John Robison

Dear John,

I am interested in going to Laughlin, Nevada from Kansas City Missouri. Have you heard of any "junkets"? And, if not, can you point me to someone who might know?
Thanks, as always, for the info. By the way, I hit a nice Royal on Sunday playing All American Poker at the Flamingo in Kansas City. Guess I will stick with it for awhile longer.
Rose Mary

Dear Rose Mary:

Congratulations on your royal! I never get tired of hitting them.

The best way to get junket information is to call the hotel you want to stay at and ask their marketing department about junkets. If you play at a local property that is part of the same chain, your local casino may be able to help you, too.

Best of luck in and out of the casinos!
John
