Roderick...It's one of the most exciting cities in the world and you can
expect to have a wonderful time. If you plan to gamble, it is imperative
that you get a "slot card" (free) the minute you walk into a casino and use
it for all your play, whether in the slot machines or for table games. The
reason is because every time you win over $1200, you will be taxed. As a
foreigner, expect them to take 30%. By using the slot card, your play is
being tracked and after the end of the year, you can contact the casinos and
request a "Win/Loss Statement." Your losses will help to offset some of
your winnings.

If you don't gamble, you will still be dazzled and discover yourself in an
atmosphere like nothing you've ever experienced. Have fun!
