Any one have a hook up on cheap UFC 106 tickets

I'm a total cheap ass and pretty much only buy something when I think I'm getting a deal. I'm going out to Vegas for UFC 106 and was wondering if anyone had a hook up on tickets?

You haven't really lived until you attend a.......

Midget Wrestling event!

I get a text from a buddy last night that says " Midget wrestling starts in 5 minutes at the expo center".

I myself being a huge fan of the midget (one of my best friends is midget Mike Cook who appeared on monster garage, and the MTV tribute to evil Knievel) could not pass up the opportunity to see some ass kicking midgets.

Only in Oklahoma

This is the only restaraunt within 15 miles of one of the nicer poker rooms in the state

Fucked up way Oklahoma Indian Casinos steal from the players

I worked about 5 years in Oklahoma at Various Casinos, the last few years as a card room manager. My girlfriend is now the Table games manager at a Casino up on the Northern boarder.

In the poker rooms it's pretty common for the casino to make 2 drops during a hand, the $4 rake on the right and the $1 player promotion on the left. The player promotion money is the players money not the Casinos. This money is to be used for promotions, Bad beat jackpot etc. I've seen the money used to buy cars, feed the players, bu WSOP seats etc. The problem with this now is that the Casinos are stealing this money in a round about way.

The last casino I worked at has got into the entertainment business. They've been holding outdoor concerts, and MMA events. I would be surprised if the Casino gets 200 people who pay for tickets. The casino makes the blackjack pit and poker room buy tickets and give them away to it's players. The problem with this is they charge $150 a person for general admission tickets and up to $500 for VIP ( A folding table close to the action). This should be a fucking crime and it seems as if theirs nothing anyone can do about it.

It's even worse in Blackjack because in Oklahoma they charge a .50 ante per hand bet. This money is the houses take. The State is suppose to get a percentage of the winnings off bets and the rest is suppose to be returned to the players. However the Casinos entertainment company takes it all with overpriced tickets.

Anyone know of any Poker Room openings in Vegas?

I've worked in a Poker room off and on for 7 years. I quit my last job as a room Manager about a year and a half ago. My old lady and I worked together and when I quit she took over the room. I no longer work but her job has gone to shit. Basicly there were several brother / sister, and boyfriend / girflriends who worked in the room. One dealer went and complained about this and now half of the staff has been let go and she was put on 30 days "probation" for nepitism (even though her sister was hired there before she was promoted to manager), and favortism. Yes believe it or not she did show favortism to the staff that did their job, showed up, and in general weren't a piece of shit.

Anyways it seems like about twice a week the GM is calling a new mandatory meeting and every time she's afraid she's going to be fired. I basicly told her it's fucking bull shit to work at a place when you worry about getting fired every time you walk into the door. I think it might be time for some new scenery.
