For now, but it wouldn’t shock me if Eldorado cut that benefit.

Currently, Caesars hotel guests get free parking, MGM does not. Both give guests free in and out at other properties they own.

I don’t know if that privilege extends to Rio hotel guests, but I assume it does since the website never said anything.

Parking at PHo seems like the best current option.

Planet Hollywood is moving to paid parking.

The source is a guy with 205 followers who posted something on twitter?

The primary source is a Facebook post by a pool tournament organizer saying their Bally’s contract was cancelled due to the WSOP.

Damn.

Until the Pandemic I was playing semi-regularly with Layne for a few years. One night him and a friend broke the game on my behalf and helped me sober up when I was in an awful mental space and mixing lots of drugs and alcohol. One week he would say he was getting sober and a week later he was visibly on pills and drinking. Certainly one of if not the wittiest player I’ve ever played with. I’ll miss him

Hellmuth, Negreanu, and Matt Savage acknowledged it on Twitter so I guess it’s true.

I was playing a table over from Flack just last month. A woman called out “Layne-y baby”. Could it be him, I wondered, and looked in the direction she was shouting.

There he was. He looked more like he was drinking and having a good time socializing than trying his hardest to win. Maybe that’s that the image he cultivated or maybe he’s the sort to gamble it up and only knuckle down if he gets a big stack. I was too busy concentrating on my game to watch him, but I think he was getting up from the table a lot. At some point, I looked over and he wasn’t there anymore. Whether he went in search of food, more liquor, or another game to play in, I’ll never know.

I have this in my collection:

Lots more about this on Phil’s Twitter

I will give DNegs credit for being open about his wins and losses. He has done a lot of good for the game of poker over the years.

Forgot that I saw Helmuth is crushing the Hu thing a few days ago and didn’t know where to post it.
