Join me on an unforgettable journey through Sin City as I share my experience of a Las Vegas trip that started out as a complimentary getaway but quickly spiraled into a whirlwind of extravagance and excess.
In this video, I'll take you along as I explore the glitz and glamour of the Las Vegas Strip, indulging in luxurious accommodations, world-class dining, and thrilling entertainment-all thanks to generous comps from the casino. But as the dice rolled and the cards were dealt, I found myself caught up in the excitement of the casino floor, where luck seemed to have a mind of its own.
As the night unfolded, I couldn't resist the allure of the high-stakes tables, where each bet seemed to promise the thrill of victory or the agony of defeat. And while the complimentary drinks flowed freely, so too did my enthusiasm for the games of chance.
But the true cost of my Las Vegas adventure became apparent when the final tally arrived. What began as a complimentary trip soon turned into an expensive lesson in the perils of gambling, fine dining, and extravagant shows. From Michelin-starred restaurants to dazzling stage performances, every indulgence came with a hefty price tag.
Join me as I reflect on the highs and lows of my Las Vegas escapade, offering insights and advice for anyone tempted by the allure of Sin City's glimmering lights and seductive promises. Whether you're a seasoned gambler or a first-time visitor, this video serves as a cautionary tale of the dangers that lurk beneath the surface of Las Vegas' shimmering facade.
So buckle up and get ready for a rollercoaster ride through the ultimate playground of excess and indulgence. Welcome to my Las Vegas adventure-where the comps are free, but the cost is anything but.
This was done so well!! Can’t wait to see more
All over the world, stay tuned
Yes, I really appreciate the soft music too instead of the doof doof techno-type stuff most vloggers use.
This is how Vegas vlogging should be done. A perfect mix of your personalities while still highly informative.
Thank you so much. I have many more locations coming. Stay tuned :)
I agree. Loved the style.
@@petarian9498 thank you!
Love the honesty of the cost. That free room is usually never free.
Wait for my Fontainebleau video, an exception to the rule
As a Vegas regular once told me at a craps table, "They get you with the free stuff!"
Hi! You both did a terrific job sharing your experience and showing your personalities. Loved it!
Thank you so much!
The view from your room is the best. Your videos have great information and I love the attention to detail.
Thanks so much!
Loved the video and excited to see what else you have in store of us. Very well done!!
More to come!
Great video, we had so much fun watching, thanks for taking us along....

Loved the proposal 💍 story and pic ❤ congratulations 🍾. You both have great faces for 🎥 📷 Very Cute Couple. 🙌🏽 to 🌞🌞 and 🙈!
Thank you so much!
So well done!
Thank you, many more adventures coming
Next time you order from Room Service, Tell the person that you're giving your order to over the phone that you want the server to bring up a table. It works every time! A lot of times lazy waiters will just bring up the bag of food or a tray of food because they don't feel like rolling the table all the way up to your room.
In the mid '80s😢 one of my first jobs that I ever had was at The Tropicana hotel. If room service doesn't have any tables they need to have the bus boys go bring them down from the hotel and break them down. And when you're finished with your food on the table just stack put everything toward the center and push it out to the hall and somebody will come by and pick it up You may even there might even be a four digit number that you can call and say okay we're done with this table up here and I just pushed it in the hall!
Next time!
Loved watching this guys, great insightful commentary and editing and some fun chemistry with your wife.
Thanks!
Great content! Please do this for all the great casinos on the strip! I just subscribed. It shows how much you both enjoy Vegas, and that's fun to watch. I'm flying out tomorrow to a comped Mandalay Bay stay, I have been staying at MGM properties the last two years, as the Caesars comps seem to be a little stingy lately. Cheers! Eric from Traverse City
Fontainebleau is coming. Stay tuned. We’re all over the world, but definitely go to Vegas often. Probably too often haha
Great video and great editing, hopefully some more Vegas soon.
Absolutely i won big at Fontainebleau recently covering that weekend soon
This is hands down the best vegas vlog I have seen. Well done!
Thank you so much, stay tuned for more :)
Really well done. I haven't been in the Bellagio for years and this presentation was SO refreshing. The cost was staggering though!
Well i did a lot of optional add ons for sure
Underrated, love the content!
Thank you! More coming this weekend
Love the videos! Lol, the commentary is hilarious!
Thanks!
This is the way it should be done. The quality, the flow along with great content is complete. My budget might be a bit out of range but that makes seeing the exclusive places in the videos that much more worthwhile. I like watching even though I may (or may not) ever experience these places in person. Great channel!
Thank so much, subscribe for all of our destinations
Watched 2 of your vlogs, hilarious! Love ❤️ 😍 💖
Glad you like them!
Really enjoyed this video,,,,you’re fun. I’m in Vegas OFTEN. But watch videos here all the time. Keep it up. Btw the proposal pic was great.

Great vlog! Thanks for your input ❤️
Thanks for watching!
Hey! I liked your videos. Keep going, buddy! Wish you all the best!😉✌🏻

Very enjoyable video!
Glad you enjoyed it! Many more coming :)
This was a fun vlog. Glad I happened upon it
Stick around they’re only going to get better
Awesome review, I love bellagio, and Superfrico is one of the weirdest / freaky places I’ve been too. But the lb of mozzarella and the drinks wins me over! Do lots more vegas videos! I might even try my own (with my English wit in 2 weeks!)! And, subscribed!
Do it
Greetings! I’ll be at Bellagio in a few weeks . I’m a gold member so never pay the resort fees and get all my suites comped . I’ve never had a bad stay . Have reservations at Prime, Spago and Sadelles . True they get you if you gamble or dine but a room or suite for free is still free . If you paid full price for the room you still have to eat and spend money . Fun video 😎😎😎
Enjoy your stay! You seem to know what you’re doing. Check out my NY video I’m more of an NY expert than a Vegas one
Love, love, LOVE The Bellagio. Picasso is amazing. I have to try the tasting menu next time I go. I did the prefix meal. They had these amazing poached oysters.
Dude, if it's in the budget, do three nights in the penthouse suite. It's amazing and worth every penny. Nice video. That's the way to do Vegas.
So good
Gotta love JSX I used it the last few times I flew to Vegas.
So good
They still have traditional room service with the cart and silver, as long as you meet the $125 minimum! We normally get it once a trip. Great video we’ll be there in June!
Have fun!
Great video bro! Sucks about the drone. Keep up the good work 🤙🏼
Thank you dude, stay tuned for more
Really enjoyed this vlog .
Glad you enjoyed it
bro, how you only have a 130 subs?! loving the content!
Just started, many videos are coming, share and come back for more :)
thank you amazing vlog i will be visiting Vegas soon from Singapore
Have fun!
New subscriber, great video! Look forward to more👍
Welcome aboard!
Hi from the UK. Just subbed. Great channel! Love the way you explain everything with a twist of humour thrown in for good measure. Btw, pls share the nane of the atmospheric music you used from 3:46ish onward.. It's awesome!
In the isle of Skye right now! I’ll have to check on that, everything was sourced from adobe stock. Forgive me if i forget to. Thank you for the sub :)
@@austinroque ahh....have a great time..looking forward to seeing your next vids! Now worries, if you manage to get the name of that epic song let me know and I'll get you even more followers for your epic vids ! ;-)
Excellent job, so entertaining and at the same time informative, as the others have commented. I subscribed of course!! Thanks for the great video....P.S......When my husband and I went to Wayne Newton's show, I got to kiss him on the lips hehe! This was in 2018 which was our 1st trip to Vegas...it was perfect.
Awesome! Thank you :)
Omg that bagal and locs looks incredible
It was pretty good
"It's not my birthday". I just LOST IT here at work hahahahaha!!!!
She does this to me all the time
You two are dope! ❤
Thanks. Keep watching :)
I really like your humor great video will watch and subscribe
Awesome, thank you!
Honestly surprised Wayne Newton is still alive!
Right? Good for him tho
Great video!!!
Thank you!!
Kinda slow on the trip upload from June last sunmer? The premiere in room dining with traditional table service requires a $125 minimum spend. You guys probably ordered less than that, so you got the “classic” packaged to-go service. Also, you missed so many changes between Bellagio and Cosmo already since your video is so old. OPM show closed down end of ‘23 already, glad I got to see it beforehand.
We’re been traveling non stop, just getting editing done. I wanted a backlog to guarantee i had weekly uploads
Hate to break it to you but the cops probably have your drone and you may get a call from the FAA
Dramatization
Good job.
Thank you, tomorrow’s video is even better imo. Stay tuned
nice, felt like this was from a way larger channel, i watched the whole thing, you will do well
Just started but I have many videos coming. Thank you!
Great video.
Thank you, more are coming :)
That was entertaining thanks. Keep up the good work.
Why were your resort fees not comped?
They don’t typically, i don’t think.
Resort fees are comped when you're at Gold or higher with MGM Rewards. They'll also comp them based on previous play, but it looks like he plays mostly table games with a relatively low bankroll.
If you go to the rewards desk before you check out, you can ask if you played enough to get your resort fees comped. It's worth asking. I've been surprised to receive comps for my level of play (I typically budget a $300-400 per day maximum loss).
@@DavidGoshorn yeah I’m new to all this. They just gave me a free room within their app.
Nice report.
Thanks!
That was great 👍 😮
Glad you enjoyed it
Honestly, i would send it back. Were they under the impresion that you were doing a Grand Canyon tour and wanted some food to go?
Right?
Great old fashioned at that lobby piano bar
Yessir
You forgot to add in the cost of the lost drone....., as well as the cost of your transportation (Plane and Ubers).
Did your costs include tips?
We walked between hotels. And yes tips were included as part of the final tally they were added to each bill
Loved the video and honesty throughout! For what it’s worth, I’m a local. Have you considered any off-strip places? There are so many cheaper places to do nice dinners, gamble, etc. and not lose a drone 😀
We are both Vegas curious, and back often. Won big at the Fontainebleau, that video will be coming soon:)
I figured you'd lose your drone. I think its illegal to fly them within city limits. Looked like you had a great time! I LOVE Vegas!
Always fun
Went to Superfrico the first couple weeks it opened. Loved the instant transfer to Opium it was absolutely a great experience, but the food felt lacking. Hoping they upped the quality I just attributed it to the fact they were slammed.
I agree, good drinks fun atmosphere average food
one for the books! minus that one part 😅
Next time
How were you able to get comp hotel tickets? Great video.
Just join their rewards programs and gamble
I like how Wayne waved to you like you were one of his grandkids
Legend
I don’t really go to shows and don’t eat expensive food so the room comps are not bad. But I lose about 1k gambling so my true cost is more like $1200
The important thing is that you keep a budget in mind for gambling and regard it as expendable
Subscribed!
Thank you!
More Vegas vids pls
Well eventually go back. Thailand and Japan are up next :)
@07:00 that’s a real multitasking. What a show off!
😎
I had heard that the Opium show was no more. Do you know a close date or was the closing a bad rumor?
Hmm idk, they don’t really close I think. Just retool them once in a while
for like 6days with flight and everything from sf. we spend like 3-4k (2x people, VDARA) with eating, show. no gambling. so watch out. cheaper if you go with someone. ofcourse thats no comp
Next time gamble, sometimes you win ;)
How much was everything? Nice to see it all but I really wish you’d say how much things were as you consume them.
The breakdown was in the end

Hit pretty big at fountainbleu that video is coming soon
You didn't include the cost of the lost drone
True. I need those Adsense dollars to offset these mistakes lol
Love the robes I bought one wear it at home every morning, I order room service but it never comes.
Reminds me of that line from Casino
🔥🔥
You got hosed the resort fee on comped rooms? Maybe a little sweet talking at the desk may have gotten that waived. I hope your fianceé comes out of slo-mo okay, but it's a good look for her! 🤣
It’s all app based, idk. I’m new to gambling honestly
What a great hotel! But I honestly thought it would’ve been cheaper with a comp room 😂
Things do add up
wait lol why did the drone fly away? was it dronk lol ..
🤷🏻♂️
Whooooooooooooaaa delish!!
This is a weight gain channel low key
Your ticket date said 06/23 is this a yr. old?
Yes it is, basically these first couple of videos were practice. We then got married went on our honeymoon all over Asia, i was gone for 8 weeks, and I have a back log of editing to do. Also i wanted to have several ready to go to be able to upload once a week consistently for a while.
Dude you are doing it wrong ,only play MGM or 90% MGM. We only take 6K a trip all suites comped no resort fees,1000k in food,900 in free play, any show at MGM free. If we spend over our Host will take it off. Plus Limo and gifts in our room. We Spend 18 to 24 K gambling a year and get treated well. I think most of the time its a wash for vacation spend. 16 days in Luxury and Gamble and show for $ 1500 a day is a deal. Last year we claimed $18950 in hand pays from Vegas Mgm... Almost free. Keep up the videos We dig them.
Fontainebleau i won big that video is coming soon
Feel so guilty, because if I was there, I can definitely guarantee you'd have come over and said, "Dude! Why you staring at my fiance and not eating your food?" 😍
Plane fare? Reseort Fees? Taxes? Uber? Tips?
Plane fare was high because i elected to fly JSX, didn’t think it was fair to include because there are many ways to get there that are cheaper. Resort fees and tips are included in the breakdown as are taxes. I gave the totals from my CC statement.
