A while back we told you that M Resort offers fitness center users a poolside view. But why stop there? Did you know you can game with a poolside view too? That’s because we’ve got table games by the pool! It’s hard to beat playing a few hands of blackjack with a view like this.
The 
“poolside pit” offers four blackjack tables with minimums starting at just $5. You’ll find a double-deck game and three shoe games. Did we mention the lovely dealers? They look amazing clad in their bright yellow two-pieces and a friendly smile. The tables are under great shade and surrounded by misters. They’re also right next to the poolside bar, so you’ll get your favorite summer cocktail or ice-cold beer in a jiffy. 
The poolside pit is open Saturday and Sunday from noon until 8 p.m. so come and enjoy some summer gaming action outside in this spectacular setting.
What is it? Well, it’s the porte cochere of course. That’s the fancy French name (literally meaning “coach gate” or “carriage porch”) for the covered area at the main entrance where valet, taxis, etc. are located. What’s so great about this? Well, the architecture is awfully interesting, with its swooping glass roofline and integrated beams. When’s the last time you saw a porte cochere you could see through?
It seems there’s a stigma that 
goes along with high limit rooms in Vegas. “I must not be able to play in there.” “You have to 
have a ton of money to play in there.” “Only the VIP’s can get in that room.” None of these are true of the 
ith a suitcase full of money (though, we’re not going to stop you either!) You can bet in the high limit salon with as little as $5. Remember, if you’re betting more, you have the opportunity to win more. And let’s be honest, every guest is a VIP at M Resort.

I was motivated by hunger awareness very early on, as my mother’s family was very impoverished. She had little to eat and spent most of her time as a child malnourished. Because of this, she lost all her teeth by the time she was 18. She suffered with poor health her entire life. I started going to shelters in and around my home town of San Diego and cooking for the holiday dinners. I also began baking dinner rolls and making mini sandwiches for the after school lunch programs. Kids really rely on the meals they get in school. The after school lunch programs prevent these kids from going hungry on the weekends and during summer break. I am so grateful for the opportunity to help fight hunger in my new home town. As a chef it is my responsibility, as I see it, to feed hungry people. Working with Three Square Food Bank has shown me that when people come together for no other reason than compassion and sharing, we can heal each other in ways we’ve never thought. Remember the legend of the stone soup…sharing assures we’ll all have enough.

Themed games have also always been popular on floors. Is it a culture like ancient Egypt you’re interested in, or perhaps a trip to London? Maybe it’s just an activity, like fishing. One of the newer trends in slots are themes based on popular culture. Reality TV shows like “Amazing Race” and game shows such as “Who Wants to be a Millionaire” are represented. Even blockbuster films are getting their chance on the floor with games like “Sex and the City.”
Ultimately, there’s a game that’s entertaining and fun for just about any taste. We all have our favorites – old and new – and there are surely many more amazing things to come in the future for slots. Whatever your game, we hope you’ll join us here at

Notice the color of the wine. It often helps to hold the glass up to light or hold it against a white background like a white napkin. The color can give you a clue as to the age of the wine. White wines generally gain color as they age. Red wines generally lose color. That is, young red wines are more red or burgundy while older wines tend to show a hint of tawny brown around the rim. Regardless of age, the colors of wine are just fun to see, ranging from pale yellow-green to ruby red to brick red-brown.
Put your nose right over the rim of the wine glass and breathe in. Take note of the wine’s aromas and bouquet (the range of smells a particular wine possesses).
Wedding season is in full swing and Vegas just happens to be the wedding capital of the world. With all that matrimony in the air, we decided to offer you an event that’s all about weddings.
