@@herts9999 Yes, I guess Christmas did come a little early this year, didn’t it?! I was surprised that Slotmassacre launched one in nearly the same day as I did. Thank you for your comment. Happy holidays.🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Thank you, Becky. It took me a while to put this video together, but I wanted to preserve the memory of the Mirage for viewers by showing as much of the casino that I could think of. At least, I got it all done. Thank you for your comments.🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Thank you, Jiro, I appreciate your comments. My vision, of course, is to make a more seamless video (along the lines of a true Hollywood production) but I have to work within the limitations of the software that I have available, as well as, my own limitations as a film editor. At least, the viewers can get the gist of what I’m trying to accomplish in the video.😊 Thanks again and take care. Happy holidays to you, Jasmin, and family.🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Thank you, Linda. I just wanted to preserve the memory & legacy of a once great and mighty casino for prosperity. The Mirage revolutionized the gaming industry and set the standard for refined luxury only to be topped by the likes of the Bellagio, Encore, the Wynn, and others. Thank you for your comments and continued viewership!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
@@billjones4986 Yes, indeed. Vegas certainly makes a big impression the 1st time around, doesn’t it?! I still remember my 1st visit too. It was a mind-boggling thing to behold! It still blows my mind! Take care, Bill. Happy holidays!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
@@ValVegas-ym1wl Thank you for saying so. Hopefully, one day, I have access to better professional editing software in the future, so I can make my videos a little more seamless, but I’m amazed at how much can be done with a simple iPhone. I appreciate you kind words and acknowledgement. Happy holidays!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Good to see you back in action. Thanks for the tour of the Mirage. I have many fond memories of the Mirage, never stayed in the hotel but played a lot of video poker and slots there with good friends. Fun times from over 25 years ago. Stay well my friend, thanks for sharing.
Hi Tony, Thank you for your comments. Yes, a lot of near miss opportunities, but I was happy at least one Quad did hit. All my best wishes to you and your family this holiday season!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Great Mirage compilation - thanks. Cut my Vegas teeth in the early 1970s at Stardust and Riviera. Started working the Mirage into the rotation in early 1990s. Don't really miss Stardust nor Riviera but do miss the Mirage - don't know why - maybe it was the maturing of my Vegas action no more 20 hour straight grind it out sessions. Mirage was relaxing. Greatly enjoy your videos and VP play - keep them coming! Great shot of the crew at the steakhouse !!!
Thank you, Alfred, I appreciate your comments. It sounds like you had a one of kind experience being part of Vegas as it transitioned from the mob era into the 21st Century. What a transformation that, time & technology, has brought upon the gaming capital of the world. I’m sure that you have more than a few stories to tell. I really enjoyed the Mirage’s vibe, laid-back atmosphere, and touch of class. Thank you for your loyal viewership!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Greetings from Torrance! Hello sir! My son and his girlfriend spent a few days on vacation last year at the Mirage. They saw the Beatles show "Love" and thought it was incredible. Wow, its sad its leaving, but hopefully the new hotel will be just as fun. Hopefully life hasn't kept you away from the casino. I have been working a lot of overtime this past year. That has kept me busy. I call it extra "Pechanga money". Thanks again for another awesome and memorable video!
Hi Paul. Yes, I’ve seen the Beatles show twice. One of those times, I was comped in the front row for the whole family. I also loved the Mirage pool because it had a separate tropical area full of trees and foliage in the shade where the dolphin bar was located next to a jacuzzi. It was perfect! I will miss it. I had a penthouse suite there one time too which was memorable for the whole family. I’m sure that the Hard Rock will be mind blowing with its guitar shaped hotel & by also keeping the original hotel but updating it as well. Greetings to your Mom & family. Enjoy the holidays! Take care.🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
One day, some way, perhaps, we will. It would certainly be a lot of fun and something that I would be up for. A lot of “life” has come our way since I first met, Andrew, in August of 2020, but what a journey it has been, both personally and professionally. Slotmassacre, (during the Pandemic), single-handedly created the UA-cam video poker genre, as far as, I’m concerned. He’s “one of a kind” and there’s no one else who does it better than he does. Slotmassacre is the King of video poker on UA-cam, bar none!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
I think the Hard Rock always needed an “On the Strip” location. I just wish it weren’t at the Mirage. At least they’re keeping the original Mirage hotel building intact and building a hotel guitar-tower next to it. I think it will turnout ok.🙏🏻 Thanks for watching.🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Hello John! I love your videos and your play. I got a royal flush yesterday and I wanted to share that with you ! ua-cam.com/video/OmQ2ya6QHTI/v-deo.htmlsi=H1rS-Q3nnemQAf4N
Great job hitting that Royal Flush at Yaamavá, Marc, and thank you for providing the link to view it. I play there from time to time too. The pay tables aren’t the best there (such as they are at Pechanga & Pala casinos in Temecula) but Yaamavá is a very nice place. They have a decent buffet, good food courts, restaurants, and their free play promotions are good, as well. I like their sister property in Vegas, The Palms, and have stayed and played there many times. Their video poker offerings in Vegas are much better than here in SoCal. Yaamavá is one HUGE casino. Keep up the great work!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
@ Thank you John and by watching your videos I knew this machine was hot. It was rolling. I had six 4 of a kinds, including four aces and then the royal flash. It’s rare to have that kind of luck on the machine, but I guess it was my day. I look forward to trying one of your local casinos in Temecula! Merry Christmas and many jackpots and health in 2025 for you.
Great video… we’ve missed you and your fabulous videos! Keep ‘em coming
Thank you so much, Ted. Happy holidays to you and your family.🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
@ happy holidays!
You and Andrew dropped new vids within days of each other?!? Christmas comes early! Happy Holidays, John!
@@herts9999 Yes, I guess Christmas did come a little early this year, didn’t it?! I was surprised that Slotmassacre launched one in nearly the same day as I did. Thank you for your comment. Happy holidays.🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Greetings John, I agree with a short-term strategy changing it up based on the pattern and flow of cards.
@@Sweet_D_VideoPoker Yes! I feel the same way, and have profited greatly from it. Thank you for your loyal viewership and comments!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Great video John! It’s good to see you back in action!
