In this episode, I’m joined by John Mehaffey, the publisher of Vegas Advantage. John and I go back more than a decade, and after reminiscing about the old days and the birth of John’s unique projects over the years, like ranking rakeback sites and his annual blackjack survey, the topic turns to the here and now and where we see poker headed (the return of Carnival games). We also discuss our grumblings about unethical practices in the content sphere and an overall lack of accuracy.
this episode also gives us the best AI transcript error yet:
“And you did something similar to a little less tedious, but keeping track of hooker room closures.”
The word I uttered was poker, not hooker.
Give John a follow on X and check out his flagship site, Vegas Advantage, for the most accurate information on everything in Las Vegas.
