Nice. I got a little tripped up with the other hidden ACEs but for once, I persevered.
- Capn Rick constructor · 2022-09-12T14:15:14.656Z
  Good job, David! Thanks for solving.
  - dplass 6:27 · 2022-09-15T01:56:18.416Z
    I just noticed that the cards go from top to bottom in the grid. Noice.
    - Capn Rick constructor · 2022-09-15T03:19:33.967Z
      Thanks David. I also tried to "ALIGN" the theme entries in a "straight" line. :)
DIS 🤓4:50 · 2022-09-12T13:47:50.654Z
For a moment I tried to figure out what REKOP meant.

  Ha! That gives me an idea for another meta. Thanks, DIS.

Aces! Thanks, Cap’n!

  Thanks, Chris! Nice wordplay!
DrTom 3s · 2022-09-12T16:00:28.119Z
Nice one Rick. I started focusing on Desert Inn other hotel connections and of course was trying to use The “queen” clue when it hit me, “hey I saw ace in there too!” Enjoyable!!
- Capn Rick constructor · 2022-09-12T16:13:45.008Z
  Thanks, DrTom. Glad you enjoyed it!
Hector 🤓6:27 · 2022-09-12T15:46:36.183Z
Symmetrical and everything -- very slick!
- Capn Rick constructor · 2022-09-12T16:16:02.024Z
  Thanks for noticing that, Hector. I also tried to hint at the "alignment" of the cards via 11-Down.
Qmark 3s · 2022-09-12T22:20:14.263Z
Fun puzzle, Rick! Thanks!
- Capn Rick constructor · 2022-09-12T23:51:44.469Z
  You're welcome, Qmark! Thank you for solving.
Bbaack 🤓14:17 · 2022-09-12T23:20:01.558Z
This one was nice and straightforward. Well played!
- Capn Rick constructor · 2022-09-12T23:52:53.300Z
  Thanks, Bbaack. This is one "straight" I'd love to "play" in Vegas!
Alvibu67 10s · 2022-09-12T23:45:43.528Z
Very nice! I saw some gambling/casino terms hidden in the grid as well. Thank you!
- Capn Rick constructor · 2022-09-13T01:01:26.638Z
  Thanks, Alvibu67. Yeah, I planted a few red herrings in the grid to distract from the clues.
Teamdoubletow 4s · 2022-09-13T00:41:16.337Z
We started pursuing the terms hidden on the grid... Luckily Alex course corrected after not too much time
- Capn Rick constructor · 2022-09-13T02:17:47.512Z
  Thanks, Team. I was trying a little sleight-of-hand there with the grid entries. Glad you called my bluff!
Darth 🤓11:21 · 2022-09-13T01:22:56.181Z
Fun puz, Cap'n! I like your punny title, too! =)
- Capn Rick constructor · 2022-09-13T02:20:38.719Z
  Thanks, Darth. Glad you enjoyed it!
Ergcat 18:26 · 2022-09-13T01:56:54.806Z
Good one, Cap’n Rick! I enjoyed the hunt for the hidden secrets of Vegas! Thank you!
- Capn Rick constructor · 2022-09-13T02:22:05.708Z
  Thank you, Ergcat! Glad you uncovered those secrets.
Philip Chow 🤓4:56 · 2022-09-13T03:25:02.760Z
i went down so many rabbit holes including "vegas golden knights" the "slot machine" in "salemslot" and hunting for hotels that could be in the vegas strip... thanks for the fun puzzle :)
- Capn Rick constructor · 2022-09-13T12:15:18.923Z
  Thanks for solving, Philip. Glad you got here in the end!
Carolyn 27s · 2022-09-14T15:39:06.471Z
I also fell into the traps... can't believe it took me so long. Fun puzzle! Thanks
- Capn Rick constructor · 2022-09-14T16:36:21.935Z
  Vegas can be a real tourist "trap" sometimes. Thanks for solving, Carolyn!
KayW 🤓5:58 · 2022-09-14T17:02:36.191Z
Fell for the KNIGHTS and SLOT red herrings, but the Wednesday nudges set me STRAIGHT. Well done!
- Capn Rick constructor · 2022-09-14T17:50:03.333Z
  Thanks, Kay! Glad you enjoyed it.
Dow Jones 3s · 2022-09-14T17:32:23.971Z
Fun grid and meta. You hit the jackpot with this one, Cap'n Rick.
- Capn Rick constructor · 2022-09-14T17:50:49.500Z
  Thanks for solving, Dow. Glad you had fun with it.
Cindy Heisler 2s · 2022-09-15T00:56:56.850Z
I went down a few rabbit holes. Concentrated on the grid rather than clues. Just couldn't get all those Vegas grid entries to spell a word. Then I forgot about Wednesday nudges. But thanks to a nudge or two from a fellow muggle I finally got there. Thanks, Cap'n Rick!
- Capn Rick constructor · 2022-09-15T02:07:28.793Z
  Thanks for solving, Cindy, and thanks to your fellow muggle too!
michaelm 🤓2:54 · 2022-09-15T17:35:54.462Z
Almost a royal flush down the drain for me, but the nudges straightened the path. Puzzle prestidigitation worthy of your own show on the Strip. Thanks again, Cap'n Rick!
- Capn Rick constructor · 2022-09-15T17:53:43.011Z
  Thanks, michaelm! "Puzzle prestidigitation" - say that five times real fast! Love it!
hoover 2s · 2022-09-15T17:44:12.417Z
