Welcome to Kimo's Vegas... The Players Edge!

Lisa Hamilton is the World Series of Poker, 2009 Ladies Champion. The ex-Isle resident beat out 1,059 players to win $195,390 and the coveted WSOP Championship bracelet.

At the Cal, Stanley Fujitake set a world record at the craps table holding the dice for 3 hours and 6 minutes. His record would stand for almost 20 years, until a novice craps player Patricia Demauro of N.J. visited the Borgata. She bought in for $100 and held onto the dice for 4 hours and 18 minutes. See an exclusive interview with the woman who had the historic 154 rolls. The Wizard of Odd’s Michael Shackleford computes Patricia Demauro’s 154 roll run at the Borgata in Atlantic City to be 1.3975 × 0.8627732¹⁵⁴, which equals 1 in 5.3 billion.That’s equal to a 95.6% free-throw shooter making 500 baskets in a row.

There are 84 ways to set a pair of dice… after an exhaustive analysis “The Wizard” says we really only need to know two sets... get his choice sets here.

A better roach trap? Las Vegas is going through the worst roach infestation in the last 13 years (welcome to our world)… and a local resident has made what many are saying works better than any bug spray. The homemade sin city roach motel is made with coffee grounds and water in a glass jar… And you Vegas guys haven’t seen roaches until you’ve seen the Hawaiian B-52’s!
