    Contemplating US trip

    Thoughts or comments on Seattle area vs Minneapolis area - notwithstanding CBJN. Could go to Windsor and drive over to Detroit.
    Where I have to fly, I want non stop trips.

    Appreciate any info.

    Of those locales that you mentioned, Detroit has the best games.
    Northern Minnesota, (not Minneapolis) has good red chip games.
    Seattle has Card Rooms good for red chippers only.

    Your opinion on Green Chip play? - by inference - sounds like the blistering Detroit July humidity.

    GT offers the best game. High limit room is $50 min after 12 pm before that there are some $25 tables. High limit room is not often crowded so you can get a game with few players. If you can play $100 min some are hand shuffled. There are $25 min outside the room S17. Next place the is MGM you would want to visit. Standard MGM rules. The MCC don't even bother. As for heat I have only experienced it once. I had a pit boss she followed me from table to table and stood behind me. Don't even bother going to Windsor to gamble.

    2 official languages - English and French. There is no French Queen, just good old Lizzie from Buckingham Palace.

    She might have been trying to scan your brain and transmit the results to the mothership. Anything's possible with today's technology.

    Well there was the previous first lady of France, Carla Bruni, who was a model/singer.

    Not a queen, but not too shabby!!!
