The Total Vegas app by Caesars Entertainment covers all 11 Caesars properties in Las Vegas. The app gives a brief summary of each hotel and every restaurant, show and activities on each property. Additionally you can book rooms and check your Total Rewards players club points. This knocks out the need to carry an each for each hotel on your phone.

It would be nice if MGM Resorts could do this for their properties and players club since they also have many Vegas properties. Overall, while not the smoothest app Total Vegas is chock full of information for all Caesars properties. Unfortunately it’s only Caesars properties, but there’s always Vegas Mate if you want info on all Vegas properties.

Good: All Caesars info in one app, including Total Rewards
Bad: Clunky, kind of slow
Indifferent: Not so fancy

Total Vegas is FREE.  See the specs below.

Put the Caesars Entertainment lifestyle in the palm of your hand with the Total Vegas Mobile app. It’s a must-have for Sin City enthusiasts, both while planning your next visit and while you’re in Las Vegas.

With all the Caesars Entertainment Las Vegas properties in one app you can peek into our rooms on all the properties and make a reservation, find out about all of our world-renowned restaurants and book your table, check out all the clubs and hot spots, see who is playing in Las Vegas and book your tickets, and much more!

Not sure how to join Total Rewards or know how to play all the table games? Want to check out the latest offers? Not sure how to “Stay Connected” with the properties? Need a map to find your way around? Just open the Total Vegas app and everything you need to know is at your fingertips.

The Total Vegas app is GPS enabled and will allow you to find the venues and activities closest to you while in Las Vegas. You choose the way you want to view information – by location, property, alpha, price, cuisine type…etc.

The Total Vegas Mobile application is a travel companion that can elevate your trip from ordinary to legendary. Download it for free today.

Triple Trouble Poker is a video poker game from Bally Technology, who brought us the Bally’s Vegas Hits app earlier this year. It’s always fun to play casino games before heading to Vegas and Triple Trouble Poker is no different. The game is fun and is FREE for the next month. The game goes up to $1.99 after.

The graphics are good and the game is quick and easy to play. That said, once Triple Trouble Poker becomes a pay game I would take my money for game apps and spend it on WinPoker since I can learn the strategy behind playing video poker. If you don’t care about playing right Triple Trouble Poker is definitely for you.

Good: Fun
Bad: Doesn’t teach you strategy
Indifferent: Free today, $1.99 in a month.

Triple Trouble Poker is FREE but will be $1.99 in 30 days.  See the specs below.

It was a big week as ECG transitioned to AC2LV. The site isn’t totally done, but I’m getting there. My development time has been looking at another new site, which I hope to announce shortly. I’m pretty stoked that the transition went smoothly and ready to move forward with things for all of the sites. Speaking of all of the sites, check the fun from the week.

As we usher in a new contributor for ECG, it’s exciting to say that this will be the last Week In Review for East Coast Gambler.net. After the new holiday a new chapter for ECG will begin. We’ll have the same content with a shorter URL and (hopefully) better functionality while keeping the same east meets west content. I’ve been thinking about making this switch for a while, but haven’t had the patience to do it. There will be a couple more exciting announcements in the upcoming weeks, but this is it for today.

We’ll be back atcha next week with all the good new stuff. For now, let’s check the week that was.
