I'm guessing that's Blackjack. Just got back. I am absolutely beat. Hung w chet a bit on Friday Night (joined his table at Blush for a bit, then we split to play some blackjack. Played some 1/3 with Assani for a few hours at Wynn. Great guy. Killed a few rounds of shots and took a beating to the tune of a grand or so. Combination of drunken aggression and getting crap cards (flop 2 pair, guy turns the nuts, etc). It happens. Had a riot of a craps session Thursday night at Mandalay Bay. Got on the don't pass line for $10 and it hit 12 times in a row...and a total of 20 out of 25 times. Was playing max odds each time. Landed me a gold chip for my efforts. Joined Woz for a minute of some poker at PH but was hammered and dropped a bill or so. He was killing it (up several hundred from what I saw)
Friday I Hung w my GFs good friend becky and some guy who was celebrating his 21st birthday. Did the Osheas thing.... great times thre. Blackjack, beer pong, and a little poker. Treaded water. Lines were sick in the AM at MB Sportsbook.... out the book, down the hall, then doubled back again. 45 minute wait. Oof. My first night I had booked a 750GR suite at MB and tipped the front desk girl a $20 and she bumped me to a great 1.5 Bath 2 Room suite at THEholel. Great room. Had a 750GR for the other two nights. Had the bone in ribeye at stripsteak Thursday night.. It was good but not the best I've had. I'd give it 2nd best ribeye and 4th overall.
didn't play too mucus craps. Mostly bj.
ah that makes sense
Yep, Venetian/Palazzo betting tablet next time, or we might get lucky and more casinos will adopt them.I'm guessing that's Blackjack. Just got back. I am absolutely beat.

Dude you were ####### hysterical. Thought you may have had that guy on your bottom pair bluff (although if he's not in the hand I call and bust you haha with my AQ). Good times though. I wanted to meet up with you the next day but my stupid phone died. I did meet up with Keys for a nice 1-2 session at MGM but was so freaking dehydrated from drinking in the AM during basketball I felt like throwing up on the table. Still killed it though. Nice weekend for betting, went home up 1100. Wish the weather was like 5 degrees nicer though but there were some very pretty women at the pool, just too cold to stay and enjoy it.
it's like a $50 cab ride, pretty far from the strip
Oof...Like I said, I don't mind going a little way but that may not work out too well for me.
I hear ya. I'll pm you for your number and shoot you a text if I head to the strip area. It certainly not worth it to head to Red Rock just to see me haha. The gf may want to do some shopping that Sunday and if so we'd probably head to the Forums at Caesars, the Venetian Shoppes, or Fashion Square by TI - all of which are an easy walk to Flamingo.
I did get four bounties so I made 50 bucks out of the deal.
I wore jeans everywhere with T-shirts during the day and button downs at night (9 Diamonds, BKE, etc)Be sure to bring some non-tennis shoes if you're planning on going to any clubs.
I've been working in LV this week - only thing I would be aware of is the wind. It has been pretty windy and they are expecting 30-40mph winds this weekend. At night it is a little on the cool side walking around.I leave in about 27 hoursT-shirts and jeans mostly for me...
Cool, Thanks for the advice. I'll be bringing some long-sleeve shirts as well, but someone will have to drag my ### away from the tables for me to care about the wind.I've been working in LV this week - only thing I would be aware of is the wind.

I can imagine those umbrellas becoming a javelin in high winds.Pools in LV have been known to close for excessive winds.ffldrew said:I've been working in LV this week - only thing I would be aware of is the wind.

Jeans and t-shirts during the day. It gets chilly out here at night so I'd recommend a light coat or thermal shirts to keep you warm if you're running up and down the strip. Unfortunately it seems like it'll be a bit chilly for the pool. Weather would have been perfect last weekend if it was about 5-8 degrees warmer.Chunky Soup said:

Wouldn't that be like worlds colliding? woz + safari? I will give it a try GB, but first round's on you Mr. Attorney.I'll be there most likely. When is labor day?I'm going over Labor Day Weekend when I'll be 21. Anyone want to cornhole?
Venetian right next door, probably with doable table limits that night. Gondola ride there too for you and the wife...not sure how much that costs though.
Does this even run anymore? I'd do some cirque show or something like that. They can be $$$, but lots of deals out there.
Yeah, just saw them last weekend. Just an option that probably takes less time than a show and he's right there. Never done it though, but looks
I've stayed there twice, although it was like 7-10 years ago. Definitely in the discussion when you have a budget in mind. Not sure about the pool question. Good places to eat there imo (including an espn zone which could be something solid for the kids), a fun piano bar for some entertainment, and a roller coaster that I've never rode. I think Zumanity is still the show there, sorta strange but if you go, go a bit early (lol). Negatives would be arguably one of the worst sportsbooks on the strip imo and sort of a crammed feeling on the casino floor, but that might not matter in December. Probably one of the better environments for your teenagers I'd think, I'm sure some others could chime in there. Pretty good location on the strip too since I'm assuming you'll venture out with the family.
I don't think they have a poker room, if I recall correctly, so if you like to play poker you would have to go somewhere else. But I do like the pizza at the food court.
I believe you are correct. Another good, or I guess bad, point if that's important.
Excalibur is like a 500 foot walk across the street and their poker room is as
as they get for low stakes.
MGM is across the street too - lots of actionculdeus said:Excalibur is like a 500 foot walk across the street and their poker room is asBobcat10 said:as they get for low stakes.
The Gondola ride is still active. Looked romantic.
My room at Harrah's was ajoining...but that's well below 250/nt. Although, it is amazingly easy access from Harrah's to Venetian/Mirage (and alot of cheap food to be had in between).Any suggestions for a place that may offer adjoining rooms at a decent rate?We have 4 or 5 guys heading out in June. One suite probably wont cut it. Looking to spend 250 a night or so.
ok, may have just been the times of day I went by and saw them all tied up with no activity.

That had a nice deal at the Hilton, where I want to stay, but some of my days are blacked out. Dammit.
