Jesus Christ it's frickin freezing in here

Seems both the room and your first bullet was cold! Hopefully the second one goes better.

The Mob Museum was awesome, I done the Crime Lab and Distillery experiences I love all that prohibition and Al Capone era **** lolWent to Guy Fieri's Flavortown for dinner, got the brisket nachos and omg they were best thing i've ever had, $60 with a beer was well worth it Currently waiting for a seat for 1/3 game so I can finally play some POKER!

Wait, $60 for Nachos and a Peroni?


Aye including taxes and tip

Bit expensive but i'm on holiday so 😃


Got 49k at the 2nd break, coming back to 800/1,600, average is 53k

Feel like i'm playing well, best hand i've had on my 2nd bullet was 7s which I won a nice pot with, just trying to play ABC positional poker seems to be working so far.

Hopefully I can get a few hands in the next session!


Was hoping to get a chili dog at Noah's (or is it Nosh? Can't tell) but they weren't ready yet so got a french toast muffin instead was nice



Sigh just lost a 60k flip JJ v AK, down to 20k now


late joining the POG rail

and if you already think of it as nacho money
might as well briskly take them chips to the tables with a chance for profit instead of using a bog roll of bills to wipe the fiery arse of some guy who ate the same thing


That's me done, AT v A7 aipf bloody two 7s on the flop lol

Will get another chance on Saturday as i'm playing Flight D

Welcome to the Paris Ballroom! I think it doubles as the Golden Knights practice arena when the WSOP isn't running.


$60 nachos make me very sad.

This was my initial reaction as well.

But the bolded!

I'd easily pay $60 for the best thing I've ever had--particularly if it was filling as this appears to be.

I want one! And I'd pay cold hard cash for it!


It looks like it would be very messy. I assume you eat it with your fingers?


Damn, those 7s on the flop. GGs POG. Seems like you played well, best we can do.

I checked into the Aria today and I'll be in there with you on Flight D. Keep us posted!


I used a knife and fork, hate eating with my hands lol

Had a walk around Miracle Mile shops and saw a lobster place which is my favourite (expensive taste I know) and got some lobster tacos and a beer for $38, they were absolutely delicious had some sort of cheese and spicy mayo as well yum


Plan for tonight is play some 1/3 or 2/3 cash again at the Horseshoe


please include prices with all food pics!

Good luck in the cash games POG. How is the 2/3 at the Horseshoe these days?


by pig4bill

Where was that, that lets you run it twice at 1/3?

by POGcrazy94

Horseshoe, not sure it was allowed but whole table agreed and dealer didn't care lol

I would strongly advise against running it more than once if the room doesn't allow it. I've heard that there are people who agree on running it twice and then proceed to claim the whole pot after they win the first board, because the floor can't rule against them. You'd have to run really bad to have scum like that at your table, but better safe than sorry, I'd say.


Can't remember much about last night tbh my head is banging, glad I drank water between each drink otherwise i'd feel 100x worse lol

Think I cashed out for $200 loss, went to Pai Gow table and spun $100 up to $600 or so before I lost it all at blackjack and baccarat, Pai Gow is my new favourite game I love it

Went to Hoover Dam today was a VIP tour with lunch included, was brilliant I love all that feats of engineering and history **** lol

Going to see Penn and Teller tonight, loved watching them on TV

Had spaghetti and a coffee for lunch



Some photos from Hoover Dam trip

You could always pay $300 for an iv.


Saw Penn & Teller many years ago. Fun show, hope you have as good a time as I did.

Hoover Dam pretty interesting. The "seeps" kind of freaked me out a little. Isn't this thing supposed to be watertight?


I think Hoover Dam is paid for. One of the few govt projects that has turned enough profit to pay for it's construction.


Yesterday was brutal, I was sick just before leaving for Penn and Teller but felt fine afterwards so I went but it just got worse when there, had to leave to go to bathroom a few times then eventually just gave up and left half an hour in :( the few tricks I did see were great though.

Got an uber back to the hotel and I just made it, spewed everywhere soon as I opened the door and to make matters worse I couldn't just go straight to my room cos I realised my phone had fallen out and still in the car so spent half an hour trying with no avail to get in touch with uber/driver but everyone just said I need to phone them oh aye let me phone them with my lost phone ffs frustrating as hell.

Went to bathroom and it came out both ends this time so decided **** this am going to bed, must've gotten up 4/5 times to be sick but I feel a bit better now at least, defo not well enough to play Flight D so will just have to give it a miss, relax and take it easy today.

I do have another phone (this one which has no number as sim card slot broke so just wifi) but I can only seem to get a wifi connection at 1 specific area in the lobby, sat there for about an hour installing uber trying to get into my account but guess what? You need a code from your phone or email and I can't login to my email without a phone verification code either of course why is nothing easy lol

Finally found someone useful when a manager came to help, nice guy in lost and found typed in all details I knew (I remembered drivers name and car type/colour which helped) and eventually he was able to get the driver to contact him and he'll phone my room once he hears anything, I hope the phone is still there it has all my important apps like WSOP+ and banking apps etc so touch wood I get it back

What a palaver


Man, that really sucks. I'm glad you're here for a long visit so it doesn't totally **** the entire vacation.
