In Vegas from Fri-Tue over MLK weekend.

Land after good Delta flight and get rent-a-car, I was amazing at how the airport and rent-a-car center ran like a well oiled machine.

I never ate at IN AND OUT before....after the weekend, I ate there three times. GREAT STUFF.

Played at The Flamingo, limit and was up $10 with tons of drinks....Lynn was a great cocktail server.

Next day watched Indy-Balt...lost tons of sports bets. Ravens, Arizona, Dallas and SD killed me all weekend.

Later that night, I played at O'Shea's while drinking Guiness...felt like I was in college again. Again broke even with tons of drinks.

Sunday I drove all over Vegas. Checked out M Casino which was very swank then checked out The Red Rock Casino. Red Rock was pretty awesome. Checked out the Pawn Stars place Silver and Gold. There was a line out the door. Next day stopped back with no line...man the place looks bigger on TV.

Headed downtown, shrimp cocktail at Golden Gate and deep fried twiggy at Mermaids along with cards at Golden Nugget....broke even.

Ate at Battista's hole in the wall (walked from Flamingo). Great Old School Itailian food.

This will prove I'm a dumbass, as I missed the shuttle from Bill's to The Orleans for the HORSE tourney, so I walked it. Lot's of wine and great Itailian food shouldn't be followed up by a long walk.

HORSE tourney was very fun...lots of locals. Busted out with 10 people left out of 40 players.

Ate at the Burger Joint at Flaminago...good late night drunk food but didn't get a order right after two visits. The cheap burgers even it out... no IN AND OUT burger but it was good for the price.

Played at Monte Carlo nice little room. Broke even

Played at Aria poker tourney, beautiful casino, kind of hard to get to the casino when walking through the Belliago. Busted out thrid level, flopped trips vs. flopped straight....I'm a bad player, took a little time, called his hand, stated "I have outs", called, did improve, said "good day" and walked back to the Flamingo. There was a cocktail waitress at the Aria (I didn't get here name) but she was "sexy". There was something about her, but she had "it". I will never drink more cokes in a hour an a half like I did that day.

Played BINGO at Palace Station twice....love BINGO. Nice way to kill two hours in Vegas.

Played tourney at Mirage monday night. Fun tourey, good staff. Pushed with JJ's called with KQ flopped K...I'm out.

Sum up report.....won at IN AND OUT, lost my ass betting sports, broke even in limit cash game, close but no cigar in tourney's, lost in BINGO, I won with adult beverage even if I had to sacrifice my liver. I can't wait to go back without the sports betting.

Great Report. I am taking 3 women with me to vegas in March and i have NO idea where to put them, since they dont play poker. Thanks to your report, I just realized i can put them in BINGO, while i go play poker. In and Out Burgers are the BEST!!! We do not have them in Washington, so I grab at least one, every time i come to vegas. I usually get the double double and regret it afterward (they are huge), and I promise myself I will never order a double double again.... alas..... I can not wait to get to that drive through and order a double double and take it to my room. Thanks again for the report Tabbyc

No doubt about it, you are a dumbass. That is one hell of a long walk.
