Day 5
Meets:
Dining:
After gambling and drinking all day without eating we all decided to go eat over at the 777 Brew Pub again. I had the 4-cheese pizza. It was good but very heavy and filling.
Gaming:
After lunch I played a little 9/6 jacks or better because the FPDW machines were all taken. I started out pretty good not losing much and staying right around even. I caught a few quads and even a straight flush but after 2 hours I ended up losing for the session and decided it was time to take a break.
After the break I went back down to the casino and met up with The Bostons, Yahtzee, and Caveman. I played the 9/6 jacks or better slant tops again. This session started out rough with my $100 turning into $17 with very little action. A few quads and a bunch of full houses put me back in the game though. After a mega 5-hour session I cashed out even and had $28 in scratch cards. Jeff was sitting next to me and hit a quad. When he got his scratch card it was worth $50! Dawn was sitting on the other side of me and was a little luckier. She hit a royal flush.
After we ate me, Mike and Caveman hit the craps table. While we were playing dumb Rich walks up as Mike is shooting and says call everything off. The next number will be 7. Sure enough Mike 7’s out. We were going to beat the crap out of Rich after that little stunt. This table was choppy and Mike and Caveman lost and headed up to bed. I was doing a little better but eventually got wiped out. What really hurt this session was the shooter that hit 6 nines in a row and I had no action on the 9. Of course a 7 followed his 6 nines.
Total win/loss for the day -$100
Saturday March 27, 2004
Went to a meet today at Main Street Station’s Triple 7 Brew Pub. This meet was organized on the Las Vegas Talk Discussion Board and the Las Vegas Advisor Message Boards by me and Yahtzee. There was no turn out for this meet other than all of us so it turned out to just be lunch.
During the meet we had lunch at the 777 Brew Pub. I had the filet mignon sandwich. It was as good as usual and priced right at about 9 bucks.
I started out the morning by going over to the Las Vegas Club to sign up for a slot card and play on their promotion to get a MVP Pass. It’s a program where you earn 4,000 points over a 3-day period and get a free 3-night stay any day of the week good on a future trip. I dropped $120 playing some video poker. I moved over to the craps table and bought in for $100. The table was ice cold and I dropped the $100 without getting paid. I decided to switch to the don’t side and bought on for another $200. After about an hour no one wanted to shoot anymore and I walked away with a $300 win at the table. This was only about the 4th or 5th time I ever played the dark side and I have never lost.
Total comps for the day $133
