Day 13
Thursday August 18, 2005

Dining:
For lunch I actually had real food today instead of Pringles. At Mr. Lucky’s 24/7 I had the Grilled Chicken Sandwich. It’s a grilled chicken breast, bacon, lettuce, tomato and cheese on a roll and it comes with fries. The food was good and the service was much better than it was last night.

Dinner tonight was at the Hilton Steakhouse with my friend Anne, her friend Steve, and her mother. As always we requested our friend Mark the Waiter. Unfortunately he had to take the day off and we had another waiter. It just wasn’t the same without Mark there. The food was still very good though. I had the small prime rib and a side of creamed spinach. We were all too full for dessert so ended our meal there.

Gaming:
Today I started off with craps at the Hard Rock. No marker today since I still had a chunk left from last night. The tables started off choppy but leveled off. 2 shooters had good rolls and I had a fair roll hitting 3 points and a few numbers. It got cold for a while after this with shooters going right out. That sucks but as a come player it’s better they go right out than wait 3 rolls. One hot shooter brought the table back and I was ahead a little under a grand. I was going to quit but it was my turn to shoot. I should have quit. I shot myself in the head going out on my first roll after placing all the inside numbers. I finished the session with a little over $600 in winnings, paid off my marker and headed to lunch.

Total win/loss for the day: $650
Total comps for the day: $174
