Day 5
Sunday December 13, 2015
Once again today we started with a trip to the gym. After a quick workout we came up here and got cleaned up and then headed out to get something to eat.

For breakfast we hit the Cafe. I had the standard 2 eggs with corned beef hash and Dee had the Aquarius Omelet. Everything was fine as it usually is.

For gaming we started off with 8/5 bonus 5 play today. This time around it was very rough for me dropping close to $400 with very little play. Dee dropped a bill herself and I was not happy with the results considering I barely ran 1k through the machines. With only about $25 left on my meter I took a hail Mary attempt on Triple Double and landed a set of aces with no kicker on line 3 for $200 which started a major come back for me. Dee had a comeback of her own with a set of aces and numerous other quads. For me the quads finally started to come and so the did the dealt winners that were absent the last four days. I slowly crept the meter up back up to even, then up $100 then up $200 before it turned again. Dee also got up to even before her bleed started again. While she lost $200 I was able to quit up $100 for a $100 loss. While I would have rather won we did run 10k through the machines and only lost $100. This is more like what it should be!

We took a short break in the room and had a snack while watching some football.

After the break we played more video poker. We played more 5 play and this time not much happened. Dee was in for 3 bills and I was in for 4 bills before anything happened. Dee leveled off and hovered for a while. I still struggled and then switched to Spin Poker. I was hovering but oddly after about 3k in action had only hit one quad. I eventually busted out and between us dropped $600 for the session.

This was the last day we'd be playing on my card so I hit the players club and cashed in some points and got $500 in free play. We ran that through 50¢ 9/6 jacks or better and turned it into $550 thanks for dealt quads 3's, quad jacks on a single jack hold and a good number of full houses.

We had our play in for the day at this point so we came up to the room, grabbed a few things and headed up the hill to Harrah's. I have a 2 night reservation here that comes with $20 in food and $20 free play. We would only be spending one night here for a change of pace even though we're booked for 2 nights.

Checking in was quick in the Diamond/7* room and we were assigned room 11522 in the South Tower. When I booked my reservation I put in the comments section that I did not want anything in the North Tower. They obviously did honor this request. This suite is identical to most of the other suites we've had here. You enter through a living room that has a couch, chair, coffee table, flat screen TV and wet bar area with coffee maker and fridge.

The bedroom has a king bed with nightstands, a dresser and TV cabinet.

The bathroom has the vanity outside and a Jacuzzi tub. The inner part of the bathroom has the toilet and shower stall.

The view from this room sucks and is of the valet area and the other towers.

We took a short break in the room and headed back downstairs to get something to eat.

For dinner I had a reservation at the Range Steakhouse and we are going to use the $100 celebration voucher I got the other day at the Flamingo. I ordered the large filet mignon and Dee ordered the veal piccata along with an order of snails. We also got the au gratin potatoes and asparagus. Everything was good and Dee really enjoyed her veal dish.

We played a bit in the casino with poor results on the deuces machines. Typical for us once again losing at a 12% rate dropping $600 on 5k in action. Afterwards we packed it in for the night.
