    My Trip Report

    My first day at V/P summed up in an email from my host:

    Hi Pete,

    Right now we have your average bet at $798 for 9 hrs 23 min. Your loss is at 21,354 and theo loss is at 4,564. If you are going to any restaurants on property please charge them to your room and I’ll comp them off before you check out based on play. Also if you need reservations anywhere please let me know. I can always send a comp out too if you prefer that!

    Sincerely,
    Leslie Smith

    I'd hate to see how much more you're willing to lose. Hopefully your luck turns around!

    Shyeah! At that much, I'd expect they may send hookers to your room!

    Sadly, I tend to end up better in the end when I start out with a loss than starting off winning. I might still be down at the end, but so far my comebacks have been better than donk-offs. Have your comeback dinner and start booking those wins!

    It's never fun to lose money, but at least it's your first day, not your last day. Hopefully you'll win it back and some to take home. If not, at least have fun.

    I wish I have your bankroll or even 1/3 of that.

    Sucks. :( My pattern is like sindustry's. I often have bad day 1s and comeback. This last trip may have my first day 1 win. But I lost in the end...

    If someone can show me how to post pics I will. Thought it was easy but I guess not.

    Took a break from V/P and headed down to MGM. Walked up to an empty $25 Craps table with my last 8k in cash on me, went $25 each on all the features, $800 outside $150-8, I proceeded to hit the Small in about my first 8 rolls with 3 4s. Small paid $875 and I took the 4 up to $500. I hit a 10 then I passed. On the come out roll I hit a 11-12, then a 9 leaving only the 8 to hit all the feature. I thought about laying the 8 but said screw it and let's see what happens. Well my next 4 rolls were all 4s. At this point two other people join the table. I was like come on give me the dice ( you all know that feeling). Again laying the 8 crossed my mind, well wouldn't you know I throw the dice and it hits one of the guys placing a late come bammmmm 8!!!! I believe for both it was a little over 5k. I jumped up and down like a little kid ( been a long time since I've been that excited) the rest is a blur I kept rolling and rolling and rollingwhen I finally 7-out I ended up cashing out for 42k and some change. My biggest single score ever. Cashed out some of the chips, tried to have my friend cash some for me, that didn't work lol. The roller coaster ride that is craps is brutal but I love it.

    Sitting back in my room, smoking an Opus X I picked up at Casa Fuente with some Scotch ready to call it a day. My 38 year old heart can't take these swings :) I'll be up at 5 AM hitting the craps table again. Look for the 6'2" mexican with a big smile if any of you are awake at the time at V/P and want to pla some craps. I have zero charges to my room I guess I should order something just because....

    I am so glad for you!!! And . . . it was at a different casino so V/P can't/won't hold it against your losses.

    Awesome roll!! There really is no better feeling than a hot streak on the craps table. Don't let them have it back!!

    Nice comeback!

    Not sure why you tried to have a friend cash the chips?

    That and structuring your cash outs to stay under 10k is a quick way to land a SAR...

    Sweet comeback!

    I am a low roller and not in your universe, but if I am losing my ass the last thing I want is an email from a host or casino telling me how much I have lost.

    Shifter- I purchased a rolex Daytona of him and thought I could pay him with chips.

    Johnzimbo- I asked her to email, I learned from this board that it's important to keep track

    Ok I downloaded tapltalk, have pics on my phone I've been taking. How do I post them?

    Decided to sleep in and order some room service. Much needed sleep!!! I scheduled some service with Canyon Spa Ranch. This should help me come up with a game plan for the day.
    Does anyone know if I can use my comps and charge other people's bill to my room? Could I go to lunch and tell the waitress, "bring me those four tables bills and charge my room? I'm staying by myself and would hate not to charge anything besides one order of room service. Last trip I played 20hours at same rate and only used $26 in comps.
