    Once again, sorry to advise anybody what to do, but 17 trips to Vegas in one year, and that's not even taking into consideration all the visits to the local casinos, is a sign of a problem gambler. Even with a winning record, this is a recipe for disaster. Now everybody is giving him great advice, but I remember reading all the people begging PP to get on a plane and keep coming back to Vegas on a weekly basis. You guys didn't see a problem coming? The handwriting was on the wall. Please take care of yourself PP. I love all your trip reports, but please take a break and enjoy some other non gambling activities.

    Odds that he stays away from a casino for more than 5 weeks: 10:1.

    More like 1000:1, though I won't actually bet it because he will take the action....

    Natedog. I need the keys to your Ferrari I want to take it out and try to do this

    Leslie Chow and I was laying odds on if I will not be back before New Years. He said 50-1. So 100 will win 5000.

    I said 5-1. So 100 will win you 500.

    If I will be back? You would need to lay 1-15.

    1500 to win 100. My odds

    LC. 1-1000. So 10000 to to win 100


    Yea I booked a ticked next week and this weekend too. LOL.

    I'm such a degenerate

    Question is will I get on the plane.

    Answer is no this weekend.

    But 3 more other weekends and. Half a week.

    I'm taking a break from Vegas I did the two month ban in March so I was able to do it last time

    In March you went to Shreveport instead. Self awareness is the first step.

    I don't know PPHOLD and have never met him but 17 trips in one year is crazy. I have been to Vegas 7 times in 26 years. I can't imagine being there that many times. Hope you make the best choice for you.

    I think you and others might be surprised on how many trips to vegas some on this site have taken this year. Especially those within a few states of Nevada. It is one of our hobbies.

    Good point Packer! I am from Canada and I went 8 times in one year, 2011 I think. I mean how could I say no to $100 flights to go to Vegas for the weekend. I mean yeah I was rolling the dice on the Allegiant plane crashing. That being said I also had budgets for the trip, left the big credit cards and debit card to checking account at home. It is about being responsible and not losing control IMHO, once you cross that line you need to reevaluate things. I haven't been to the local casino for 3 years and Vegas gambling is about the extent of any gambling I do.
