    My Trip Report

    I haven't done a TR in a while and figured I would document my short trip to Reno for the weekend. Drove up this AM. Dead tired this morning. I am double booked at Silver Legacy and Harrahs. Free play and resort credit at both places. Macy's gift card promo at Harrahs. Also have free tix to see Cheech and Chong tonight at SL. I think I'm going to only stay one night, but I'm booked at SL for two just in case.

    A few pics from the drive:

    First time staying at SL and the room isn't impressive at all. I didn't ask for any upgrades so I think this is just a basic room.

    TV had a problem earlier so I called down and waited for a tech to come up. Had to reset the system it looked like. After that I walked down to BofA to get cash. I really didn't want to walk around Reno with a lot of cash on me. Luckily the bank was only a few blocks away. Wasn't a half a block before someone asked me for money. Oh Reno....

    Decided to play some VP at the sports book bar at SL. 9/6 DDB was the initial game of choice. They have a quarter progressive so I stuck with that. Started with a Bloody Mary and then had a Lagunitas IPA.

    Slow bleed at VP. Switched to $1 and no dice. Not one 4oak. Time to go walk around and see if I can check in at Harrahs. I'm not able to access my free play at SL so I need to check on that too.

    Found out my free play was actually chips so that's why I couldn't access it on the machine. Time to win a car.

    That's my problem with Legacy too..we've stayed there four times and EVERY time we get a crummy room..I think all their rooms are just TINY (in fact, the smallest standard room in Reno, aside from Harrahs)

    EDIT: Please keep this live! It helps my addiction, till August!
    Thanks!

    and G'Damn! At $25 LIR, in RENO I'm surprised they're not treating you like a God!

    Nice hit at LIR!

    That sportsbook looks like the bar I saw from a pic on another forum showing they had rogue farms 7 hop IPA. Since you picked Lagunitas, I'd recommend trying the 7 hop if they have it.

    Keep the wins coming!

    That was the only IPA they had Tring! Don't worry, I asked. Terrible run at LIR. Down so far. Hope I make it back though. Waiting on a HP at SL.
