    Great trip report! How were you able to get him to bump you up?!? I tried and was turned out, comp match only.

    I think you will really like the terrace suite! And, yes they have nickel Ultimate X, and they had plenty of them. Have a great trip!

    Thanks! I made the right choice on that hand then as I always went for the aces.

    Thanks! Getting up at 2:00 a.m. in Vegas isn't a big deal for me. I get up at 4:00 in MN, which is 2:00 in Vegas.

    Thanks Breanna! No worries on the quality of the Wicked Spoon. I'm just not very brave when it comes to food. I'm a simple woman :)

    LOL. You know, I have had a Bellini at the Bellagio, which was frozen and I liked it. But this wasn't frozen and wasn't even on ice. Served in a champagne flute and just didn't care for it. Next time, I will be better prepared on what fancy drinks to try.

    Thanks for coming over to VMB to read and comment. I wish there was an easier way to post pictures on TA. Hopefully the gambling gods will give you that hand pay soon :).

    Thanks so much! Even with the obstructed view, it was still awesome - especially when it was dark - which is usually when I'm out there.

    Thanks much! I'm not sure I deserve kudos. I think luck had far more to do with it :)

    Thanks! Nice to know I'm not the only one addicted to Ultimate X. It's pretty much ruined me for regular DDB poker. I have played Day of the Dead so many times, I never even notice if I'm playing it in Spanish or English :)

    Thanks! Happy to have you along :)

    Thanks! I don't know about the level bump. It was just part of the original offer - not something I asked for. Maybe he could see into the future and would know I was going to give them $82,000 coin in:). Yikes. That's almost scary!

    Thanks for the solo trip report. I'll be going to a convention this summer and I'll be going a bit early to enjoy some gambling, eating, sight seeing time solo. You've got me not so worried about being alone.

    I recycle most if not all of my slot wins thru. If I'm lucky enough to be hitting as I'm walking out the door then it's a winning trip. What was the room at MC like? any pics?

    Thanks much!

    Thanks. I love my solo trips. You will have a great time!

    LOL. Sorry, no pics of the MC - too busy messing up the bed. It was a room. Nothing special, but certainly more than adequate. You know I just was in a trip report that had pictures of the rooms at the MC, and remember thinking that it looked just like my room. Tried to find it but couldn't.

    Great trip report. I'm a few weeks out from my first stays at Aria then Cosmo. I'm a early rising east coaster so I also slot early in the mornings. I'm going to find those Siberian Storms and give them some play! Both love and hate that game! Did you play any quarter slots and have any luck? How about the Cosmo HL room? I'm sure I'll try wicked spoon at least once also. Thanks for the TR and congrats on coming home ahead!!

    Great report Josie!
    And I am really glad you had a wonderful and winning trip.
    A little surprised that you said it's your first winning trip(?). I believe everyone should have a 50-50 chance to come home as a winner.
    I always enjoyed my solo trips. Everything is much easier.

    Yes, I found five Siberian Storm machines. Plus one Day of the Dead, which is basically the same machine. I didn't spend much time in the high limit room. Don't really need to, as with multi-denomination machines, I can still bet $10 a spin, as you can see from hand-pay pics.

    I didn't see that many quarter slots. I found a Kronos machine, stuck $100 in, played 20 quarters - hit a bonus and cashed out $600. Also just play a 9 line reel machine at 18 quarters - stuck in $100 cashed out $600. That was the "Horseshoe up my bum" afternoon :)

    Have a great trip.

    Thanks JeJas. I have had trips where I've been lucky, and have brought home 1/2 my bankroll - but this was the first time I came home ahead money.

    Hmmm, I don't think I'd like it not frozen either. I'll have to hit the Bellagio I guess! Thanks for the info.

    Loved the report! I never have luck on Siberian Storm but I do like playing it. I don't think I've ever gotten a bonus. Maybe I should take a horseshoe along on our next trip...just in case I need it lol
