    Well, did you actually see a woman in there? Maybe you caught him red handed, if you know what I mean. That would make no the winning bet right?:stir:

    I read a book about the tunnels under Vegas. Interesting read. Don't remember the name or author.

    I would love to read if you could ever come across the name. Or if you remember any info on why they are there. I've heard a few different things from Vegas employees

    Major thanks to all who followed along. It's really fun to share our experiences in Las Vegas. I WISH I knew about these when I was still single. Not because I hooked up with tons of girls....but the few I did, the stories leading up were amazing. I also had an incredible partner that came with...Wendal. He can't make it out much due to having a family and doing a great job raising his two kids.

    Any feedback negative or positive would be wonderful. (Negative even better. I love negative feedback on how to improve on things?)

    Did anyone enjoy the Snapchat? I didn't use it a lot and am just an amateur with it.

    Cheers everybody!!!!

    Correct. He made it out for my bachelor party. Funny story about him that trip. A few months before his goal was to convince wife for three days out in Vegas, then "accidentally" book the flight for 4.

    Luckily he didn't have to because wife gave the go ahead for 4 days. The day to go home comes around and he is having trouble checking into his flight. That's because he legitimately accidentally booked his flight a day late. Boy did he get a butt chewing!!!

    I applaud you for saying it this way. But overall I really enjoyed the report and there isn't much real criticism to be found. Probably the biggest thing is I wanted even more updates! But it's tough to consistently update a live TR. Even though I didn't mind because you usually were playing the best VP choice at the bars, but it would also have been sweet if you could have hit Aces w/kicker on DDB! ;)

    For such a long stay and such a small bankroll, it's tough for me to stick to the higher variance VP games. Late in the trip I did blow about $150 on triple double bonus with no quads. I tried to play the best machines in the best places based on information you have shared. Granted I played a few awful machines simply based on opportunity.

    Yeah, if you're trying to stretch a BR, JoB/Bonus is definitely better. I experienced the "I can't lose much more in Vegas" status a couple of times. But they were only on the last day at least. But if I would have played things like DDB/TDB from the start, all bets are off.
