    You shoulda set up the online account your first day there... you could then place all of the sports bets you want while still laying in bed (or while sitting on the throne). Cash out at the nearest WH book before you head out of town!

    At the sportsbook again. Girlfriend taking a nap. I feel so bad for the staff at the sportsbook when people want to make bets and just say they want x team to win and have no idea what the ticket # is and don’t know the difference between the point spread and ML.

    So went to Golden Nugget to use the $25 matchplay for LVA and ACG. Girl laughed; I said what’s up, she’s like want Golden Gate, this is Golden Nugget. I asked if all the Goldens are the same; she said no dice. She asked if I still wanted a card, I asked if there was any promos and she said it came with a $10 matchplay. So I did it. Played blackjack and won. Boooooo ya grandma.

    Then went to Golden Gate to play my two $25 matchplays. Went to find an empty Bj table because I hate being that guy to play two hands and then leave middle of the shoe. This young blonde girl was there so I was like cool. I got 20, she got 17. Paid me $25 on my $25 bet and I said I got matchplay. She said what. I said I got matchplay. She said I got 20, not matchplay. I’m beside myself because it’s just us at the table. She gets the boss girl and she says it’s a matchplay and I get my extra $25.

    I play $25 again for my last matchplay. I make a six card 21. She tried taking my hand away, and I said that’s 21. She said it’s 24. I said that’s 21. She stared at the cards like a fat kid stares at cake, and was like no. That’s 24. The grandma boss girl comes again and saves the day and is like he has 21. She paid me the $50 on my $25 bet. I left after that. So awkward!

    Plan tonight is to play some Bingo at the Plaza with my gf. We got a coupon for $25 freeplay at Bingo. So we are going to play Bingo, then dinner at Main St Buffet, then taking her to the Friends Musical because she’s obsessed with that show. It’s a surprise, hopefully she likes it.

    This would be me. Hence the reason I never bet sports. Enjoying the report. Good luck with the shopping and gamble.

    I don’t like to discuss religion on this board, but at MGM try smiling and ask nicely if there are any upgrades available, because it’s your honeymoon. Just as likely to work.

    Damn. Edmonton going to cost me that hockey parlay. Would have been good.

    Buffet at Main St was meh. A lot of the food was cold. Our server tho was an old man and really nice, so we tipped him almost more then the entire meal. Really nice dude. All the other younger servers weren’t doing much but our old man was always taking the plates away and filling up our drinks. We told him he’s fly and he said what. He really appreciated the tip.

    Now we are on our way to Plaza for Bingo

    I can’t believe we are in Las Vegas and playing Bingo haha. I tried explaining Craps but my gf would say 7 too much and everyone gave us the stink eye. So we went to Plaza and playing Bingo. Had a $25 match play in the LVA. It’s us and a bunch of old people. They’re looking down on us because we are using the computer to keep track of our numbers and they’re all using the marker thing a ma bobber. I really hope we win bc you literally stand up and yell Bingo.

    I don’t understand basic strategy for Bingo. We are getting killed. These grandmas know basic strategy so much better.

    So we saw the Friends Musical. I thought it was horrible. I have never watched Friends tho so I didn’t get any of the jokes. About ten people left in the middle of the show lol. My girlfriend loved it tho, and that’s what matters. She’s obsessed with the show and couldn’t stop laughing. I tried to act interested but I was so tired that I fell asleep mid show and she had to wake me up because I was snoring too loud and I guess people heard me.

    We played some horse racing after at the D. None of our horses won. I blame basic strategy for that.

    After that, we wandered Fremont and saw some band playing. They were pretty cool.

    Then we were about to go to bed at Four Queens when there was an almost empty craps table. The min was $5, so I thought why not play. I finally got a chance to explain it to my girlfriend. She kept saying 7 and people throwing the dice were getting mad lol, and they crapped out like 3 shooters in a row. Then when it came to me, I let my girlfriend roll. She threw a 7 first roll and we won. Then she rolled an 8, and said I want to throw a 7 right? Everyone was scared and didn’t put anything on the board, then she rolled an 8, and everyone cheered, lol. She then rolled a 5, and again asked about rolling a 7, I’m trying to explain no, a 5 is good, and then she rolls a 5 and the table goes wild and starts to fill up. She rolls a 6; and doesn’t say anything because she gets it now, but then everyone on the table is egging her on to say the new catch phrase, “I want to throw a 7”, she says it, and of course first roll, she rolls a 6. I couldn’t believe it. I started pressing my bets, and she finally crapped out after like 8 points, and we made like $300 in 30 minutes. I just wish I placed the fire bet. Long story short, my gf now thinks Craps is the easiest game in the casino, fml

    Wicked end to the night tho. Tmw we are having breakfast downtown, then finally heading to MGM Signature and starting our four night stay there and exploring the strip.

    Your gal is going to be hooked at craps. And I don't think QQQQ has a fire bet. If you are looking for one, the only one I saw was at Green Valley Ranch in Henderson
