    Thoughts on Park MGM

    Nicely done on the remodel, comfortable bed and amazing water pressure in my 25th floor room. Casino hardly was dead. If it were not for the terrible experience with the desk I would consider the property again. After I eat I am going to go settle up and get ready to move

    Not a lot to report. Lost a ton at blackjack and made $85 at Paigow but way way down. Spent about 45min at the pool and now just gonna relax and enjoy the sights and sounds of Fremont.

    Yes. Most trips are money losers. Some, luckily few, are real stinkers. Always good to have a contingency plan in the background. For me, I rent a car and take off to see some of the interesting things outside of the Las Vegas valley. I, also, bring a book and swimsuit (I'm not a pool person) and take evening strolls just sizing up the people on the sidewalks. My photography sucks.

    Careful, or you may start looking at every shiny piece of marble on the strip with a Jaundiced eye.
    If you are still on freemont, you can always choke down to min $5 bets, and try to drink your way even.

    What are you playing?, (sorry if I missed it), the swings sound like BJ.

    If you're really down, go drink 10x what you put into Sigma Derby. ;)

    Sorry you're having a roller coaster trip. I hate when the Gambling Gods forsake me for a full trip. A down day is to be expected, but that endless thwacking is brutal. I usually have a car with me, so like @smerrian I get out of town for a bit. Go for a hike, see some scenery, etc. Any of the downtown museums you're interested in? Neon Museum? Mob Museum? Pinball HOF isn't terribly far away.

    Hitting the Fremont area with my camera.


    The Grand is funny. They are showing me as a winner and I had to fight to get a food credit here.

    These are taken with the iPhone. Back in that room resting for now. Sadly it’s noisy with the stage from Fremont street going. Dinner was a couple slices from pizza rock. Tomorrow I am doing Freedom beat

    Liked the pics. The painted ladies were a fun show. Down $4,000. That's a shit-show. I've had trips that match; thankfully only 2 in about 20 years...but it happens. Lick your wounds. Rare to win a lot, rare to lose a lot.

    Just woke up. Last day in town, in 24hrs I should be boarded on the plane.

    Did get my refund back from Park today. Not sure what if anything I’m going to do today. Not really wanting to hit up that atm but part of me wants one last hoorah and hope, who knows.
