    Dr. Walnut taught you better than that. Chug a jack and pedialyte, grab a burger, watch some Eurocup, rub some dirt on it, and get back in there!

    Ah, yes. USA Poker (aka "All American Poker"), a game where full houses, flushes, and straights all pay the same. That really seems unlike the USA imo.

    The "full pay" version (100.72%), pays 8 for 1 for all three of those hands with quads at 40 for 1. You were playing the Stage Door acceptable 96.26% version. :evillaugh:

    Keep it up! Looks like you guys are having a blast!

    One time I was so f-ed up playing poker at MB, somehow my friend got me back to NYNY (didn't know where my room was, and it took a half-hour to get me beck into my room). I remember waking up still f-ed up and peeing on the clock radio thinking it was the toilet. Went back to bed and found that the clock radio wasn't working.

    Those photos of Gambling James in the water feature beside the escalator are hysterical. Did he really fall in there?

    Just remember that when you blackout it’s always stuff you don’t want to remember anyways.

    This particular post reminded me of a scene in my very favorite movie of all time, 'The Police Academy 2: Their First Assignment'.

    1:13 in, Zed pretty much sums it all up.


    Fine work, gentlemen. Fine work.

    Blackouts are just a form of time travel. Thankfully(?) cell phone pics can fill in the gaps. Enjoying your escapades. I've thrown back a few tonight. Upstairs at my house needs new flooring. Considering peeing everywhere upstairs. :drunk:

    Today was indeed a very mild day. I didn’t even have a drop of alcohol. I’ll wrap up the days events with a few pictures but not many. I always forget to take pictures of the different places I wander to.

    The morning started off with Waldo, Earl, Wendell, and Uncle Hep sharing stories of our drunk antics. I think between all of us we could piece most of the night together. What a riot….such a fun night. Big time paying for it today. Around 10am we left the room and we had to say goodbye to Uncle Hep. Flying home.

    Waldo and Wade went to Ellis Island for steak and eggs breakfast early, then headed to OYO, NYNY, Excalibur for coupon run and to buy Win Cards.

    Earl, Wendell, GJ, and Sleve went to Ellis around 10:30am while Lenghty Mike played poker.

    Another terrific cheap breakfast. Watched Wendell and Gamblin’ James play some 100 hand VP for a while before heading back to Bally’s. Wendell, Wade, Waldo, Earl got about an hour of pool time in. So mellow compared to our usual Flamingo pool spot.

    Cool little Bloody Mary bar inside Ellis Island.

    Left the pool around 3:30 and met up with GJ and Sleve for some In n Out burger for lunch. Always enjoy that stuff.

    From In n Out, we made our way to Venetian so GJ could get a chip for his collection. We wandered through the casino and it is just an incredible sight.

    Somehow found our way out of there and walked across the street to Mirage. Immediately took the tram to Treasure Island. First time riding that tram.

    Eventually the gang made its way back to Flamingo, where we tried our luck at $5 bubble craps. Once again, a terrible run at dice for Earl. On such a bad run lately.

    Ok I am literally falling asleep writing this. I’ll finish the update first thing in the morning.

    With the utmost repect,
    I submit this question/setup for a joke:

    “How many drunk self proclaimed rednecks does it take to get a Royal?”


    Hope to hear a profanity laden answer soon !

    You went a day without drinking any alcohol in Vegas? Even I didn't do that this last trip. Vegas days are too long for me to do that. Now I didn't get totally wasted every day. Just some...

    One of the best things about this board is the great variety of trip reports.

    On the one hand we have the grace, class, and elegance of a Not at the table Carlos report.

    On the other hand we have the drunken debauchery of a Flowers report.

    Wait, I’m being told I might have those two mixed up.
