    Massive thunder clouds are rolling through and they are kicking everyone out of the pool area for 30min

    Time for me to venture on over to Planet Hollywood and see if I can check in early

    Made it to Planet Hollywood. Room was ready. Diamond registeration is hidden behind a pillar with a small sign and one person working it while 5 people with badges just chatted. Room pics coming up.

    I am a huge fan of this room. Only bad thing is the lack of natural light in the living room area but whatever. The bathroom is pretty amazing in my opinion

    Also this tub blows anything I've seen in a hotel room out of the water. I think 4 plus people can fit in it. Might need to find some guests :shy:

    There's like a fucking monsoon coming through weather says 60+ MPH winds and it's just dumping rain. It looks small on the radar but this is nuts lol

    Enjoying your pics and report. Had the same sort of weird storm here in OC last pm. Very rare to have thunder, lightning and heavy downpour like that here. Following, good luck the rest of the way! :D

    Lose $800 on Ultimate Texas Hold em in 12min?

    Wouldn’t be me.

    Go to the table next door and play High Card Flush and lose $700 in 22min?

    Definitely wouldn’t be me

    The worst part about that was the pit boss was too busy with soft change and didn’t even come around to rate me. Fucking bullshit

    Time for some moral redemption at Video Poker

    Video Poker bent me over for another $500

    Fucking love it. Gonna cool off and grab some nice conditioner at the miracle mile. My curly hair requires it regularly and the one in the room sucks ass. Maybe I’ll find a cheap bar in there too.

    Pissed and I always tell myself to not gamble pissed and I did a little of that today.

    I though most of PHo’s table games had the computers that the dealers can swipe your card. Paris and Bally’s don’t but I thought PHo did. That’s part of the reason I try to make sure a pit boss sees me sit down so they don’t miss swiping my card in.
     
    Happy birthday to me!
    Let’s check Garth off my nieces bucket list!

    The dealers swiped me in. There are computers right next to the dealer but the pit boss did not acknowledge my players card or my money in. Don’t know what the system is or if the dealer punches in my buy in at least.

    I’m fairly certain they enter your buy in too.

    I like PH but like you, have also had that problem there, 2 weeks ago in fact. This was earlier in the morning but the pit over my last few trips at PH has been, well, let’s say not on top of it.
