    My Trip Report

    Hello all,
    Hope everyone is doing well and healthy!
    Going to make an attempt at a live trip report. This TR will be a little different, going to give you more than measly words this will be a picture and video TR. Less verbiage and more pics and videos except for this opening rundown.

    Leaving tomorrow morning from BUR and will be at the Tower suites pool by noon.
    I'm going solo ish... The ish is @VegasBJ and his family. Hate going solo especially if you lose early on. That's one reason why I'm doing this TR, it will keep me busy and not bored. My other friends canceled on me so now vegasbj and his wife will have no choice but to put up with me all weekend lol..
    Oh, the mask mandate will be a hassle but I'll deal.
    Agenda,
    Staying at, surprise, Wynn in the tower suites and have a Parlor suite which is overkill for a solo trip. Only reason I wanted the parlor is for the couch and TV. Ryder cup and football is a must watch especially the Ryder cup.
    I have 4 8th row tickets (on the aisle) to Lionel Friday night. BUT might give the tickets up due to nobody wanting to go.
    Dinner at SW Friday night for 6.
    Saturday, vegasbj and I were going to golf Wynn and Sunday Shadow but both closed boo.. vegasbj is going to golf at TPC but I'm not up for that so no golf for me. Pool instead as its going to be a perfect 92 degrees.
    I'm really looking forward to Saturday night. We have reservations at Delilah for 6 of us. That should be a blast.
    Sunday might go to the raiders game but probably just watch on TV. Dinner Sunday will be Sinatra for my favorite, Veal Parm of course with extra sauce on the side!
    Also have tickets for Manilow but giving those up too for the same reason. I told vegasbj I'll take his better half to both shows but she turned me down too lol.

    As far a gaming, vbj and I seem to have luck playing bj together so that will definitely be happening. I will hit the craps table hard and play roulette to win 6 units at a time (pictured). (only 15 minute sessions at a time at roulette)
    Definitely going to go to Resorts World to play some high limit pitch with VBJ.

    Bank roll... I'm willing to lose up to 10-15 but hopefully that doesn't happen. I will play a total of 6 hours over 3 days and probably hit 6k ish in theo. I'm a creature of habit and got this down to a science.

    Any VMB ers around let me know. Let's play some sluts. Looking forward to high limit pinball and top dollar.

    I'm sure i missed some activities but will try to take you with me on this journey!

    Get ready for the pics and videos IF VIMEO WORKS! Please keep in mind video might be moving or lower to the ground due to being incognito.

    Wish us luck!

    I know I know systems don't work but in the short run I might have a fighting chance.

    Good luck and nice to see you posting again. Don’t give them the 10-15. Come out on the positive side of variance!

    So if I understand it correctly: there are ten numbers where you win $300 (including the original wager), twenty four numbers where you push, and three numbers where you lose (assuming a single zero wheel). Is that the jist of it :hmmm:

    Hi UK! Yes you got it. it's pretty simple and we both know one of those 3 who likely show up. But, hopefully not in the 15 min session. When you can make 20% of your wager in roulette each roll (1500 to win 300) that's kinda ok since I am hedging big time. Plus, I'm generating about 1200 in theo lol. Just need to hit one of 10 middle numbers about 10 times and there 3k! Rots o ruck I know.

    Didn't you use to stay at The Mansion in MGM? If so, what prompted the move? Oh, and good luck through the weekend!

    Coming into town Fri, probably a few hours behind you for an all DT trip*, staying at Circa,
    what do you think the Craps/BJ mins will be at Wynn this weekend,
    higher than ridiculous? at least 100 is my guess... please report.

    *might could trek to the strip if awake for a VMBer meetup w. the legends...
    wish I didn't miss the Wynn match, should have done it last trip..

    and btw, are you flying JSX BUR-LAS, and if not, why not? it's the best.

    Hopefully we will finally meet this weekend! I am in a Parlor Suite in Encore.

    PLEASE go to the Lionel Richie concert, even if you give back some of the tix. He is not performing anywhere on the planet after his Encore shows - almost of which are sold out -- until next summer, and that looks to be a European tour. I am going to the show on Saturday and Buble Friday.

    Love Barry Manilow. Saw him again last Friday. His show just makes you happy.

    Wishing you great luck and times this weekend!

    If it’s only the lack of company that’s stopping you, and the logistics work out, we’d love to accompany you ;) to that concert. My better half, P would probably love it. Shit. Better get to sleep. We’re driving.

    I was getting super psyched for the Golden Arm event at the Cal, then they short notice cancelled it, I can offer my best rolling Craps efforts for as long as I can afford it in trade.. :cool::D

    hope we can meet up, I imagine DT is not at all in your plans though.
    20x odds at newly reopened Main Street Station and a Hawaii Craps Shooter (a youtube channel of Hawaiians) meetup at the Cal Sun 2-4pm is in my plans.

    Best of luck Packer - looking forward to following along - we all know roulette systems don't work (thats doesn't mean they are not great fun to attempt) - I am going to do a 15 min session in an online casino as per your example above for the laugh tonight - if it wins I'll report back!

    Have a great trip

    Craps minimums at wynn? The hotel is sold out actually over sold so high. But I'm sure there will be 25.00 table available. I'll let you know by 2pm.

    Jet suite x... yes I fly them when it's 99 ir up to 200 each way but at 350 one way not gonna do it. Plus being 6'5" is a sardine situation so no big deal. I have southwest down to a science, always pre board and sit in the bulkhead. First one on first one off.

    Have a great time!

    Meeting up would be great. Let's do it.
    Lionel and Manilow both are classic. Over the years I've seen Manilow a dozen times. Any live show is fun and these 2 are music legends especially Manilow. But not top of my concert going list so I can take it or leave it. Can you believe Manilow is 80 ish?
    Good luck to you too! See you there..

    For a hit and run, it seems like a decent hedge. Good luck :thumbsup:

    Go to the cal I know some setters that will be rolling there (Hawaii craps, good people). Not opposed to coming downtown at all. Just not enough time though. Sunday I wanted to come to the meet up but watching the Ryder cup at that time or maybe go to the raider game.

    Cars, yes I'm still in the business but it's a very very difficult time for the auto industry with no inventory. I have bmw and lexus dealers who usually have 300 news car available an be today they have 30 lol. And folks, it isn't getting better for at least another year unfortunately. That said we can try and find her the car she wants. I've been doing this for 25 years so if Antin me can find one I will! And a decent deal.

    Yep hope to see you and at least shake hands (first bump these days lol)
    Best of luck to you!!
