02202020 and 02222020 - two quads and a five of a kind

Giada’s was great. Nice setting, music, view and the food.

 

Went for a walk after Giada’s and ended up at Harrahs

 

did u use the the Giada's Groupon?

 

Moved to casino royale and enjoying the place. Pay tables

 

Shocking pay tables at Harrah's for $2

 

All CET bartop Game Kings offer the same paytables regardless of denomination from quarters to $5. I would try to get on a multiline game at CET instead.

 

No I didn’t know about that one

 

Glad I hit quads there, a couple times

 

And the IPA was really good

 

Caesars on the floor pay is better

 

After casino royale we hit Mirage and played slots a while without losing. Now at Caesars

 

Day 2 recap

We played at Caesars for awhile but didn’t make it into the cigar bar. After that we went back to Bally’s to hang out until BLT at 5:30

Dinner was great and slow as usual. Son and DIL split a steak and I had the salmon

I thought I had more photos only the awesome bread and a nice Zin

 

Sorry I missed your post yesterday. I’m sure adult beverages are to blame. I went back to Gustav bar this morning just to have more coffee. Exactly like you said about the concentrate. The bartender pulled the container out to show me.

Double Down was interesting. As soon ass we sat down. An old guy, well my age struck up a conversation with my DIL. He had been in Vegas three weeks and couldn’t bring himself to head back home. He lives in Michigan I think and waiting for warm weather

The guy to my left carried on a one way conversation with the bartender the whole time we were there. I think it was more of a drunk ramble

Decor is strange but kind of cool. I don’t know how to describe it and wish I took more photos

I would definitely suggest stopping in later in the day. VP was good I think DDB was 9/5 and our drinks were comped. We were thinking to try one of the Tiki bars but only made it here

 

So after dinner I hit the HL looking for Sparky but instead found a machine that like me. I was playing for TCs so played $5 BP and JOB. I lit a cigar and finished the whole thing before I left. Just over 1000 TCs and up about $600. So relaxing sitting in the back room, no other players with nice background music. Stopped by rewards desk and was over 3000 TCs so good for the day

Walked back to Paris to find my son and DIL only to catch them before another early night. (Lightweights) [emoji42]

No problem I had my points which meant time for Miss Stud bought in for $500, then another $500 and then another $500 before things started turning. I played about 3 hours and left down about $300 which is three hands. I consider that a win to get to play so long but wish I had a big hand. I think trips was the biggest

In the room about 12:30 and in reasonable condition

So, time for a small rant. I’m a bit pissed at CET and myself. I drug my butt out of bed to go buy something with my RCs rather than let them get taken to cover room charges. I do this every trip. Anyways I walked to Cromwell gift shop cause they got good stuff. Before walking in to the shop I checked how much I had expecting over $100. Instead I had 11 RCs. WTF? They cleared my charges by 8 am taking my RCs. Went back to the room to check room account and only thing there was the tips. That is a bit too efficient for me. Bummer

 

Sorry I missed you last night. After dinner I played in HL for quite awhile. It was real nice cause I didn’t lose

 

Well not totally drunk but definitely on adult beverages by 9. I start with coffee and water at the bar while I play, sort my money from the night before, have a breakfast bar or two. Then on to Peroni if I’m at Gustav

 

Hey I was surprised to see NOBU opened a place at Bally’s in the old Thai place I think. Anyway not my thing but my wife loves it so definitely an excuse to come back to Vegas....like I really need one

 

Ok I’m still down a good bit but I paid my marker with cash and I got a good bit of Benjimens in my pocket That is always a great feeling. Normally it’s paid with a check with lent in the pocket instead of $100’s

 

Very nice report. Really love all the food pictures!

Keep up the good work & win something big!

 

I’m in my happy place waiting on the limo to the D. Their limos are the best. Nice little bar set up but ride is too short to take full advantage. A couple years ago we got hung up in the Marathon traffic. It took a good 90 minutes to get there and we definitely took advantage
