    Packer Great job adding another + to the winning trip count. Maybe you will hit double digits by the end of the year. Always good to meet with friends and bring home some winning cash.

    Not sure about Nov. I have a buddy who just booked a gig at LA Comedy club Nov 11-16. So I asked my host when slot tourney is. Tourney limited to 50 players and everyone cashes. First is 30 K cash and I think rest is in FP.

    Great TR and thank you for posting the Rod pics. We didn't think we would be able to take pics, so we didn't bother with a camera. I was sick about that! It's great to look at yours! :)

    Also, pphold and I spent time with Hunter yesterday. I urge any of you who want to go to vegas to call Hunter. He is a man of his word and will make sure your trip is fun without hassle. I think As a VMB member you will get special vip treatment.

    I hope to spend some time at the Caesars tables during my upcoming trip, and we are definitely going to Bacchanal Buffet for Sunday brunch. I don't think I have set foot in there in a decade.

    I opened a credit line and Hunter was able to assign himself to me.

    Red Rock is worth the visit. Went in Feb and was awestruck. But then again I come from a relatively flat Island with a population of about 140,000. Might be I am just easily impressed. ;-)

    1500 win!

    Got to meet, party and gamble with PPHOLD, pleepleus and Stevie D..
    Red Rocks Canyon for as hike with the Sisters
    Meet up with old Friends for the Bachelor situation.
    Ride a wave at Mandalay Bay beach.
    Employees at MB High limit room are great though.
    The bar in the high limit room is great with really great selection. Really anything you want but no Blue Label. Sorry pleepleus.
    Employees at VIP check-in were very good also. Especially Bailey.
    Take sisters and a nice girl to Rod Stewart
    Dinner with Sisters at SW steakhouse.
    Show sisters the SLS. (Neither of them were impressed)
    See some other family who live in Vegas.
    Start out a loser gambling but ended up even for the trip! That's a win!

    Lowlights
    Mandalay Bay is avg at best.
    Check in debacle was a joke!
    Too much smoke
    Room service there is terrible
    Craps there is no good. rate you lower than Aria or MGM.
    I think the place is dirty and run down. Don't get me wrong it is a step up from Ballys..

    Will never stay at MB again!

    Sorry if I offended any of you but that's one mans opinion. And 3 Sisters.

    All in all very fun again in Vegas. I am blessed. And again I want to thank PPHOLD and pleepleus for a great time. Stevie D too!

    Peace!

    I am a city-wide host, I am just based out of PH. Only about a third of my customers stay at PH regularly, the rest at Caesars, Cromwell, Bally's, Paris. I also send a lot to Tahoe and New Orleans.

    Great TR report, as always.

    I agree with the ratings sucking.

    MB is run down. Delano is a step up or two (only baby steps).

    After reading your report and from my own experience (last month), I think that I will try to change my home base.

    Good luck on your next visit!!!
