Beau Rivage Junket Live 2/28-3/4

@tringlomane I was quite happy to find that non-shitty STP BP, it treated it me well and was the winner for the trip!

 

Yes, this.... I just recently reintroduced shrimp into my diet, and when I am at good places...I get it... And down here.... it's like getting Mexican food in California.....bad shrimp here kicks the ever-living shit out of good shrimp almost anywhere else.

 

So, after that profitable single line STP BP session, in for $180 out for $420 (in deference to @NPLV ) I'm calling it a wrap... I fly out 1ish tomorrow, bus leaves at 11... Will give me time to hit the gym, possibly Casa de Waffle.... I forsee throw-up gravy on my taters tomorrow! @Ty eat your heart out!

Stats for the trip....

Came with 3K, have 4.1K now... plus about 300 in tips and pocket expenses... that's a $1400 positive gambling endeavor....which covers the last three Nevada trips and then some... (only a one night screw-up for 3k at Bally's AC is messing with my year right now) Overall... that's pretty damn good.

Food was OOP at casa de Waffle, comped at Harrah's and IP. And my room charges are about 300 for dinner at stalla, and Spa... I only earned like $20 bucks in express comps.... I'll probably apply them to my charges and pay for the rest.... I know better than to ask a host to dig into them at all... I definitely underplayed the comp, so I'll save the host telling me no, lol.

My countdown timer tells me I have about 11 sleeps till I do this all over again, next time will be from the Luxor in a Pyramid suite (likely the tower as pyramid has been closed) and a 2 night jaunt to Laughlin... As always it's been fun, and I enjoyed sharing it with you... or as I should say here.... y'all.

Peace!!!!!!

 

I do confess that I tried some triple double, and tried to channel @Flowers and @Gaggles type of luck.... but it was good old Bonus (with STP) that came through.... Maybe one day I'll get a taste for it.

 

I'd give it a five (this is fun y'all)

 

Now there is a sunrise...

 

Another fantastic trip. You're having a brilliant gambling year. Congrats on the wins and safe travels.

 

Great picture!!!!

 

I don't have the courage that @Flowers possesses to play Ult X Triple Double. In fact on Ult X, I usually play BP vs DDBP to survive the volatility. But...when you do get those premium hands on BP instead of DD or TD it sucks rocks.

 

Already ordered the canvas print $30 bucks, google please take my money.

 

Yeah, I guess I just like my bonus poker... I'll sacrifice huge wins for the ability to selectively eek out profit.... yeah I would have gotten at least $2k for the aces, but I was also half through the session bankroll, and who knows if I would have survived to see it.

 

Mini rant---- why do the smaller airport TSA agents feel like they have something to prove.... I have been travelling with the same cigar lighter for years.... I have specifically been told by a TSA agent who inspected it at LAS that it was okay.... more than once.... Here... I have to forfeit it... and they don't have a damn post office here of course... Crap. I'm sure the guy is just doing his job.... but I find it difficult to believe that I have been at big airports, have had it inspected multiple times..... ugh.. I liked that lighter. Shit.

Then to cap it off, they make a announcement that a customer should return to the checkpoint to claim their bag of fritos..... Anyone who ever has been camping and started a fire know the fire-starting power of fritos.... Take them, and a match or bic lighter (perfectlly allowed) And that we would be in for a shit-show....

Bless his heart.

 

Confiscations of some items is nuts. How did they find the lighter?

 

Sometimes it's like gambling, smallest airport I've been to, maybe they have more time to review things. One time I had a paperweight that was almost seized due to being a blunt object as it was stone, supervisor oked it fortunately.
Was it a torch type?

At least you won and can buy a new lighter!

 

X-ray, not like I has hiding it

 

Anyone here have an email for a host at Harrahs Gulf Coast? Seems mine has gone missing. Please post here or PM, thanks

Good report. Curious if you noticed what the BJ table minimums at the Beau? Really enjoyed visiting there last year but tables never went under $15 a hand.

 

15 was the lowest I saw
