    fuckin A...money grows on trees for me baby, and proud to be me.
    As for having better trips...nah, I won't, forever I will lose inside casinos...and I'm ok with that...
    its what makes me happy...if I won, id be scared as shit to see what would happen to me OUTSIDE the casino.

    As an update...we came back to Sams Town, and played $100 on dice, which lasted until now...Kris said she was hungry, so while in line at the Sports Deli, I was drunk and ranting about how my host took a vacation this week and screwed me on the silver card...well, the guy in front of us, was apparently one of my hosts other players, with a GOLD CARD, so he told us to order whatever we wanted, cuz it was FREE...man, talk about right place, right time...he told me to stick with my host and he'd get me taken care of (ended up putting in $10k here, and Kris got $5k at MSS)

    Thanks for the report.

    On some trips to Vegas the only "Jackpot feeling" a person gets is when the ATM spits out money instead of flashing a declined message. Better luck on your next trip.

    Thank God my bank does not allow this. I know some banks, like US Bank will allow you to overdraw as long as you have a direct monthly deposit going into your bank account. I had US Bank for about a year and said fuck them, it was too much temptation for me, and their fees were outrageous anyways.. Now I have a credit union, no fees, and no negative balances.

    It's been a very enjoyable read to date. Now win some money before hitting the road. One quarter royal would take away lots of pain.

    My final second big win, is I have a dream life to go back home to.
    Ohh, and I had a "slot manager" cuz there was no host around...he asked how much hotel charges I had, and I said $6 (only one meal) and he seemed annoyed by it, and he said "Well, if you're sure it's only $6, I'll go ahead and comp it."
    Like if it had been any more he wouldn't have...

    how how do you think I ended up down an ADDITIONAL $500? LOL, I threw all the hail Mary's I could...
    I'm sticking to the "coin-in" plan from now on, going for Emerald smooth and steady (which SHOULD be a +$500 a year EV situation; after running all the numbers)
