    Yup
    We played the $150 through the same machine..cashe'd out , $100.
    Played that $100 off on UTH. lost it, but we did win back the $60 from earlier..so we're stone cold even!
    We're Uber'ing over to Rio, and we're gonna bounce between GoldCoast, Palms and Rio and try to double to $600.

    You just need one solid UTH hit to keep it rolling... It's time!

    Here was the first quad, which saved us pretty good.

    Well, walked through Rio and couldn't find Can-Can, so we came over here to GoldCoast, and my wife lost her $100 quick status in Christmas Story and a Sparking Nightlife.
    I sat down at a 25c 9/6 DDA&F machine and popped quad 6's the second hand

    Well, UTH didn't go that good.
    Played for about an hour, but lost the $100.
    So, in total, lost my $300 first day budget, which was ok. (If losing is ever OK?? lol)
    Walked back over here to Rio, and grabbed a couple slices of pizza and sodas from the Sports Deli...or so we thought!
    Casher said $15.50, so we say OK...turns out the idiot only put us down for 1 slice, and the sodas were $4.50 a pop!! JESUS! I work in SF, and that is higher than THERE!
    I told my wife, we'll keep the damn cups, and fill them up again if we want another slice of pizza! Haha
    Got a lot of plans for tommorow, so I gotta get the battery charged up..not much gambling tommorow, a lot of sight-seeing.
    Good night LAS VEGAS!!

    Good MORNING Las Vegas!
    Unfortunately my wife doesn't feel the same...she actually caught a cold right before we came here, so her head is stopped up and her voice is almost gone. I feel bad for her...
    The plan is to get cleaned up and head over to Ballys via the shuttle, then walk over to Ellis Island for breakfast.
    After that I think we're gonna meet up with Aaron5, and either go to Pinball HOF, or walk around on the strip.
    Here's a daytime shot of our strip view...

    Well fuck..I got a nice surprise...
    Kris took a shower, then told me I wouldn't like it, because the hottest it got was "warm" (I take a 105° shower)...so I go to take a shower..NOPE! The HOTTEST it gets it 60°!! I let it run a while, still no.. I check the sinks, nope, same...call down to front desk; "Ohh, no one else is reporting anything."
    GRR! Had to take the coldest, most painful shower I've ever taken..Definitely NOT the way to start a day in vegas..

    Did you get $150 because of your diamond card? I have plat at CET so was thinking it may be worth while to visit SLS just for $50 or so? Good luck bud on the trip.

    Nope.
    Just the normal sign up bonus (didn't show them any cards)
    Usually everyone wins $10 freeplay for signing up..I just happened to get lucky and get $150.

    We're on the shuttle over to Ballys right now, then gonna walk over to Ellis Island for breakfast and beer.

    Whew!!
    So, a pretty good steak & eggs for $6.99 at Ellis Island.
    After, we went to play the QQ, but the only TWO were taken. So we got a couple spots at the bar, and I had an IPA and Kris had a root beer. We played some 25c 7/5 BP on the remaining $140...which we ultimarely lost.
    Like a scene from vegas vacation, with the remaining $100, and sat down at a $1 8/5 ACE$ bonus, and here's the result.. literally LAZARUS HAND!

    So after we met up with Aaron5, Kris wasn't feeling well, so we got her some nyquil, and aaron5 drove her over to Rio to take a nap.
    I stayed over here at PHo with Aaron5 and we met up with LeslieChow, and I proceed to lose $200 on $1 7/5 BP here at Pho.
    Now we're all headed over to Casa Di Amore for dinner.
    Will update more after dinner.
    Might have to dip into tommorow stake for tonight., since we didn't get to do anything we wanted to today cuz Kris was/is sick.
