Monster Comeback at Mandalay Bay

That spa is baller status...fill it with champagne, and have some bubbly too, haha.

 

Not to side track too much, but has anyone ever done this? It seems like it might irritate some sensitive areas.

 

Congrats at the excellent comeback

 

Best spa tub I've had was at. The Trop. Sky Villa. This had so many control there was a LCD touch pad screen to control the jets










U.K.Fanatic. Thanks for the Cubs pick. I took them

I'm thinking a lot of people bet the Cubs to win the World Series this year because of Back to the Future II


It took like an hour to fill it with water.

I don't know how much champagne it would take but. Would be a lot to fill that.

LC you need to try to fill a spa tub with champagne

 

Now that's a spa tub!!!!

My aching body could use that while in Vegas.

Just to be different....LETS GO, BLUE JAYS!!!!

 

Damn...that looks like it came from NASA!

 

Always nice to hear of someone being ahead for a change. Congratulations! Hope the winning trend continues!

 

Eaten there twice now and enjoyed it both times

 

The tub here takes forever to fill also. The trick I use is pour a bottle of body wash into it. Doesn't make it fill faster, but all the bubbles make it seem that way

 

Yes Sir! Way to go UK! Congrats on the year end comeback, and love the chip porn, and no matter how many times you report even the same stuff, we eat it up, never stop, these reports are our lifeline during the drudge of the week! Thanks agains and congrats!

PPhold that jet tub looks like something out of the matrix

 

Sitting at the airport now, waiting to go home. And since I have a few minutes to kill, I will add one story from last night.

After eating at Lago, I walked back to Mandalay Bay. Decided to stop and play a little at Aria. I walk up to the double deck table in the high limit and take out a marker. There is already one older gentlemen sitting at the table, betting multiple hands of multiple yellow chips. And he was perhaps the worst blackjack player in history! Had I Known before I sat down, I would have skipped the table entirely.

He made some of the worst plays I have ever seen. He never hit on soft seventeen, no matter what the dealer had. He never hit on 16 or 15. OK, I see that often, not a huge deal. But he also never hit on 14 or 13!!! What???? Add in that he would do random things like hit on a hard 17 every now and then. I was just stunned.

And of course it was killing me. His mistakes kept allowing the dealer to make his hand and beat us. Dude was taking out 20k markers every five minutes, playing a random number of hands for random amounts. By the third shoe I am down 14k, but thankfully the other guy wanted to start playing my spot only and add his wager to my bet. Dealer asked me if that was ok and I said no problem. Anything to get him to stop his random play. As soon as he started capping my bets, I won a few in a row. Then he went back to his random play and we gave back those winnings. Sigh.

Finally, he left the table and I mounted a comeback (actually colored up a few thousand in the black). I have seen bad players. I have seen odd and superstitiuous players. But I have never seen a player like this.

 

That sucks to hear. It's amazing how many terrible players there are with more money than God. I remember asking a player next to me years ago at Venetian that was playing 5k a hand why he was splitting faces against a dealer 10. He said it was his money and he could do what he wants. He ended up splitting 3 times and lost all of the hands since the dealer had a 20. I've also played with a player that stayed on a 5...not a soft 15, but a 2+3.

 

Hi UK, man I just don't like MB. The room is sooo outdated. YUK! The casino too. I do like the high limit area though. But who cares about the room you won! Very nice win. Glad you are now officially up for the year. Love the chip porn profit. Were you able to use that sex tub? LOL. NEVER think your TR's are repetitive. We all love them and each time we are living through your exploits. Thanks again UK! Oh, TY for that Cubs pick! Can you post your theo, avg bla bla bla when you find out? Always interesting.

 

You really want to be different? Let's go Mets!!! Hey, you never know. Our pitching staff is top notch.

 

Love to see the win, congrats!

 

That's why I never say anything to someone about their play (unless they ask). You never know how they will react. Although I'm sure I rolled my eyes multiple times last evening at that Aria table

 

lol, I used the sex tub, but unfortunately I was solo. I did not ask for my stats. I earned 100k TC, which really isn't much considering how much I walked away with. I would estimate that I only gambled for about five hours total over the two days and my average bet was probably a little shy of $1000.

I realized on the flight home, this was probably my last stay at Mandalay Bay. That's not a knock on the property. I still like it and some aspects are outstanding (pool and book come to mind). But I realized that its probably only my sixth favorite Strip hotel. There are just other places I would rather stay. The only thing I feel like MB has that the other hotels I stay at do not is the remarkable view from the suite. And I only enjoyed the view for maybe ten minutes, lol

 

Congrats on the win UK, I am only the lowest of low rollers but there's nothing worse than watching people make crazy moves

 

Hi, UK! Thanks for the TR. A great read with sweet pics! Congrats on the upswing!

Well done UK, congrats on the win. It always amazes me when people with a large income, who you would think would be smart, disciplined, and knowledgeable, plays like a 21 year old that has never played the game before.
