    Great report RF, thanks for such an entertaining read and well done on getting through the trip with the limited bankroll. Just a thought how did you enjoy it in comparison to a normal trip where you have a bigger bankroll ?

    I enjoyed it a lot more than last trip because I had a car and was able to go all over the place, and because I got to hang out with tons of great people. I didn't enjoy the gambling as much as when I have a big bankroll because I couldn't play as much as I wanted.

    I enjoyed not losing $500 a day. :)

    Great trip report, as always. Sad to see (or not see) a countdown timer in your posts.

    Nice report, Flusher.

    My savvy plan to wait for the finish and then binge read went perfectly.

    But seriously ... who does a grinding low rolling trip that includes underplaying MILF and doesn't burn through some of their life on MyVegas? Seriously, you could have gotten a weeknight room, 50 bucks free play, and a buffet, and it only would have cost you about 40 hours and a fake facebook account.

    That's a respectable $1.25 an hour!

    The room has value too. ;) Game was much more valuable in 2013 though. I've probably redeemed about $2k retail in free stuff without spending a dime on the game.

    On the outside chance we go back to Vegas next month, I really should motivate myself to grind blackjack on the game again. Ugh.

    Nice report! If we do go back, I can only hope I find another pick 'em quad like you did! Miss playing that game as most casinos nationwide have shit 20 coins for trips paytables. :(

    Sucks you couldn't find the royal this time, but a decent result sans "Royals Flush". Got lucky number 7 in Tunica this weekend myself! On a game where Ultimate X meets "Animal Farm"...called "Barnyard Poker". lol

    Hope you can get back there soon and take some of their money next time!

    I could have trimmed costs by $12 by not buying the Tommy Wind Groupon and forgetting to use it... I wonder if its still good? The Quad Queen might enjoy that show while I gamble.
