The El Cheapo Trip: Good Things Come in Threes?

Eh I'm back to gold at CET the end of the month (another driving force for this trip), so I'm a free agent again. Lol. But most casinos suck for compable craft beer other than TAG or 32 Degree Bar at M Resort.

Re Cromwell/Aria: yeah if I wanted more basic drinks/beers, I wouldn't mind plopping myself there for awhile. I tried to hit and run Cromwell. But when we walked through, all six units were occupied! I could have asked a watching spouse to get up, but I wasn't wanting to play it THAT badly.

 

Yeah this. He is right, you cannot be a winner playing cosmo bar tops. But you also cannot be a winner at 9/6 jacks unless you take advantage of all the promos, go at odd hours etc...

I'm not doing this for work. I'm doing it for fun.. the insult and umbrage I took with the article was calling people like me and even worse @tringlomane "Not knowlegable" [a nice way to say stupid]

If video poker or gambling became work.. id probably be a miserable old bastard too. [emoji23]

I do play the better games if I am at a casino [why I spend time downtown] but I also am not gonna play triple triple bonus even if it is .50% higher than bonus [like at my localp cause I know I don't have br to weather swings.

Lol sorry @tringlomane rant over

 

Thanks for reporting the TTB at Cosmo. 8/5 at $1-2? No reason for me to go there my next trip.

 

Enjoyed the report and I'm sure she will forgive you for missing curfew. My wife understands time gets away from me in Vegas and let's me slide all the time. One of these days our trips will coincide and I will join you for an IPA at TAG.

I can drink fun beers anytime at home. If I’m stuck drinking Sam Adams, coffee, sparkling wine, and Diet Coke with cherries...I’m Gucci.

Admittedly you and I probably are getting old enough to enjoy a long day at the M, though. And I do love that I can get sculpin at harrahs LV when I play ult Holdem.

 

I would need to go without M to possibly spend all day at M. Lol. When it comes to TAG, I'm usually spending 4 hours tops. I would need to move to weaker beers if I'm literally drinking all day.

 

Well you dont HAVE to. I've seen more than a few times security wheeling people out on wheel chairs at cosmo...

 

Another great trip report Tring! Thanks for sharing. Hopefully one of these trips our paths will cross.

 

All I know is that I am supplying you MFers with orange whips next month (you need to let me know if Joliet will let me roll a cooler in, or if I need to be discreet) and also the local VFW has passed my bankroll for the month.

I also hope M and Mrs. Wanker are ready for the TriggerMN/Geotwink experience, where we smooth everything over and keep the women happy to love their men. It’s what we do.

 

Next month? Are we in a time warp? Haha

 

It’s winter in Minnesota. Forgive me for not realizing that there are two seasons here...winter and road construction.

 

Seriously? I think the last $50 I spent on pull-tabs I didn't win anything. Good job!

 

I've never redeemed a winning pull tab.

 

Always love your reports @tringlomane! Wish I could do trips with as little sleep as you get. I'm a wuss and always end up crashing and burning early.

It isn't easy at times! I really wanted to fall asleep in the Paris diamond lounge that last evening...lol

 

Years of practice.

I can hang late like tring but my play on vp suffers I notice lots of mistake when tired

 

He seems to think everyone is beneath him. I get that overconfidence is a common trait in APs, but he seems to be the worst based on listening to his gambling with an edge podcast for the last few years. Munchkin understands casual players wanting to learn how to play games correctly and have a good time in Vegas.

I know I’m playing at a disadvantage when I’m sitting at Chandelier Bar. I also know I’m enjoying some good drinks and interesting company, which I’m not getting when I sit in a row of machines at a nondescript joint off strip. I’m sorry some people treat gambling as a form of entertainment and not a major source of income, Bob.

I would’ve made the trip over to TAG on my most recent trip based on your reports, but my wife isn’t a craft beer fan so we stuck to Cosmo.

 

I'm at the M. Tried to get a Founders stout. No can do. It's a limited time thing. Bummed. Drove down here instead of RR looking for it.

 

Bah. Sorry to hear that. I didn't think it would last terribly long. Did they have any other "limited" beers listed? You end up trying anything?
