So, final trip update as we got back this morning on the red-eye.

In summary,

1 - The group I played with (4 of us because Sinmeido decided to play it alone) we played in small tourneys in the Luxor (I chopped it up with the top 4 players), MGM (one of my crew chopped it with an extra $100 for him as the big stack) and lost in the Mandalay Bay and Excaliber tourney.

2 - Sinmeido won (outright) the Excaliber tourney. This was a hyper-turbo tourney....

3 - We all played in the Binions Sunday Deepstack ($125) tourney. >150 people/rebuys....Good tourney but it was challenging...Sinmeido rebought but made it the longest of the crew (around 50th spot).

4 - We spread our play in a bunch of different rooms for cash, Planet Hollywood (action room, up), MGM (tough room, down lots), Mandalay Bay (tough room, about even, maybe down), Luxor (soft room, down), Excaliber (soft room, up), Flamingo (soft room, Up), Ballys (good room, down), Golden Nugget (tough room, down) and Caesars (very tough room, even).

5 - Played lots of low limit craps and lost a bunch of money but had a blast. (played until about 5:30am one night and we were the attraction of the Luxor casino at that hour)

6 - Played some $5 blackjack and lost....

7 - Had a blast eating at the Heart Attack Grill (had a Double Bypass, barely).

8 - Saw Ka and Zumanity. Ka was good, Zumanity was better.

9 - Went to the Mob Museum at the Tropicana, was a lot of fun. Our group got whacked at the end, one of crew decided to get cute with the cop and spoke French, we are pretty sure he ratted us out.... :-)

10 - Drank a lot of Beer and booze....

Had a BLAST!! Here are a couple of pictures that you
