          That pic was taken at the M&M store next to MGM. It's just a background pic that you stand in front of.

                    Primm isn't bad but its far from the same...hopefully he just stopped there to get the bet in right before kickoff.

                      Bet was made 7 min before kick off on the Miami Game.

                      I can see Dave going 100 mph in his car at quarter til with one thing and one thing only on his mind!

                            Neither did I say was real. I was responding to BTJ's observation.

                                    Yeah, if he went to vegas and didn't make a bet on a game, I would really hate him then.

                                    Glad he went, glad he had fun, could have spent that 400.00 on an escort though

                                      Dave you're here just in time for AVN. Go down to Mandalay and check out some porn stars the next couple of nights. The awards are on Saturday.

                                        That's taken from the Foundation Room at Mandalay Bay actually.

                                          Dave is such a sick gambler, he sat out for Vegas but only made at as far as the first casino in Primm.

                                                I have returned! Sadly with only $100 in my pocket.

                                                Should have stuck with sports! As GM posted the picture I texted him, I hit a $10 to win $113 4 team parlay on Sunday. Those of you that think I stayed in Primm are crazy... why in the hell would you drive 4 hours to Vegas to stay in Primm? Especially now when they are giving away room deals left and right.. Monte Carlo only cost $50 a night. As GM pointed out, the bet was placed 7 minutes before game time; I barely made it to Primm on time, there was no way in hell I would have made it to the strip in time to place that bet.

                                                Other sports bets I made:
                                                20 to win 52 Ohio State +8/Under 51 parlay (Winner)
                                                20 to win 52 Ohio State ML (Loser)
                                                22 to win 20 Tulsa -2.5 (Winner)
                                                20 to win 27 LA Kings ML (For fun, Loser)

                                                So sports-wise, I ended up +145... but that was all I hit in Vegas.

                                                I was ICE COLD the entire trip, and you can't afford to be ice cold with such a shitty bankroll. Pai Gow, Blackjack, Craps, Three Card Poker, Roulette, Slots, didn't matter what the hell I touched, I lost everything I put down on the table in seconds. Mandalay Bay, Luxor, MGM Grand, didn't matter where we went either.

                                                Math-wizzes/smart asses, please spare me the "It was -EV bets of course you lost". I'm well aware of house edge. And if I had my way, I'd have spent the whole trip in the sports book and the poker room. But with the girlfriend for 3 nights you drink the free beer and you play some goofy games and hope to get lucky. Just wasn't my weekend.

                                                By night two I was completely broke, the $390 I had left (after buying the ticket in Primm) was gone. I asked my GF for a $120 loan and promised to pay her back when we picked up my money in Primm. Lost that $80 instantly, put $20 on the Kings and Tulsa... Tulsa won, got my $40, lost it. "Burried" as they say around here.

                                                It wasn't until I got back to Primm that I won again. Got the $123 and went to give it to the GF and she felt so bad for her degenerate boyfriend that she let me keep $43 to play with in Primm.

                                                I then hit this bad boy:



                                                $60, wooo! Brings me to $85... sit down at a blackjack table, get it to $100, and get the hell out of there.

                                                Whats sad? When you do the math, I profited $170 in Primm, and lost $470 in Vegas.

                                                Maybe I should have stayed in Primm

                                                Glad to be back guys!

                                                  I love Primm, I get a suite and all comps for food Beer, sky is the limit when i roll in Gary always hooks me up. They have a decent sportsbook over there.

And if I had my way, I'd have spent the whole trip in the sports book and the poker room. But with the girlfriend for 3 nights you drink the free beer and you play some goofy games and hope to get lucky. Just wasn't my weekend.
                                                    I dont think anyone will say anything. The point of going to Vegas is playing the tables. Glad you had fun, and walked out with some money still in pocket!

                                                      Ah, other things in this thread:

                                                      1) The picture is indeed fake... thought it was obvious. I was amused by your guesses though. Its just photoshop. The hairy chested picture is from my birthday party a few years ago... just pasted it onto a Vegas backdrop.

                                                      The Original:


                                                      2) I knew that once I posted a picture of my ticket from Primm there would be controversy that I didn't actually stay at the Monte Carlo, so I took this picture of the hotel room phone with my key card. I hope this suffices.

                                                              Love that hotel... make sure you eat at the Grand Lux, good stuff. Sportsbook has plenty of TVs, watched the Ohio State/Texas game there.

                                                              Hopefully you have better luck then I did!
