However if you look at the picture of Excalibur which is 20 storeys he looks like he is much higher than 20 storeys. The picture had to be taken from a helicopter because Paris on the background looks short compared to the vantage point of the picture.Comment -

#52Yeah, 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 thoughComment -

#58I 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!Comment -

#61Ah, 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.
