No lame ass resort fees at 'the cal' either baby. Always a plus.
Boyd added resort fees at their downtown casinos last month. Actually (in this case) it as advantage to me as I get comped rooms and no longer have decide between paying for internet or being deprived of my forumville addiction for a couple nights.

Damn shame I didn’t see this edict yesterday. I was staying at the Fremont yesterday but had a shitload of stuff to do as I was leaving for Reno today. Still totally would have made time to meet up with the snake if I had known that Coach wanted him basket shopped.

I live in the boonies of Western Massachusetts. Currently I live in the small town of Gill. For you Bostonians, just follow Route 2 all the way until you see trees and fields.

Well JJ, I pay for my rooms. I'm not some bullshit credit moocher, like your Foxwoods visit. The Cal was awesome, nice room, great service, and a 6 buck breakfast buffet with a whole trough full of bacon.

They got "resort" fees now, like 16 bucks a day. Hell, even the Downtowner charges you 6 bucks for resort fees now, and all they have is a busted ice machine and a pool the size of a bathtub.

That was 2 years ago pal. And whatever, like a dude shouldn't become pro when on a run in BTP. By the way, I ain't ever seen you on that BTP leader board. Jealous much?

I used to like Cal more. After the construction, they pulled out the Sportsbook and the famous Aruze Big Fish machine, lol. I still walk over sometimes to go to the fantastic Ice Cream shop.
The Sportsbook is back, on the first floor now.

"Basket Shopped"? I don't know what that means Herbie.

I guess it hasn’t made it up as far north to your area but common slang in the Jersey bath houses that JJ frequents.
basket shopping: Slang; gathering an idea of how large a man's penis is by looking at his "package" underneath his pants.
Snake are you at California the reminder of your trip? I’m debating heading back late Sunday to maybe take a couple shots in WSOP Colossus event Monday. Might be able to squeeze in a trip to the Cal for their world famous oxtail soup to get the report filed for Coach.

I used to run upstate NY and MA, started in middletown, NY up route 9 and the toll way to Saratoga and Glens falls
then over the mountain RT20 to Lanesborough , Holyoke and springfield.
Beautiful country up there.

I'm hopping around now Herbie. WSOP is here Sunday and Monday? That explains why the rates at The Cal are triple what they should be. Sunday morning now and I'm waking up at the lovely (sarcasm) Super 8 at 1213 South Las Vegas Boulevard. Grabbed that because all the hotels and casinos had crazy room rates for last night. You're a poker dude? I'm mostly all about the sports and a little blackjack. Don't have any room reserved for tonight yet. Gonna go hit the ATM and maybe try to put a wager down on baseball. Then I'll be back at Super 8 to shower and figure out where I'm staying tonight. If you want to split a room (yeah, yeah, I know), that would be cool. But I guess you get comped rooms, so that doesn't matter much to you. I'll check my messages around noon and I'll probably head back downtown or to the Westgate later to bet. If you are around, give me a holler and I'll get back to you. Laters, Snake.

Snake, remember when we were scouting out that Caps line. I cross-checked some #s, then went back and played it. Nice ticket, nice winner.
Where's the fuckin power box, Carol?

You're good luck Chucky. I took the last 35 bucks I had, bought a new Vegas T shirt, and played 2 parlays with the rest. My "safe" parlay was Caps straight up and the Tigers on the RL +1.5. $20 won me $58 on that one. Then I did a 5 team "risky" parlay with Caps -1.5, Tigers straight up, the Padres and the over in the Padres/Braves game, as well as the Angels RL -1.5. Thought the Angels were gonna cost me for getting greedy, but they scored 3 in the bottom of the 8th and I converted that parlay too. $10.75 bet won me like $760. So now, instead of 30 bucks, I got like $800 and a new T shirt. lol After I cashed that ticket, I even decided to try the Oxtail Soup at the Cal, which people do indeed line up for. Great day for me. Thanks for lunch and good luck the rest of your Vegas romp.

Wow, nice score. That's getting a great return on your $$. I thought the Caps line was short.
Later. Safe travels.

I did the airbnb thing my whole stay in Guadeloupe 2 winters ago. Worked great there, but didn't see anything reasonable in Vegas the days I need it.
