    Boys still in Vegas and learning from the +EV lifestyle guru Fishhead!

    This morning I was heading back to my room at the Rio after an all-night session grinding when the people down the hall from me were putting out a pizza box from room service. I pretended to be digging for my room key until I heard their door click and sprinted back to check out what might have been discarded and lo and behold three untarnished slices of pizza were still in the box!

    30 seconds of my time and I scored on a freeroll for my late breakfast!

    with the naked eye i'm pretty sure it would be impossible to make sure they were untarnished

    not +ev, free garbage is still garbage


    if you want free/cheap breakfast there's plenty of better ways to get it. $4.99 all you can eat at stations (gvr, red rock, etc)

    Not sure understand all the negative comments The food was still good (obviously checked it out before I ate it) and hadn't been touched... (Well I think it was supreme and it appeared to be missing the mushrooms those might have been picked off )...

    I was going to take a picture of my score before consumption but I was hungry at the time and my stomach won out...

    Around $4.99 (unless I get comped) is usually my upper limit when I eating by myself and traveling (I did splurge and get the $7.99 steak dinner at Ellis Island the other day but an obvious steal)... But if people are going to discard perfectly good food (and I don't have get dirty in a dumpster retrieving it) why put out the money?

    It's because you're in Vegas bro.

    Instead of scrounging for other people's throw out pizza you should be poppin bottles, banging crazy hot chicks, and taking the casinos money.

    When I was younger and used to work at a restaurant. If a broad ordered a filet mignon and only ate a couple bites, we would just cut the part she ate and finish it.

    LV, you strike me as the kind of guy who would be the absolute last one to reach for his wallet when out with friends. You're the guy who disappears to the bathroom when the check comes.

    Unreal.

    Anyone can afford a fukking dollar menu from McD's before raiding room services carts. Garbage is garbage.. stick to online poker if you can't afford a $5 meal.

    Anyone who has hung out with me knows this isn't true (although I still owe a meal to both Bobby (whom I tried to cash in several times since he picked up a meal with me but our schedules haven't lined up) and my mentor Fishhead who graciously picked up the check for several of us at the buffet at the Nugget)...

    I personally make a very concerted effort not even give the impression that I'm mooching off others (for example multiply times I've turned down rides since I been here and instead take rather long bus rides unless I was heading the same place as those offering)...

    Sorry, but again, I just don't see the point of dropping much on food (or any at all if at all possible...) when I'm eating by myself most meals...

    LV Hervie treated me and Bobby to a nice dinner at a Vegas Restaurant

    He had coupons that discounted it but only b/c he is sharp and never pays full price for anything

    There is a reason why after only a couple days some are out of the game looking for loans while I'm closing in on a month in Vegas and (despite running like shit) am only down a very small amount (an amount that those trying to live the idealized Vegas lifestyle probably have no problem easily running through in a day)...

    The casinos money isn't always easy to get and popping bottles and banging hot chicks while trying to get it isn't going to be sustainable for 99%...

    awesome

    classic

    + fukin EV

    there is nothing cooler than living a +EV lifestyle in Vegas, either low end or high end, doesn't matter

    whether you are dumpster diving and getting free pizzas from wasted tourists and $1.99 buffets or doing it mathy/monkey style and pounding bricks on off lines with beards

    + fukin EV, choosing to be on the other side of sucker

    Carpe check back with me in year as I'm working on getting that mathy/monkey type of roll together where I can join them with needing beards to push bricks through...

    If it happens the blow/broads are on me at the next bash but if not I'll happily scrounge you up some free pizza while we kill some time in the 1/2 Nugget game again next year...
