    lol....guys, I'm really not a cheapass........but I figure that if I potentially lose 2k sitting in the books over a few day period, at least I want to know that I'm drinking on them. If that makes me a cheapass.......then sh!t, I'm a cheapass, LOL

    fuuck man this is easy, first off u should get a drink ticket or two for a $300 bet. However, what you should do is belly up to the bar near the book, put $100 in in one of those video poker machines, hit the max play spin button every few minutes.....bang drinking free pretty much whatever u want

    Rule#1 Baccarat table game (not video )
    Rule#2 Black action
    Rule #3 Play like couple of shoe ( appox. 2 hrs cuz everybody like to squeeze those cards but you have to be the highest wager no matter on bank or player )
    Rule #4 ask for comp. when you leave the table.
    they will approve usually when you are up..Gourmet usually... but when you are down will get coffee or noodle shop..
    Finally don't let them round off your winnings with purple or rectangle chips...let them guess...I guess the pit boss will have a ballpark figure at your winnings or losings most of the time. You can ask for room at off peak seasons... I mean sometimes..

    Last but not least TIME you play on the table is the essence NOT volume but still BLACK ACTION minimum...

    Well your hypothetical question then, you know what I mean.

    And for your information, when I was in High School....yes, many of us kept our McDonald's cups in our lockers for that very reason!

    Not bad math........wagers will be in the $100 to $300 range. I don't anticipate betting outside of this range.

    if you strike up a good rapport with someone placing your bets, slip them a $20 and ask for some extra drink tickets, he/she will shoot you a couple extra (usually 5-7 in my exp.). just be friendly, shoot the shi* quickly (mock the drunks and loud assholes, they do that, shows you understand what they deal with), and know what you're doing. it will usually help. close mouths don't get fed. if you can read people in the slightest, you'll know who will go for it.

    Been goin to Green Valley Ranch last 5 years for opening week NCAA Mens Baskets Tourney

    Last year the 3 of us totaled 23G worth of action over the 4 day period (Thurs thru Sun) We got 23 Bucks thanks very much...covered a breakfast buffet lol We wacked up about 10G last year so happy plane ride.

    play some horses ...20 show keep ticket for cocktail waitress you'll be rated??? a Race guy and not pay for drinks oh and make sure you tip the tomato or you'll die of thirst, most of those girls will hustle for ya but you gotta come accross
    Also when the shift changes, have the girl tell the new girl about your party and your golden for the duration, She will tell her that you are good guys. We usually stay in the book for 12 -16 hours

    I usually drink Jamesons and you need like 4 yellow tickets for that so I would ask to see Sportsbook manager and get some blue tickets from him.....still have a few dozen left over.

    When you play on Sports ask the ticket writer for some drink tickets, try to go to the same guy, and if you cash tickets, throw em a bone on Thursday, they WILL remember you and give you 2/3 tickets each time. You'll get the same 2 tickets whether you're bettin dimes or hundys Have fun and good luck

    The LaGasse Stadium next door to Wynn looks pretty solid. Does anyone have any experiences there?

    I'm just looking for a good place to hang, that offers me free drinks.
    I don't want to be aimlessly wondering around the strip, and end up in a crap hole.

    Doesn't seem like I'm making too complicated, does it?

    Thanks Sam........I have a decent roll going with me, that I'm 100% willing to lose, so at least it won't be scared money.

    With that said, hoping to come back with a nice stack.

    2 last minute questions.

    1) Ill end up getting to Westgate around 9:15 Vegas time. Will this give me enough time to get my plays in? Ive read lines can be long on Sunday mornings?

    2) for drinks, do I need to break my tickets up to get more or no? Ill be there with 2 others, and were making the same plays. Should I get 3 individual tickets for $200 each, or just all together?

    Thanks in advance!

    It's all about the drinks pal.

    Reger, just tell them that the tickets are losers after you pay for them. Jokingly and ask if you can have some drinks. They'll get a chuckle and throw ya a few more.

    Not sure what you like to drink....but I'm sure there is a CVS or Walgreens near where you are. They have better beer selections than the casino or you can buy liquor of your choice. That way you aren't constantly worrying about finding the waitress or getting watered down drinks.

    If your gambling $2000, then spend $20 (beer) or $40 (liquor) on what you want. You're there for a good time....don't be a cheap ass.
