sightseeing

Perhaps BigSteve, You've been hanging around mickey too long! Neat story nonetheless. a Profit, however small, is a profit. Break even with RFB taken into account is still a profit to me so y'all did good in my book. No decent VP at Main st. Station or El Cortez? or you didn't stray those directions? Fremonts a big area when taken into account. Main st./Plaza down to the tez. Thats a lot of casinos in between. Perhaps you might consider burning some of your comp points for the upcoming G2E in Nov. I'm sure Webman would be happy to make your acquaintance. You'd find out how easygoing that vicious bear really is.

Steve  Good report.  It seemed like I was there.  No big money but great job grinding it out.

  EDC, I've been trying to get to the Tez for years .  I don't know how I've missed their classic play and food joints.  Maybe next time.  This was primarily a sightseeing tour and I had to game at odd and early morning hours or not play at all.  They're my favorite time to play anyway. We ate a lunch buffet at the Main Street Station.  The best buffet bargain downtown but we didn't game as we needed rest after overeating or to go to the strip later that evening or something. Old timers disease sets in and I can't remember nothin'.   
   Yeah, Faygo, I'm definitely a leather ass grinder.  I like it. Can't imagine playing any other way.  Now if I'd just hone my skills razor sharp so I could up the ante to $5 bucks a credit I might could make some serious dough.  Let's see $8 profit @ 25 cents a credit would be 32 credits mutiplied by $5 bucks a credit means a 4 day work week of maybe 10 hours total would pay $160.  Hmmmm, a little skimpy but I've certainly worked for less in my life.  Now only to come up with the $60,000 buy in multiplied by 4 = $240,000 for a near lock on blocking the Risk of Ruin calculation.
    I was hoping to make the G2E last fall but put it off until too late. Hopefully this year. 
            Great luck to all!

BigSteve: win or lose, as long as the ladies had a good time, I applaud your efforts. Binions and Fitzgeralds isn't too far from El Cortez. Put that on your next trip agenda. Perhaps Nov. to coincide with G2E?  Regardless, a good time is always worth the time and money. I wasn't there but it sounded like a winner to me. you didn't report on those deep fried twinkies and snickers bars though!

Thanks for the entertaining trip report Steve.
Great retort to the doorman at the Playboy club and you gotta love the hustle of that limo driver!

Way to stick it out with being the solo man on a "3 ladies and their luggage" journey!
All builds the stoke for the upcoming Sin City excursion July 27th - 30 days and counting WOO HOO!
Might just have to write a Pre-Trip report...
