Wow! $1023 on a .30 cent bet!

Congrats on the quarter royal. Go get that HP.

I really appreciate all the work that goes into posting a trip report with so many pics. Now that PB is charging for 3rd party hosting, what hosting site are you using?

It's getting to be time to start planning my next trip to Vegas.

The last two trips I have used imgur. But I learned that I needed to resize the photos to post them there. VMB auto-resized for me. Doh! And yes, she now has a bigger hit than I do! Lol. That was really unbelievable!

I had to smile when the first place you went after check in was Ellis Island. It is a favorite for me as well. The steak special and the BBQ ribs are terrific deals.The place has that local feel and the VP is good.

Congrats on that royal and a perfect way to start your stay. It set you up for winning trip.



Lol about immediately going there. It was one of the few spots where it seemed we could fit it in!   But yes, we love Ellis Island. The food and VP value is tough to beat!

And yes, hitting those hands on Day 1 was a new experience to me in Vegas. I knew I was going home a winner! That was a great feeling. On a majority of my trips, Day 1 is one of my worst days! :(

Now THAT'S a report! It must have taken a lot of effort to put it together.

Congrats on the entire trip, and, in particular, on that first 25c royal. You will probably never forget it.

Thanks! Yeah, it takes awhile, but when I get it all written up, it's a nice thing to look back at. :) This will definitely be one of my most memorable Vegas trips. Hopefully my first handpay will be a future one!

Well crafted beer and Well crafted report!

I generally feel an elevated quality of life in Vegas, but you guys really live it up there as usual.

I am happy for you guys had the best gaming outcomes on respective visits to Vegas and Tunica. It probably made writing this trip report so much easier.

So jealous that you guys got to eat some great food. Finally made it to Bacchanal as well, good job on abusing the Diamond tier benefit! It's a place that is worth trying at least once.

Thumbs up on the 777 beers achievement! To be able to try that much assortment is impressive no matter what others think, perhaps that brought the luck?

Great hits, Great memories! I'll read this report again to remind me how much fun it is out there in Vegas!
