I had a much more substantial haircut which in itself is not easy since it would take all of 3 minutes to give me a normal haircut. Beautiful day, but the 2 1/2 hour ride home instead of the usual 62 minutes was not fun except for my Wendy’s wheel brake. Guess I should say wheel break.

Short coin $5 machine quad was painful. Another trip wasted.

Satisfactory Saturday. I won $15 on my $30 Resorts BP. An executive set up a chair near the $5 VP to monitor some reader on the wall three feet away. It made me uncomfortable, so I hit the lower level dollar machines. Lost another $10. Train jitney. I got discount jitney tickets at a store. Off to Harrah’s after a long wait. Pretty quick max quad Kings. The adjacent machine was good too. Sports book lounging. Long jitney wait back to Resorts. Net Day: +$127. 52 TCs.

I did not anticipate the added activity around my machine at 11 AM and I was rattled. Next time I will squeeze in a few more hands before leaving. I break even without the merciful quad. I narrowly escaped yet another wasted trip.

Why do you let things like what's going on "around my machine" rattle you? When I play, I focus on the machine and unless someone falls into my lap, I don't see it.

👍 Same Ted. As long as it’s not a repetitive smoker that has been warned before or one that is hiding their smoke in any number of ways. Luckily, they are few and far between now.

It was just so bizarre that she would pull up a chair at this wall contraption, on a Saturday morning no less. I can at least anticipate this jarring behavior now that I’ve experienced it and I will just brush her off.
