Back from Vegas after being bumped from my Sunday night flight. Note to Continental...suck it bio-tches. Good time was had by all and am glad to report there were no arrests. As some of you that have gambled with me know Im pretty aggressive at the tables (blackjack and craps are my game) Im sad to report to those that may care that after two days of hardcore gambling I was getting my ass handed to me rather badly. So on the third day I decided to take it easy and just lollygag around town to kill some time. As chance would have it I ended up at the New York New York casino at an Irish pub to throw back a few pints (go figure fly thousands of miles to drink in a pub in NY NY) Anyways so Im standing around waiting for a few friends so I decided to throw a few bucks in a slot machine (which I never play) to pass the time.
BAM
Fours sevens jackpot!!! Are you frickin kidding me. Im jumping up and down like a pensioner on The Price Is Right looking for a makeout from Barker. I call the attendant over to collect my winnings.
BAM
Im informed because I only bet a dollar and didnt bet max I won nothing nada thanks for playing. Try again. No thanks. I make my way to Nine Fine Irishmens Pub to drown my sorrow, but as Im about to order I get a gut feeling to head back to that machine. Long story short i didnt hit another jackpot but did hit quite a few smaller ones that put me just about even for the trip.
I guess what Im trying to say is that stepping outside your comfort zone sometimes yields positive results and that Continental Airlines sucks arse.
on a side note the infamous Vegas Gentlemans Club has now officially changed its name to the Spearmint Donkey
EE-Aw!!

I don't gamble, I think its a gateway sin to far worse and I am not into hell and damnation. Just giving my props to JC.
Don't bash Bob Barker. He's a sexy dude. I'd make out with him any day. Him ... or Russell Crowe. No difference.
good job donkey. I remember when i first started going to casino's with like 50 bucks for 2 days, i would play that stupid video poker and crap like that for like 50 cents or whatever per hand. I never won anything there. I thought blackjack was the greatest game in the world until i learned craps! now i don't do anything but craps. Except when i was in Barcelona and they only had blackjack, what a dissappointment!
Gambling is a sin tax on people with poor math and probability skills. I'm pretty sure the bible says Thou Shalt Not Play Craps.
Oh man, i might get smited for this one, but i'm not giving up the dice, it's too much fun.
Morals are for suckers!!!
Rhino, myself and two other friends broke the house at the Ritz in Puerto Rico playing craps. That was the first and only time Ive been involved on a winning table that the house shut down. They were right to fear us. As I recall we cracked them for about 20K collectively. But that was the PR...Vegas wouldve sneezed at that amount and just kept feeding us mickey'd drinks
wow, glenda your mom must have been hot!
Anyway, i was on such a roll in PR, i had the dice for about 45 minutes without crapping out. Never saw anyone on a roll like that before, and haven't since. the tables were supposed to close at 4 am, but they closed 15 minutes early because we were jacking them up!
Good times good times
OH glenda, you should read Bringing Down the House. It's about these MIT guys (and girls) who were beating the house counting cards on black jack. True story, and it's very interesting.
I was counting cards all weekend long. Only problem was they kept adding up to 22.
you know lily we would bring our friends over to you except for the fact that YOU are our friends :(
you already got donsky, and in fact i think he's sweet on you, or vice versa.
wait a minute, i think i'm jealous!
oh no, it's ok, it was just gas
