Have a good trip. :)up Title: Re: Vegas Virgin Post by: londonpokergirl on June 25, 2007, 06:54:59 PM the $200max sit down nl game at excalibur is pne of softest games ive ever played at
but dont tell anyone ... Title: Re: Vegas Virgin Post by: bone1986 on June 25, 2007, 07:39:50 PM There are some very soft games in the MGM, especially $2/$4 or $3/$6 limit. If your playing NL then spend a bit of time watching the tables as you get some pretty useful regulars at $1/$2NL, they usually have 3 full tables going all the time.If you are going to play there a lot sign up to the players club card and you will get $1 per hour of play, not much but it will pay for a couple of buffets by the time you leave. I would also recommend the bloody Mary's and vanilla stolli and coke served in the poker room , just don't over do it if your playing NL. :cheers:
All the best and good variance for your trip. Title: Re: Vegas Virgin Post by: The_nun on June 25, 2007, 08:28:57 PM Good Luck Ben ..have a blast ..xxx
Title: Re: Vegas Virgin Post by: UpTheMariners on June 27, 2007, 05:09:46 AM i was considering flying out this friday but cant find any cheap deals any help?
Title: Re: Vegas Virgin Post by: Chili on June 27, 2007, 05:26:37 AM THe cheapest i found was BMI direct from Manchester for £380. I did book like 6 weeks in advance tho. The biggest tip is not to stick to traditional 2 or 3 weeks, mess about with the dates if you can and I got that price for 19 days. GL
Title: Re: Vegas Virgin Post by: charmaine on June 27, 2007, 09:12:10 AM Now leaving for the Airport. WOOOOOOOO. Cant wait. Been told so much about Vegas, where to go, what to do. But still not really sure what to expect! Any Peeps i know that are in Vegas now could you leave details of your whereabouts so i can do my best to catch up with you :) Chars, Ben Paul ( M3boy) is resident at binnions most days for all there events upto 4th July . Have a wonderful time Sunday :) Title: Re: Vegas Virgin Post by: Robert HM on June 29, 2007, 09:13:58 PM Ouch!!
Title: Re: Vegas Virgin Post by: tikay on June 29, 2007, 09:20:49 PM i lasted 20 hours before going broke. Hte the place with a passion. Ran the worst i ever have before in my life. Nice timing pokergods, cheers. Now have to find a way of living on $25 for the next 2 weeks. ARGHHHHHH Sadly, Vegas shatters many a dream. Everyone goes thinking it's the road to poker fulfilment, but 9 out of 10 (at LEAST) come back with less than they went with, many of them totally boracic, & with faces like seaside donkeys. I guess every poker player needs to see it for themselves, & I don't blame them for that, but the Marketing boys hyped it up treat, & did some job. Title: Re: Vegas Virgin Post by: Jon MW on June 30, 2007, 12:55:09 AM ... but 9 out of 10 (at LEAST) come back with less than they went with ... ;karabiner; .... err, I mean, nothing - I'm not saying anything ;D Title: Re: Vegas Virgin Post by: Royal Flush on June 30, 2007, 02:36:47 PM you will spend 500 in 3 days,lol. maria said the cash game at the rio is good so go and check that out. have fun. FRAN I was going to say how the hell will 500 last 3 days! Thankfully the OP made my point for me. Title: Re: Vegas Virgin Post by: LeKnave on June 30, 2007, 06:33:43 PM Ben runs bad.
Title: Re: Vegas Virgin Post by: Royal Flush on July 01, 2007, 01:55:17 PM Ben runs bad. To be fair i reckon he never even made the tables, the 500 went on strippers the first night Title: Re: Vegas Virgin Post by: Simon Galloway on July 01, 2007, 05:05:45 PM Horse already bolted, but probably the first day after a tiring flight and body clock mayhem is not the best time to put all of it into action!
Title: Re: Vegas Virgin Post by: Karabiner on July 02, 2007, 10:03:07 AM Horse already bolted, but probably the first day after a tiring flight and body clock mayhem is not the best time to put all of it into action! Agreed, a painful lesson learned there Ben, probably best to take the first couple of days off. Now you can hone your nipping skills ;) Title: Re: Vegas Virgin Post by: action man on July 06, 2007, 01:10:48 PM bump, how you getting on ben?
