Title: Vegas pictures Post by: Kev B on September 03, 2008, 01:03:43 PM I posted some pics for Red on his diary thread and it was suggested by Robert HM to start a thread to post more pics of the fabulouse Las Vegas. I for one never get tired of looking at pictures of the place so if you have any to share get em posted.
To start you off.

Arrive in style, stay in style, the whole 9 yards. When we walked in, my daughter (who has always stayed in a villa, never a hotel room) says "corrr, its small innit!" Crushing. Although not small, it was very dated and wouldn't fork out for one of these again.

Title: Re: Vegas pictures Post by: Simon Galloway on September 03, 2008, 02:45:31 PM Very classy rooms there Simon, great pics. Cheers, I got the rooms as a bit of insurance really.. to allow me to sneak out to play the graveyard shift and in case her body clock was all over the place, we could pop next door, watch tv etc. In fact, the first night she was wide awake at 2am, the Bellagio mini bar is an expensive way to entertain yourself! The rest of the time, it was a good way to take a youngster imo. Do family stuff all day, go to bed at her bedtime, I slide out at 2am to play the graveyard cash games and wait for the call to say "bring breakfast up" That said, the rooms look all of teh 10 years old that they probably are. everywhere else, plasmas etc are standard, and the fixtures were starting to show a little too much wear and tear. It was a good trip though.

Ariston you don't have to re size them if you use use photobucket. Just download your photo onto the site then click on the bottom line which says img code (see pic below). This will copy the photo then just paste it into your post. (http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee61/Bloot58/ssxx.jpg) Good luck.

Well, unsurpisingly I don't remember the incident I believe I nearly got apprehended by security in The Rio and then whilst walking across the Gold Coast's car park, to get to the Gold Coast, where we were staying, a partol car showed up and they asked my soberish mate if there was a problem! Title: Re: Vegas pictures Post by: WarBwastard on September 03, 2008, 05:46:44 PM I had to take a picture of these two dungerees'd up rednecks. I'm not sure they realised there was a roof over Fremont Street..I think they thought maybe it was a sign from God or something.
(http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t189/Doyourow/Rednecks.jpg) I also saw a real life Rainman at the Gold Coast..this guy was chuntering away to himself just like Dustin Hoffman playing this poker machine at 200mph. Touch typing video poker. waaargh that's a straight, that's a stright, gimme a flush, I need a flush that's a flush...two pair two pair (http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t189/Doyourow/RainMan.jpg) Title: Re: Vegas pictures Post by: Robert HM on September 03, 2008, 09:13:34 PM Kev, thanks for posting pics, and all the others posted and to post, the same.

But you will no doubt see quite a bit of him when espn show the coverage as they followed him around all day. He was actually in a wheelchair (think he had injured ligaments he wasn't disabled) so that was the interest for the cameras. But this propelled him to major heights of annoying prickness.
He had said to a "candy girl" next time i double up i'm having another Snickers bar, she replied "better be quick then" as he was fairly short which we all thought was brilliant as it shut him up for about half a second. However he did manage to get them in 3 times while at the table, each time they were dealing out the 'race' he started yelling at the top of his voice "SNICKEEERRRRSSSS" needless to say espn caught all of them. The funniest one was when he got it all in pre with aces v sklansky's tens for a ten to spike. This allowed Baker (bakes on 2+2) and Bryan Micon's mate (the big fella with the cowboy hat) to go on for ages about him winning Sklansky bucks from Sklansky. I just thought it was funny cause I might see the back of the wee dick soon. We got split late in the day and sure I heard "SNICKEEERRRSSS" just once more.
