You're right about the sleepers, I've bought, sold, and used quite a few in my time, then about 15 years ago they decided that creasote was carcenagenic and banned the sale of it, along with creasote-treated wood.

They never really enforced it though, treated sleepers are still available and if you say you are a professional user you can still buy creasote.

I drink Cooper's creosote.

Loving the trip reports Tony. Poker, well whatever, you've plenty of time to bink yet. These on the road trip reports are the best. I stopped off at Primm in 2013 driving to Vegas from LA, waiting for dusk so I could drive in to Vegas at night. Keep em coming. Just off to get my sunglasses so I can take a proper look at that photo of you on the track without damaging my eyes.  Cool Grin

My Baseball trip is done and Iโ€™m on my way back to Vegas. Should land around 4.50pm.
Looking forward to some more PLO8 madness this week.

Afternoon.

We have had a wonderful week, & the trip to LA & Oceanside was grand, & we spent some time in Hollywood which Gill thought was amazing. Might bore you with the details & a few photos when time permit.

For now though, it's back to poker with 5 Tournaments in the next 5 days.

This was the choice I indicated for today;

23rd June; Venetian $1,100 PLO8  (alternatives are Orleans $400 PLO8 or Binions $550 PLO8)

Don't know where that Binions thing came from, it does not exist, so it's Venetian $1,100 or Orleans $400. Or, possibly, both....

I overspent on an unscheduled $600 second bullet earlier in the trip, so I think I'll get us back on budget by playing the Orleans $400 today.

Starts at 1pm (9pm UK) & I'm all revved up, though a little apprehensive. That's what 0/5 does.

Updates later.

Going to drop Gill off at Premium Outlets first, which is on W Charlston, near Downtown, will set off at 11.45, drop her off & so will be at Orleans at about Noon or shortly after, so plenty of time.

Hope the rain has stopped over there, I heard it was pretty bad.

Loving the non poker reports bud,  donโ€™t worry about being 0/5, canโ€™t base anything on that sample size.

Just enjoy it and play well, all the best for the rest if your stay.
