Vegas & The Aftermath

Nice one Tony, I hope to join you tomorrow. 2 bullets no joy yesterday.
Down to 7k (from 25k) after 5 hands today but somehow on 1st bullet with 55k first break. Crazy game .
Good luck tomorrow if I don’t see you - which hotel did you move to ?

Morning Rob.

I had a peruse of the WSOP App but never saw your name there, no good? What's today's plan?

Hotel palaver - I never changed Hotels, I changed Rooms. There's some obscure Nevada State Law that says you are not allowed to book more than 10 or 12 days at a time & Boyd Gaming, who own The Orleans, enforce it. So I had 2 bookings, back to back. Checked out at 11am, went & did some shopping, came back an hour later & checked back in.

Yeh no joy in big O, lasted to level 10. Then had many many corona .
Early bath today in plo at V too.
Just went through extending my stay until next Tuesday which despite being diamond plus was still a hassle.
In my app it says all comped but host in diamond room insists I pay a paltry $30 a night for 3 nights - so little I’m not sure why they don’t just comp it all lol . She also tells me I have to go the old fashioned go to front desk tomorrow evening to see if they can keep me in the same room the next day and avoid “moving rooms” like yourself. Sometimes I do wonder if it’s 2026, some things are still way behind the ball for modern times.

This "having to switch rooms" malarky makes no sense, but I guess they are just staying the right side of the Nevada rule thing.

Mr google states....

There is no Nevada law specifically preventing hotel or motel stays longer than 11 days. In fact, under state law, stays that go beyond 30 consecutive days trigger Nevada Revised Statutes Chapter 118A, which governs landlord-tenant relationships. Because of this 30-day threshold, many hotels and resorts in Nevada limit stays to 14, 21, or 28 days to prevent guests from legally establishing permanent "residency rights". If a guest attains tenant status under state law, the hotel must pursue a formal, lengthy court eviction process to remove them.To get around this and avoid establishing legal tenancy, many extended-stay properties or hotels require long-term guests to either:Temporarily check outMove into a different roomFor stays expected to last longer than the 11-to-30-day threshold, extended-stay properties operate under different licensing rules than standard, transient resorts

I knew it was 30 days, so surprised by their rules for a short stay in comparison.
Though populised by Howard hughes refusing to leave his hotel, it's more about they can no longer charge you tax on your hotel stay after 30 days
