We got here and after a little altercation with a taxi driver we went to the Wynn. My friend was playing the 200r and managed to sort us a really good deal out for £ into $. Didnt have enough for me though.

I bought some Dr.Dre headphones and then went in to check into our first hotel/3. Was nice, not amazzzing, but nice. We went to the MGM casino and sat down at my first cash game outside of Europe :d Was no seats at 500nl so just grinded 100nl and lost a chunk. Bought into the 500nl game when there was a seat and ended up winning around 6 bis
I met someone there and we went to Bellagio for drinks and some food. They started taking drugs and I wasnt keen (it was 9am Gibraltar time as this point and I hadn't slept) I walked back across the strip thinking wow this is the life and then put my head down and had a nice sleep.
Johannes (Soycd) woke me up in the morning telling me I was talking poker in my sleep :tongue: He said I just kept saying, I've got 24, I've got 2/4. Probably saying I was all in etc all night. Crazy!
Woke up at 9 this morning, went over to the WYnn and checked in. "Would you like 2 doubles or a deluxe king room sir?" weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. We have seperate rooms and I really, really like min. There is a huge jacuzzi which I'm going to take care of later.
I walked out onto the poker room and played some 1/3. Played really good and won 2 bi's or so in 90 minutes and came back to my room to call someone but they were offline so I'm just chilling waiting for them and then will.
People who know me know I don't mind parting with $$$$$, however here the city is just so money driven its sick. We had a 5 minute cab and the meter said $10.50 I was like, just take $11 mate and he was going crazy asking where his tip was, I told him it was in his exaggerated meter rate and then tossed him a couple of $ and said bye! Drnks are free everywhere for poker players, so thats cool!
