DAY NINEPretty dull day. Lazed around caught up on sleep. Starting a cash session at 6pm and by 12pm I was knackered and in a dull game so just went home. Won $500. Good to put a stop to the 4 on the trot 4 figure losing days anyway...for now.
DAY TENNot at all a dull day! Started off dull tbf, grinding a boring venetian cash game from midday till about 630pm. Really over the games here. Limping, no bluffing, no action, no banter. It's a real GRIND. It's profitable yes, but not massively. There's no donations really, it's just grinding an hourly.
So I was looking for action, and what better way than to spend every tournament break that stato was on, in the pit! So I had my timer set for every 2 hours to trundle down to the Palazzo and meet stato, and head to the CRAPS table
Loving that game at the moment, but by god I run shit at it. Won $50 in the first break. Decent. 2 hours later it's his dinner break. Uh oh. Lose $1.1k.
Obv can't go back to the 2/5 game now. I cash out and go meet Nick and Mitch at the Wynn. We had tickets for Le Reve at 930 so had a few drinks with them first. They were playing blackjack. SIGH chips please dealer. Playing $25 a box I lost $600. WTF. Mitch and Nick both won chunks.
LE REVE - was SO GOOD
Lots of this sort of stuff
Incredible tekkers, just a brilliant brilliant show. Definitely better than Ka. Loved it. (Yes I look like a clown in shorts in a show but I didn't have time to go back and change, well I could've got a cab there and back really quickly but didn't want to spend $30 doing that. Losing a bag at craps seemed much more economical).

It's pretty hazy but I think the next stop of the night was the CRAPS table. This session was definitely the funnest session yet. We had Mr Lee (we called him Chippyman by the end) and his wife Mrs Lee (on the left).
Mr Lee was a legend. So good for morale! And we had this incredible hot LA chick on our right who was in town for the night (with her boyfriend blah blah blah) and we made friends with them (they were called Will and Kate lol) and had a reet good laf. Pics for the fans obv:

I actually WON $50 in this session like a boss
THEN we rounded up Keith (made day 2 of the $5k oioi) and Stato (it's pretty hard to get him away from the OFC tables these days) and headed to Planet Hollywood to at least ogle some boobies while we gamble away our rolls. For some bizarre reason we ended up at the one blackjack where the dealer wasn't dressed in slutty lingerie, but was called Dave and was bald. So we only had Mitch and Stato's moobs to ogle at. MARV.
I was seriously wasted by this time as well. 4/5 very manly daiquiris (with whipped cream obv) and 3x pinot grigios and a couple of beers is all it takes to get me smashed. Since my stop loss for table games is $100 per day and I was already $1.7k in the hole I thought that might as well get another $300 out and quit if I lose that.
This is where I'm supposed to get it all back, plus $5k on top get some hookers and blow and finish the night properly.
Nope. I run incredibly bad at all forms of gambling (except Poker, fortunately) and lost that too. Everyone wanted to carry on playing of course and I was so drunk I couldn't even find my way to the exit of the casino. Stumbled round on my own for a while. Bumped into them again. Then lost them again, found a taxi and got outta there.
<3 VEGAS
