thought it would be a good thread to have stories/tips on what to do when severely under it in vegas. I'l prob be under it the whole of the series after the worst 9 months ive ever had. Ive paid for accom and flights/car hire etc, but i doubt i will be living the lavish style too much this year. While i wont be going hungry or staying in the flood tunnels it would be good to have some sort of nits in vegas thread. Also any vegas spin up stories obv

Sell shares to tournys u aint gonna play? Obviously pick non wsop ones so it cant be tracked
Get staked for cash and skim off the stack?
Swap %s with half field and dont tell backer?
Lay bets u have no intention of paying out on?
Do the "my visa card" been blocked trick?
Befriend a host at one of nightclubs and arrange a small % for bringing people?
Befriend stripper and get a % if u guarantee to bring people x amount of times a week?

One of best Vegas stories- Remember seeing Bushy and Penly on plane somewhere in the pit about 5/6 years ago- Penly was under it and Bushy boxing him off, paid for his flights, shared room in Gold Coast, paid food internet etc. Anyway Penly has a spin up online about 2 weeks in, wins 200k- checks himself into Bellagio, leaves Bushy in the Gold Coast and proceeds to do the lot in the next 2 weeks and flies home same way he came out, without a coin. Dont even think he sorted Bushy the $10 a day internet

Ellis Island steak lunch.  About $7, have to ask for it as its not on the menu.  Great piece of steak, side salad and I think a beer as well.  Oh and its a microbrewery with some really nice beers, especially for America.  Ellis Island is behind Ballys, off Flamingo.  Here's a blog I found about it: http://momskitchencooking.blogspot.co.uk/2008/06/steak-special-at-ellis-island.html

Make time to do non poker/gambling stuff.

Personally I would go and do some outdoor touristy stuff, redrock canyon, hoover dam etc as you have the car.

You could go downtown for an hour or so and I think I maybe under it but at least I am not these people.
