Talking about blasts from the past.  Just noticed Ben Grundy is playing the 10k PLO8.  He used to absolutely crush omaha on Betfair winning millions allegedly, and then just seemed to disappear.

Think he now has one of the largest gaps on his Hendon Mob after cashing the other day.  He is really low, so is unlikely to cash big, but gl to him.

Weirdest Vegas trip, ever.

Wasn't supposed to be home until 14th, but mum was struggling out there so changed flights to come home with her on the 7th, and then changed them again to fly home yesterday.

My regular cab driver had a touch, as he got my UFC ticket Cheesy

Hardly been online other than for work, but will try and have a catch up on the thread at some point.

Looks like a few blondes have had some runs, and hopefully a few more to come in the main Smiley

Oh, that sounds a bit grim Marky.  Hope your ma is feeling better back home.

Are you done with Vegas or back for a last hurrah next year?

Oh my, that's a shocker mate.

Hope Mum is OK now.

She's definitely happier now she's home, and the 2nd week once I moved down to the Nugget with her was better than her first.

The Nugget was 'their place', and I think we all underestimated how tough she'd find it without him there, even though we both were.

Don't get me wrong, we had the odd day where she had a great time, and forgot about things which was good. They were understandably a rarity over the 2 weeks, though.

I'm probably done until she wants to go back, or at least until I'm ok leaving her in the house alone for more than a day or two.

Just a play it by ear thing for the foreseeable, and not like it's going anywhere.

Maybe it'll be for the best, as it was even starting to irk me a little with all the squeezing we're seeing as customers at present Smiley

Exactly what I thought mark
I/we’ve been going since 2004 and noticed how much more expensive it is
If we go next year it may be our last one
By staying off strip our money goes further
Downtown now seems like a zoo - more so than ever
Vegas’s attitude to tourists is changing to giving “ bang for our buck “ to one of rinse us

A few things irked me a bit this year, and that might have gone hand in hand with the last few months.

I tip very liberally in Vegas, and it's a running joke amongst most of the KK lot whenever we get a bill.

Getting a computer shoved in your boat everytime you buy something and it asking you to tip 15/18/20%, was even starting to rub me the wrong way Cheesy

I'll prob leave it until if/when mum wants to go again, and will likely just go around any UFC cards I want to see, rather than the WSOP. I prefer the weather at Xmas, too.

Downtown was fine from the few trips I went out driving about. Strip much the same, and the crowds were wild most of June.

Vegas is just doing what Vegas does, and operating as a business. I can't blame them for it, but I can choose to spend my money elsewhere. People are in there spending wildly outside of gambling, so its focus is on that more than ever.
