Well? I'd say keep taking shots, just don't get buried! Keep a tight stop loss but ride the freakin streak! And mostly play poker where you know you are a favorite!


Just so people don’t imagine it’s always sunshine and happiness:

Slept really bad and woke up at 1 am with a massive Vegas headache. Moved like a zombie to CVS to get some painkillers and chugged a large water and figured I was too tired for poker so why not drop $2k on craps instead?

Ah well such is life.

Currently in a crappy morning game, waiting for table change to the action game:



In the absolute sickest Aria 1/3 game on the planet. Guy is super drunk and on two warnings already. Down $1000 vs him.






Finally…



It ain’t much but it’s honest work.

As someone who knows it much better than I do once said, poker is a hard way to make an easy living.

Who needs poker when you can take the $200 profit into Coin Trio?



Lol, maybe you should wire most of that money home since you've already hit up bj, craps, slots and vp?

Don’t think it’s possible to wire, tried to ask around if anyone wants to buy $$ for bank transfer or anything like that but no luck so far.

Also we are on day 2 out 16, no point selling all of it [emoji846]


I had a raging headache once the session vs the maniac ended so I decided to go back to the room to relax for a couple of hours and watch a movie. Then headed over here for the best sushi rolls on the strip, at Cosmo:


10/10 as always.

Now at the Bellagio in a 1/3 game, staying here until sleep time.


Sounds like a standard swingy day!


winding down at a 1/3 table sounds like the perfect way to turn off your brain for the evening
just be sure you do not leave your bankroll behind

Yeah obviously not bringing $22k with me to play 1/3, or for anything for that matter [emoji23]

You probably could wire it with Western Union, but I imagine fees would be bad. There's also something to be said to leaving a chunk of it in USD to avoid forex on your next trip.

Maybe you could talk to a host at the casino you won it at, and see if they'll give you a "permanent" box. Like the Bellagio poker room prob has permanent boxes.


Leon, what do you do here? I paused for a second since I only had two multipliers out and then I was like I can’t possibly hold the full house with trip aces?


Anyway:




This guy jackpots.


I’m such a VP fish.

Are there multiplier considerations against just keeping the full house and collecting?

Or is 4AWAK always worth drawing at?

Woo Hoo!

Seems odd to see you go from $5 credits to .25 credits tho.

Yes, non-premium full house you keep as the next hand will be 12x across the board

I ran this spot in the paid version of Videopoker.com, and holding the Aces is the right play here with 6x multipliers:

The UX is $25 bet too.


Came back to the room last night at 8 pm, properly exhausted and crashed so hard. Woke up just before 5 am so I unknowingly turned the day I guess? Oh well.

Now at my usual spot:
