I'd have to take my shoes off to count that high.
Is that going every day? Do you know about what time it starts?
They should like me in that game, I'll have to ask the rules 3 times on every hand.
Noon daily. Sunday to Thursday. This is the second and final week for this festival.
Apparently they do this 3x a year. Next one is apparently in November.

Not quite right.
49-0 is a split pot game where jacks queens and kings are all 0. So a 5 face card hand would be a 0.
Nut high would be TTTT9.
Need a minimum of 32 to qualify for the high and a max of 9 to qualify for the low.
Had a hand of KJQJ2 (made a “2”) to win a nice pot yesterday.
These games are fun and you won’t find them anywhere else.
Okay, that makes more sense (Thanks Google AI!)
Decades ago I sat in the Sunday 3/6 mixed game at the Imperial Palace. Had no idea about most of the games, and ended up losing a buy-in over 4-5 hours. Lots of fun, at least.
Just going over some other numbers. Kinda pissed at myself that I earned 493 tier credits yesterday.
7 more and I would have gotten a 500 tier credit bonus. $&@$&@!!!!
-255 playing 1/3 NL at Bellagio
Now in the mixed game streets again. Going better than yesterday.
Today’s games:
What is watermelon and peek-a-badugi?
highly advise consuming multiple greyhounds in order to appease the gamboolin gods and right this thing!
Gogogogo
Watermelon: triple board Omaha where the best hand on each board gets one point. Get 2 points and you scoop. If 3 players each win one board, the two best hands chop the pot. If 2 players get 1.5 points each, chop the pot.
Peek-a-badugi is regular badugi with one twist. If you are drawing one card, it is delivered to you face up, and you can take it or receive the next card off the deck face down.
Quick day 3 reacp, because I have a job interview in 20 minutes.
Spoiler: it hasn't gotten any better at all. I might be cursed. Like really cursed.
Played NL at Bellagio (-245), then mixed games (-185), where I made so many 2nd nut hands that just ran into the nuts. If mixed games had been NL, I'd have been down 5-6 buy-ins.
Played craps for about an hour at Flamingo. Wrecked. Honestly, I've never seen craps tables so cold before in my life.
Bet the over and the Knights last night. Wrecked.
Summarized Results total (today's result):
Video Poker: -475 (0)
Craps: -1750 (-600)
Poker: -1149 (-430)
Slots: -1162 (-189)
Sports Betting: -190 (-60)
TOTAL: -4,726 (-1,279) I'm getting ill just looking at the numbers.
Coronas: 9 (+2 today)
Last full day. Send heat.... or at least warmth?

Massively increase the Coronas count as it looks like the only thing you are running ok at?

Speaking of fruit games, pineapple and crazy pineapple seemed to die off. Used to play those at TI occasionally.

Now that my interview is done, I'm not sure. Might go back to mixed games because that's where my hourly loss seems lowest. But text me whenever.
Interview went decent, but…
I met my buddy for breakfast at Rosa Mexicano. Sitting outside and enjoying people watching the escalator.
A bird just crapped on my arm. FFS.
Sorry to hear about the continued run bad. Hope you can pull off a winning day to finish the trip.
