  1. Not no limit, Blackjack. The casino makes tons more profit from blackjack over poker, thats why a lower limit blackjack player will get more comps that a poker player.
  2. Maybe we should all have done promo offers instead of the group thing? We would have all been spread out everywhere but it would have saved a few more bucks and alot of time. This was a learning experience to say the least and with all that I have learned I think the group route was alot of headaches for what it is. I have jumped out to Vegas on a few hours notice many times and never had any problems, with this thing it was planned 3 months out and every week it was 4-6 hours of phone tag for one issue or another or it was we need a $10k deposit for this or a $3k attrition for that blah blah blah. Then the casino battles the hotel over miniscule issues and no one knows there ass from a hole in the ground and tons of constant miscommunications. This morning I was told that my host was no longer at Palazzo so I had to be assigned a new one, after 15 minutes and 4 phone transfers they found out he was working till 1 am tonight and just has'nt shown up yet. The first 3 people could'nt find him on the schedule and the 3rd had no problem re-entering all my info under her code so she would be my new host I think next time we should just decide on a hotel and everyone find the best deal possible and let the board know so everyone can book their own reservations. Our rate is $100/night cheaper than standard rates but we are staying on peak nights on a holiday weekend, the $109/night that Wayne has is incredible considering its labor day. Its 5:30 now and I am off to work so I can't leave at 2:30 this afternoon like I planned so I will reschedule my flight till tomorrow afternoon. Yesterday was my Friday but had a situation come up 2 days ago that is forcing me to work today and tomorrow.

  4. This has been an ordeal to say the least to put this trip together so I hope everyone that comes enjoys themselves...I need at lease a week to unwind after the day I had yesterday, was one of the most stressful days of my life where everything went wrong in every direction. Last I was told all the issues were ironed out but with the way the group reservations manager was treating me I think next time we can try Wynn or Mandalay Bay.
  5. I laughed out loud at post 165, I nominate this thread for the lambopower thread of the week
  6. I recieved the wiring information today for anyone who needs to wire in money to play on, pm me if you need it. Wire needs to be sent no later than Tuesday because they need 2-3 days for the transfer to go through and to set up the marker. Other option is to fax a copy of a cashiers check then goto the cage when you arrive with check and they will have you ready to play within 20 minutes.
  7. If things don't work out on this car the one at LoH is pristine.

  12. I have to pay $3,000 by the time everyone arrives or no one will get into their rooms, did anyone book a room without using the link? They used my marker to secure the deposit that was needed for us to get the link and have access to the rooms, now I am told the $3000 is the attrition since we did'nt fill our initial block of rooms. They had us staying from 9/4-9/9 and were trying to charge me for 10 rooms 1 night on the 9th so I am still battling that battle as well.....I am so pissed because I have alot going on right now to be dealing with this on top of my other responsibilities.
  13. I had the same problem with my Dell printer just now, I re-installed the drivers and it worked fine for one job. Ten minutes later I tried to print and it just spit the paper through without printing anything, the ink jets did'nt move or anything. Its been 5 months and it gets used at least once every 6 weeks so I guess its time for a new one

    What I have learned is no matter how well you play if someone is lucky that night you just can't beat them. We had a drunk guy that caught cards like a dream when he was tanked but otherwise he could'nt play for shit. He called a $50 raise from MP under the gun for a head up match. At this point there is only $10 in the pot+the $40 on top raise so he had no business in the hand. Flop was 5d9c7d, he checks then calls a $100 bet, turn is 6d he checks then calls an all in and says I got a flush. Original raiser turns over AdKd which was no suprise and thought he had won then Drunk James turns over 4d8d for the straight flush. He did'nt know he hit the SF, he seriously thought he was setting a trap with his 8 high flush...Sometimes you just can't beat bad play. Or sometimes you just get lucky like this: https://www.pokertableratings.com/replayer/...hash=1812691159 or this: https://www.pokertableratings.com/replayer/...hash=1768698723 <<That is just nasty I have some sessions where I have played 1600+ hands over 11 hours so I have tons of bad bad suckouts. I have 4 different screen names so hard to pull out all my bad beats(given and recieved)there are a few Omaha hands that I would love to find and show you guys...Tens always seem to do me well, worst one was when I flopped middle set(10's)and another guy flopped top set(Ace's) and I quaded up on the river. I have a bad problem calling when I know I am behind and sucking out, I am a calling station online.

    lol nope but everyone seems to ask that or think so. I still work our businesses everyday and have my investments for my daily bread, I suppose I could live off my gambling proceeds but its to much of a grind to have to do on a daily basis...Since the economy slowed down and all of our businesses went down I don't gamble as much and shut down most of my markers. Two were shut down because I had mishaps with the casinos but that is a whole other story.

  17. Hey I also on a Jetta and love it 290'ish whp and 32+hwy mpg can't be beat I have to have a truck, its a TX thing, plus I have alot of toys to tow around. You can still post more here even though you don't own a Lambo, majority of posters don't. I am Lamboless at the moment but still toss my 2 cents in every so often. Congrats again on the new car!!
  18. Sprites reply was hilarious.... Dude, its a Hyundai!!!! In your defense I have a girl in the office who just bought one and loves it. But the issue is you needing reassurance from an online forum and coming back so quickly to see it then feeling let down when there was none. If I had to guess I would suspect you still live with your parents and spend alot of time online. Just out of curiousity how many car forums do you belong to? Congratulations on your first new car as long as it makes you happy and fills its purpose thats all that matters. You will get alot further in life if you don't expect people to slap dicks with you for every little accomplishment. True on the used trucks, new truck prices are ridiculous....My dealer had a 2010 Harley Davidson Edition F 250 with a msrp of $81k. They seem to avg in the mid $50's for just a standard diesel 4x4. I went with the King Ranch just for the chapparell interior, the leather is sick for a pickup. Here is one of my dailys:

    I was jumping when I hit and wanted to push soooooo bad but I was hoping he would hang himself. I just did'nt want to see 2 pair or a set when we got it all in after the last hand we had and the way he had been running. I am usually hyper aggressive and bet/raise 5-7 hands a round so I have a rep to bluff alot. If you ever want to play some up north let me know. One place I play at had 3 strong cash tables going tonight with $2k-$6k on each, this is a $1 $3 game. We had an Omaha game that went 4 days and had $20k on the table at one time, it was sick I bought in for $200 cashed out $1700. Went home went to sleep and went back when I woke up because the game had gotten so juicy, it was crazy.
  21. I have always heard Prague is nice....Nailed plenty of girls from Austria, Hungary, Italy, and Czechylslovakia(sp?)through work. I was always the one introduced to the girls and expected to take them out while they were here for training.

    Check out this beat I put on this guy, the fcuk stick out drew me on the river when I had the nut straight with no possible fush draw. He had top set and called an all in for his whole stack which was $200+ some change and two outed me. Usually I would just take the beat and go on but this guy talked alot of shit so 6 hours later I finally got his ass with this hand: https://www.pokertableratings.com/replayer/...hash=1783755217 He was running hot the whole time and had built up his stack to this from $100 or $200 that he bought in for. He tilted after this hand and was busted 4 hands later and I got up when he quit. It was a good session I made over $1100 that night.
