Oh no, not another ThinkerJE in vegas blog!!!
ThinkerJE:
Friday 19 June (Las Vegas)
We finally arrive in Las Vegas after what seemed a much longer than 10.5 hour journey. Damm I love Las Vegas. Every time I get here I still get chills about the place. As soon as I don"t is time to stop coming I think. We taxi to our hotels; I am staying at Harrah"s for a week (got a great comp as it only cost me $85) and Si is in the penthouse suite at Caesar"s Palace (he only got it as Hugh Heffner is out of town this week!!!). The rewards of being a platinum card holder I suppose (people laugh when I flash my gold card) and also very cool that he can watch tv in his mirror when taking a shave.
We pop down to the poker room to check out the action and find that Caesar"s have changed their megastack"s events due to low numbers and player feedback. All events are now $340 buy in with 15k starting stack and 50 mins levels. This suits us fine and they are now getting over 200 runners everyday which will make for some nice prize pools. They are also paying out all prizes in cash (instead of the 10k main event seat idea that died on its arse). We are not playing poker today so instead head out to eat. Cue a fat meal at Toby Keith"s bar & grill, wow this was nice, I had the biggest steak ever, cooked to perfection, which I simply could not finish (and I don"t miss too many meals). The service is also top, the ladies are dressed as cowgirls (think Jessica Simpson "boots are made for walkin" video), very easy on the eye, they got a nice tip. Also had a few beers, the Miller Lite is back and better than ever, the first of many over the next few weeks I think.
After I recovered from the mega feed and was able to move again we headed over to the Imperial Palace and Simon introduced me to Pai Gow. Wow I love this game and it is my new favourite thing to do after busting from tournaments, so addictive and a lot of fun. The dealer goes on a sick run and I do some dollars, but Miller Lite is flowing and the table is buzzing, fun being had by all. The cocktail girls at IP have the lowest cut outfits I have seen for a while, and the only qualification you need to do the job is to be blessed in clevage department. I turned round too quick once and nearly lost both eyes as the Mitchell brothers came racing towards me. Excellent!!!
I finally crashed about 11.30pm after being up for about 22 hours. Hotel at Harrah"s is excellent, lots of room and a comfy bed. Plan is to play the Caesar"s megastack at noon tomorrow.
NO BAD BEATS - Pai Gow rocks!!!
