Hey guys

I've posted trip reports about a ton of my previous Vegas trips so here we go again. Some of you folks have met me in Vegas before. I started posting under this name to better disguise my real life identity.

I love blackjack, craps, poker, nightclubs, and pool parties. So in this trip report you will hear about many of those things.

My main Vegas trip is going to be June 27-July 13. I will be playing a few WSOP events and also plying both of the HU events in the Planet Hollywood tournament series. I'll be playing one of the 1k WSOP events, the 1k online WSOP event, the 1k LITTLE ONE DROP event, and the $888 event. I'm extremely excited to get to play in actual WSOP events.

Outside of playing in those tournaments there will be plenty of degenerate behavior.

I'll be bringing 15k with me for this trip. 5k for the pits, 5k for tourney buy ins, 5k for food, drinks, and clubs.

I'm leaving Thursday for a different trip but will be stopping in LV on the way out of town to register for the Planet Hollywood tournaments. Since both the tournaments I want to play there have hard caps on the number of participants I want to make sure to register early. So I'll be in Vegas this Thursday night, possibly next Thursday for Colossus, and then June 27-July 13. I can't wait. Should be a blast.

I've been playing a lot of poker lately. So hopefully I am ready for the WSOP. In the past trip reports I've basically only did the degen stuff (not much poker). This time there will be more balance between the degening and poker.

I have 3 friends joining me July 7-13 but will be solo for the first week and a half I am in town. So if anyone wants to meet up feel free to hit me up ITT

So I'm staying at Ballys for free the first week of my trip and then moving to Vdara on the4th of July. I just booked a Panoramic Suite there for $3000 for 9 nights. Hope it's worth it

Does anyone know anything about Vdara? I saw pictures of the Panoramic Suite and thought it'd be awesome. Especially on 4th of July.

Me to hot Vegas Slut "Hey baby lets go watch fireworks in my huge ass suite with a panoramic view of the strip"

Hot Vegas slut-"Ok let's go, maybe I can bring one of my girlfriends so we can have a threesome after the fireworks"

Part one of my Vegas summer starts in 5 hours. Like I said I'll be in Vegas tonight (Thursday) and then back again at the end of June.

Won $500 or so today playing poker at the local poker room.

I'll be flying first class today which is something I rarely do. The prices between coach and first class were not much different so I decided to spring for first class. Going into Vegas you always want to feel good, and I figured flying first class would help me feel my best upon arrival in Vegas.

I never sleep the night before early flights so I've been up all night playing poker, and hanging out with a buddy of mine at a bar. Leaving for the airport in 2.5 hours. Can't wait

Here at Sea Tac airport now. I got emails warning me about long security lines, so I arrived early and he security line was less than 5 min long. So now I'm killing time at the airport. Getting excited to get to Vegas, even though it's just for one day for now. I also decided I'm playing Collasus on Thursday. Should be sweet. Plane boards in 1 hour. In Vegas in 4 hours

We stayed at Vdara for 2 weeks last year during Colossus and WSOP in one of the corner suites and loved it. Fantastic views. Has the kitchen which was handy for eating leftovers and whenever we woke up. The washer and dryer is also good to have.

Recommend you try them out

Ran like **** to start the trip. Lost 800 at craps and then bought in for 1200 at BJ and made 700 of it back. Down 100 so far.

a dude asked me if I was on 2 plus 2 I said yes. He told me he was Escobar, I gave him a who the hell is that look. Apparently he played 500-1000 back in the day on FT and now hosts a game that solja boy plays in
