Tried that. Didn't work. So went to my method. Clinking the link is incredibly easy. If you don't care enough to click the link then I guess you'll miss out on the pictures

Just overheard a bartender saying that RIO employees (even if they have nothing to do with the poker opps or WSOP) can't play in the WSOP. Interesting

I stumbled on this by accident, the tutorial with imgur etc didn't work for me (had to manually put the codes in).

But tapatalk is perfect. In the reply box there is an up arrow on the left side of the box. Hit that and you can take a pic to reply, or choose a pic from your gallery etc. Wish I knew that for my trip report! Embeds perfectly.

But this is on tapatalk.

Except for your method and links don't work on some phones and tablets. The pages simply don't load.

Imbedded pics make a TR so much better.

Try slowing down for two ****ing minutes and give it another try. You'll be glad you did.

Well after dinner I went and played some poker in the WSOP area and it went bad. JJ vs AA all in pre flop and KK vs AA all in on a Q high flop and a flopped flush against a runner runner boat. Was up $300 on the session before that but ended up down $500.

This led to me going to the pit where I ran like absolute ****. Was in for $2k and had a $400 bet with 9s against a 7 showing. I ran out of money, but the floor let me get more money from my room. I ended up getting a 2 to make 11 so I doubled, and then made 19 on the other hand. Dealer ends up making 18 with an ace under and I win the non double hand and tie the double hand. That led to a big comeback where I made back $400 of the $500 I lost at poker.

I then went back to poker and lost $200 more since I was still steaming from the bad beats before and then went to the pits and pissed away a bunch more playing craps. There's something about this craps table at RIO I just can't getting anything going, and when something positive does happen I lose immediately there after.

Down $3200 now plus the WSOP buy in. I would be completely satisfied if I win $1200 between today and tomorrow and finish the trip only down 2k.

How do I get to Seven Star with Total Rewards? I'm already diamond and I'm interested in getting 7 star since I've given these guys so much money anyway.

I think if I get to 7 star I can pretty much say my 4K loss was worth it for all the free **** I'll get in the future. Or is that just me trying to rationalize my loses

Hit the roulette table. That should take care of everything.

You're rationalizing. Your focus of trying to win back a little bit at a time is the better mindset. Don't tilt in the pit.

I just won $1100 at BJ after losing $500 at craps. Last hand I played I got a blackjack with $125 up and the dealer payed me way extra for some reason. So I tipped her took all my chips and ran. I deserve a $100 or so mistake I guess

Weird time at the pool. Had 2 cocktails and a beer and felt completely out of it. Also my phone stopped working temporarily which caused me to freak out. I'm guessing the 100+ degree heat had something to do with both those things!

First WSOP event tomorrow! Can't ****ing wait.

Stuck 2600 now plus the WSOP buyin

The thing that's pissing me off this trip is the fact that no one is taking each other's 500 or 1k chips without calling back to where the chip is from. That's ****ed

Nope.

Not on every type of device.



But hey, if OP wants to create a sub-optimal trip report just because he can't figure out how to use simple technology like imgur or tapatalk then that's up to him.
