Hand History from Thursday night. You got the stones to jam?
I feel like if you jam, you're turning a hand with showdown value into a bluff specifically to get him to fold a better hand.

I'd just call.

Spoiler:
They are humidification beads. Cigars need to be stored near 70% relative humidity and these beads swell up with water and help regulate a higher humidity in the humidor.

I hear ya. I ended up calling and he showed J9dd for a flopped flush and really really didn't like my call. He's not raising and firing with AK there so I really don't beat anything. Would've been those rare times where I'm uncapped, get a perfect scare card with perfect blockers with big stack sizes against a player who could actually fold a value hand. Doesn't happen too often in the 2/5 streets.

I normally do countdown pics leading up to a LV trip and that cigar label makes an appearance every year or so.
Good point. At first I was a little meh but wifey bought 2 new mom-appropriate-slutty dresses so here I am bringing not one, but two pocket squares.

Should still be summer chic in that I'm not wearing slacks, but will go with jacket and Allen Edmonds and a button down for dinners and evening wear.

I alluded to this in my last TR, but I'm a big fan of watches and showcased my Rolex Day-Date along with some other never-going-to-happen wish list items. Hopefully we'll get to try on some of these at the boutiques and get to take some cool pictures.

But since that trip I had an interesting thing happen. I started to get unhappy with the Rolex. It's a great watch and the back story was I inherited it from my grandfather, but it really began to lose it's appeal for me. Maybe it's too gaudy or maybe I'm going through a late 30's crisis, but I started asking around and ended up selling it. (Side note: Yes I sold the watch I inherited from my grandfather. Technically he didn't give it to me and I asked my dad for it once he passed away. We weren't terribly close and he was mostly an alcoholic ******* so it had less sentimental value than you might think.)

Anyways, all that to say I went on a new watch hunt and surprised myself with what I bought. Panerai 797. I would've never thought that I would ever be attracted to a Panerai, but something clicked with me about it in the complete opposite way as the Rolex. Unique design, more casual, under the radar, and customizable (lots of strap offerings). I was smitten and finally pulled the trigger.




And like a watch diva, I am bringing both straps! Rubber is super comfortable and great for the pool and swamp wrists in the Vegas heat. Suede for classing it up a little. (As much as you can class up this tool watch.)

Ha, I saw that! I figured it must be connected to me and will probably comment on it as well.

I just like MarshMan's style. Not sure I'd play in a suit for more than a short session, but I can see how it could be a conversation starter at the table.

I'd have to steam the hell out of the suits after I got back, though.

And as someone that dresses very casually most days I like to dress up when in LV. Not always a suit, but still.

I'm the same as you when I'm in LV. Blazer, nice shoes, nice shirt. Jeans or slacks depending.

About to board Vegas flight. Should I self check in to the hotel online or wait and do the $20 trick at the chech in counter? I usually have good results with it but not standing around is also a plus.

$20 trick for your readers! I haven't tried it in a long time. We need data on its continued effectiveness.

Might be covid related but 1 real person for 10 automated check in devices at PH. So no $20 trick in play. Literally the worst view room ever. Level 8
