Thanks for posting, Leon. I am not a VP player, but I really enjoy your writing and your honesty. Plus the food and room porn is fabulous! So sorry about the run bad this trip.

Alert! A new restaurant at Wynn (because we all know you're going back there after all this) for next visit. I appoint myself Theead Restaurant Leader and demand (beg) a detailed report (please). You can skip the $999 entree however, that's your call.

Yeah, holding the kicker on DDB is much better than not holding the kicker on TDB. And I've read players on videopoker.com who always did the latter. Ugh. They shouldn't be playing TDB if they don't hold the kicker.

Bummer you didn't get any traction this trip. It was a nice read otherwise.

Thanks for telling me about this, I had no idea. Definitely going to check it out, if for no other reason than it's something new to eat at the Wynn. Depending on who I go with and how much food comp I have, I might have to get the 999$ entree just because. If I eat there I'll tell you all (all y'all) about it!
