I still need to finish my last TR, had a crazy last night on that trip but I'm gonna start this one while I can still remember what little I can.
Sat next to some people that lived near me on the plane, they were cool and eventually the dude told me he was a pro wrestler. I didnt recognize him, but vaguely remember the name. Hurricane Shane Helms. He had some good stories, showed me some pics Ric Flair had sent him from his 30 for 30 premiere. We caught an uber together, found out we had some mutual friends, cool folks


The plan was to slow down the gambling/black jack this trip, try and stick to poker... well that plan was doomed with my first vodka buzz


I had lost many hands and went all in here. If I had lost this hand I woulda been in bad shape, went on a run though




Ended up getting very, very drunk that night. I used to hardly ever black out, but it seems like I do a lot out here. Often I have to look at my phone the next day to remember. Went to the bar and drank with friends for a long time, probably went to bed around 9:30.
I'll fill in the rest with a few pics from Saturday night, had a good time.
I was up over 8k for the trip this morning and lost that sober today. Just couldn't win a hand. Went ahead and chased with the Chiefs tonight


Go Chefs

I was supposed to be on a month-long diet, but I'm gonna need some popcorn for this one....

Was that really $3500 on one BJ hand?

Go Chefs!

HaHa nice. Last time I went Chiefs and over I got bailed out by a miracle meaningless TD on last play of the game. Would love to do it again tonight.

Garbage time TD ftw!

I'm curious how you ended up with bet amounts of 4400 and 1840. Kinda random amounts. Just what you had on hand?

Had 4400 to put on chiefs, not realizing juice was -120, then had 1k for parlay, but went ahead and added 2 winning slips from yesterday. Thanks for pulling with me, got lucky

Ouch, -120. Is that normal these days, or was the Denver side even money?

awesome to see your Chiefs bet this morning; and i guess the only silver lining in losing 8k is that you did it when sober. I don't mean to be sarcastic, but instead, that should make you feel less guilty about blacking out and losing money (since you are also willing to gamble big when sober).

looking forward to the rest of this TR!

Definitely a baller trip report I look forward to.

When Arthurbach first started posting these Vegas trip reports, I thought they were levels..not so.

$3,000 blackout drunk blackjack hands FTW!

Thanks for the love, pulling for Chefs. Needed that one. Saturday night was a lot of fun. It was around 9:30 pm, I was still hungover, hadn't started drinking. I walked through the poker room when a guy I know yells my name, tells me to sit down, saying you will fit right in at this table. I think my insides still hurt from laughing so much, wasn't even drunk yet, good lord it was funny.



This guy right here was funny as crap and kept going at it with this other dude. He was going for the gut with some low blows talking all kinds of crap, then the dude said something about the mole on his face I think, then he gets upset. They almost threw blows, very close to it a few times. They were throwing chips at each other and the dealer was deaf, couldn't speak either. I felt so bad for the dealer trying to keep that game under control, he had no idea what was going on. When I am the one trying to calm folks down, you know its bad. The dude in pic ended up getting cut off from alcohol and disappeared

Couple of long time friends, I love Halloween.
I was dressed as Waldo, all night girls were saying "I found you" and I was eating it up telling em they found the perfect man, etc. is what they found.

I don't recall things very well at this point, if not for pics I would have forgotten. I wound up at aria poker, I went all in blind several times, maybe 6 or 7 not sure, but I remember getting KK twice in a row and doing ok. Someone I didnt know posted a pic of me on facebook, then a friend that posts on here saw it and tagged me, funny stuff


Ran into Britney Spears... or close enough




I cut up with Britney a bit, walked by a roulette wheel, told her to pick a number and I threw 10 in it. It hit, gave her half an we played a while



Maybe it was the outfit, maybe I was drunk (probly a little of the first, a lot of the second) but I was in love

A local saw the pic and said she was a tableside massage girl here and I got excited. I think I saw the massage girl he was talking about, wasn't her but she tripped out over it, looked like her.

Of course in that drunken state I was gonna wind up at black jack. This was almost a disaster, I lost like 5 in a row, kept buying in more, but eventually got right. Only made a few hundred I think, almost lost a ton





Hung out all night, got some good photos but not sure if friends want their pic on here. Saturday night was great.

Sunday I just slept and hurt, very hungover. Stayed up all night and slept through football. Woke up about 4am Mon. morning, started playing video poker while talking to employees at PH. Lost 700 on that crap. Walked over to Aria to hit the spa (great spa, best on the strip I think, only one with coed areas) Sober as crap, thought I'd play a little b jack, lost a lot, came back to PH, lost more. Down about 8k I went big on the Chiefs. Averted disaster again, gotta quit this crap because I know it will burn me.... but to truly make a go at calming down I would have to quit drinking... *** that


Recently discovered Strip House at PH, its great. Ate it and it put me in the dirt, slept til about 1am. Hung out at the bar awith some friends after they got off work, lost on that dagon video poker machine again, 500 maybe. Decided to chase, put 1100 one hand of b jack Its usually the dealer beating my 20 with his 21, got very lucky

Went over to Aria bit, not much going on, drank at cosmo. Surprise surpise wound up at b jack again, did ok though I think, really no telling




"no pictures" ... I'm just texting




not a selfie guy, but I wanna show off my t shirt. Several smartasses tonight said I reminded them of Forrest. I said thanks, sincerely



Saw daylight for the first time in a while


Had some business to take care of with this little ***** brat named Larry Sellers. He lives near the In-N-Out though. Very glad they have one on the strip now



That catches me up now I think. Only slept a couple hours, but gonna try and nap, enjoy Halloween night

I think Denver was even money. Online had Chiefs at -7.5 and +105 I think. Wish I had gotten that at sportsbook, woulda made a big difference
