Yes after rivering a straight to beat the set of 9s, he was at least kind enough to split the pot with her.

The girl who upgraded us to the penthouse was pretty hot. Her name was Nina. I took the liberty of calling her from one of the bathrooms for instructions on using the bidet.

that was hilarious
great trip report!!

I cant wait for my first time to vegas

Did you guys ask for an upgrade or did they just offer it to you?

Basically, Nina said she could up grade us for 150 more than we would pay for the regular room. 2kf and Cup hesitated and i blurted out, "yes please." Then she said, "oh, the only one I have available has a king size bed." To which 2kf (I think) replied "ooooo, that will be great, there's only four of us."

ArchAngel kindly linked to this in another thread, but it's classic enough that it deserves a full-fledged bump for those who may have missed it...

I did sing Rocky Mountain High while I flew in. Then I lit my Country Music Award on fire.

"Hi. First we landed. Then we went to the hotel. Then I got rivered in the 2/4 game. Then I went for dinner. I liked the restaurant. I will take my kids here. Then I played a $5 tournament and got rivered. I lost money, but I had a good time."

Any Vegas trip report without booze, hookers, nugs, or breaking the law can not be a "trip" report.

In fact, this whole thread should have been titled a Vegas trip

Another time, 2kf wins a huge pot and after the hand, passes $3 to everyone at the table so that everyone would have a free ride to see the next flop.

Can you do this? I have limited B&M experience and I saw one guy try to give another guy some chips and the dealer said, "no-can-do." I would love to do this some time, but don't want to ruin the thing by being told I can't do it.

Thanks for bumping this. Those are some freaking awesome memories.

We definitely raised the bar for ourselves with that trip, but Vegas still has so much untapped potential, kegs and ass. The bar can and will go much, much higher.

Rest assured that next time we're in Vegas, we'll be calling on 2+2 to help tear Vegas a new one.

Well put. Everytime I read this I say, "I gotta have one of those trips." Reality is that I would be asleep by 3:00 the first night and two hungover from that night to do anything the rest of the trip. Won't keep from trying sometime, though.
