Woke up around 11am after falling asleep about 2am - not too bad - had a good night's rest -- then, while watching a Star Trek TNG marathon, I fell asleep again until about 2:45pm lol - Showered, got dressed and headed to grab some caffeine - once the caffeine was in my bloodstream, I sat down for a blackjack session: 25min 2D DOA H17 No surrender
Played with a lady sitting at the table already - I sat at 1st base - Pushed the first hand of 20 - Both the other lady and I lost every other hand in the shuffle -125
Next shuffle - nothing really to report as the losing continued until the lady at the table had had enough and left - leaving me to play alone, now down 175 out of my 250 buy in - With only 75 left of the buy in I went for broke and put up the 75 -- won the hand - Next hand I put up 50 - got dealt a 9,2 v dealer King -- doubled - dealer busted - I was back to my buy in of 250 - Another gentleman sat down at 3rd base, from Boston, and the dealer had or made a 20 on the first 7 hands straight - luckily, I had 21 on 4 of those occasions WOOHOO -By the end of that shuffle, I was +100 for the session and took a break for some more caffeine - Trip -2150
I was just walking on the Strip and one of the S&M cops with the whip hit me in the a$$ with her whip as I walked by - I neither requested it nor welcomed it - if one of the shirtless men who pose for photos on the Strip smacked a woman on the a$$ as she walked by - society would be outraged and the #metoo movement would protest - I get whipped and people walk by smiling and giggling
Showered, got ready and headed down to the casino for some iced coffee and blackjack...Sat down to play at a 25min tableRight from the start the dealer was pulling hands left and right - then some guy sat down and decided he wouldn’t double or split any hands nor would he hit on any 14-15-16 v dealer 10 - he was quickly wiped but, so was I - lost the 350 I had gained back earlier in about 10 minsTrip is -2500Switched tables and, in the first shuffle, the dealer dealt herself a 12 on five occasions -- on each and every 12, she pulled a 9 -- there are only eight F'n 9's in the entire 2 decks and she pulls five of them at exactly the right timeTrip is -2600
Slots interlude:
My dad gave me 100 to play Wheel of Fortune slots for him - sat down at a $1 machine playing max credits — after 20 spins, the credit readout read $207 -- my pops wins $107
Pops +107
OK here we go - headed and got some iced coffee then sat down at a 25min double deck gameI had four 20s in the first shuffle - dealer made a blackjack on three of them and a 21 on the otherThe first hand of the next shuffle i had 50 up and dealt an 8,3 v dealer 5This idiot says: “This is a guaranteed win” - which, I knew, meant I would lose - he turned over a 9 then dealt himself a 7 for 21 - he turned over my face down card and it was, naturally, a 3Trip is -2900Took a breather by walking over to the Flamingo and walked right in on this:[wpvideo XQkUhvXm] I sat down to a 6D game in the Flamingo high limit pit and, without much ado, had won 1k by the end of the shoeTrip is -1900As I had not eaten anything the entire day, I decided to sidle up to the counter at Johnny Rocket's -- to my chagrin and surprise, the menu was completely downsized - they did not even have BBQ sauce #ComeOnManThe waitress was great though so that was a plus - had a cheeseburger and fries and, feeling satiated, headed back to the Cromwell where a line snaked from one end of the casino to the other -- apparently, Snoop Dogg is performing at Drai's nightclub tonight in honor of 4/20
And with that, I am in the room relaxing - it was a roller coaster of a day - will do it all again tomorrow
