In all honesty I want to just jump on a plane

I read this as "jump off a plane" and almost had a heart attack :f_o:

Sounds like you're on a pretty unlucky streak! There's a very easy solution for that though.

Stop playing poker and put it all on red :coolface:

Or you could jump on a plane and fly over the grand canyon. ;)

Man you're in Vegas, tons of shit to do besides poker. Get drunk or whatever.

Don't listen to this maniac.
Everybody knows that in this situations you should put everything on black. :)

Two things:

Vegas can be the most depressing place on earth once you start losing and get results oriented. Remind yourself then that it is a FUN place and you didn't come there with a mission. Everything in LV has a price tag and that doesn't help, however look around, guys go there just to get drunk as f*ck, girls to have sex with random strangers, it's not a bad place, eh. Just think outside of the box.

As I already said before, NL100 is played by bloody lunatics and amateurs, most of the time, in most rooms. If you're on a downswing there's a big chance that no matter how good you play, some idiot's gonna river you every freakin time, with any two cards. They won't care about their 100 bucks, playing every nice looking hand, it's Vegas ffs. You want to see how big the difference of players is, buy in into a 2 / 5 game for 200$, they might push you around a lil bit with their big stacks, but i guarantee you that solid play will double your money.

I've decided to stop being such a baby a few days back. I'm on Vegas, enjoy!
Still running horrible but I just don't care now, I've been co plemented on down of my hands that I've played very well, this was from regs/locals so I'm proud of myself there. I've lost so much calling pocket pairs and co pletelu missing. But maybe if I'm lucky the swing will come back around whilst I'm here ans I'll hit everything :P

Had some food at The Burger Bar for free thanks to my comps playing at Mandalay Bay so much, was very nice and recommend. Still have enough for a free buffet tomorrow and a free meal the next day. Wool slop :P

Well?! Sorry. I get confused with the days and forgot what happens when and to post... >,<

What I do know is that I Sat in Mandalay Bay yesturday watching the Superbowl and playing poker. I Sat with $200 and needed up leaving after 6 hours or so with $890.

They where also rubni g a raffle where you get a ticket for every hour you've played in the last 2 weeks. I had around 65 and there was only 450 on the machine. They spun it every time there was a field goal or touchdown in the game. Which was about 8 spins. I got only 1 win 😭 $150 for free is better than nothing though.

We then grabbed some food and moved onto MGM for a few hours where I started with $200, I grinding this up to $495 and went home (yes, we've started calling our room home ) I added it up to be a +$1135day. It wawasn't from getting lucky. I didn't win too many big pots, I just managed to hold up and bet/bluff the right spots. That took me into profit again for the trip, bit I'm currently down $250 in my current game.

We also went sown the the other end of the strip to check out Circus circus etc. Couldn't wait to get out of them as soon as we enetered - so much smoke!

I did manage to face my fear of heights and ride the thing on top of the Stratosphere that goes up/down. I could stomach the other 2 rides or freefall thing though, maybe next time.

Tomorrow will be our last full day. We have to checkout at 11am the day after and our flight doesn't leave unroll 8pm so will have a little time left.

We're a little disappointed that we didn't do a lot whilst we was here. But our plan was to come here and play poker, check out the rooms and just see Vegas a little which is what we've done. I should be coming hone with the money I brought with me too which has also paid for all expenses whilst here which isn't too bad.

I will be booking again for next year but then will be the real vegas experience, I know the layout and how things work and that more $ is needed. I did have a few rough days but overal I've enjoyed the experience and can't wait for the rebooking.

Nice! Breaking even is a good accomplishment IMO. Run bad accounted for a lot of your losses as well.

Enjoy your last day!
