My Trip to Vegas

Got back from Vegas on July 4th. Spent the night of the 1st through the afternoon of the 4th in the oven they call Las Vegas. Here is a rundown of my few days.

Sunday night- After almost an 8hr flight that included stops in Jackson,MS and Huston,TX, we arrived in Las Vegas around 9pm local time. Made our way to the Excalibur checked in, had dinner, and hit the tables for some Pai Gow, and Roulette. A few hours of gambling and about forty dollars up it was bed time.

Monday- Rented a car and hit the Original Pancake House, Red Rock H&C, Red Rock Canyon, Bonnie Springs Ranch (never go there, ever!!) the Rio, and the Palms. All the H&Cs were awesome, but being in the WSOP room and seeing more big time pros then I can count on my fingers and my toes was amazing. Best thing I saw was Daniel Nagraneu was walking around his table after folding pre flop and came up to the rail. Two ladies asked him for a picture and he AGREED! Right in the middle of a tournament.

Tuesday- Started the day off with a good run at the Hard Rock, then to the Sahara, where my wife continued her roulette streak, taking some of their money. After the Sahara it was off to Cupid's Wedding Chapel where with a little help from Elvis our friends renewed their wedding vows. After the wedding we hit the Fitz, and Four Queens. That night we had dinner at Pampas in the shops by Aladdin, and went to NY NY for some Crazy Four poker. I hit two sets in back to back hands winning 65 bucks per hand. We left the casino after tripling our money. Now here is something I did not think I would see, got back the the Excalibur and found their limits higher then the ones at NY NY.

Wednesday- A little gambling, lunch, the Mandalay Bay Aquarium, and flew home.

Collected a few chips, and three pairs of dice. A great trip all around!
