Gambling Weekend

I definitely can't complain about working too much. I've had the last 4 out of 5 days off from work and I'm definitely enjoying my time off. On Friday MiamiDon and I met up with Pauly over at the Red Rock for some quality gambling togetherness. I was actually running pretty hot that day too. We started off watching football and baseball in the sportsbook as I played draw poker. I was hitting some small pots and some flushes and straights with a couple of full houses thrown in there for good measure when I looked down and noticed quad 3's on my screen. I love that!!!!! I turned my initial $20.00 into $95.00 and cashed out.



I tried to focus on the games for a few minutes, but apparently I have A.D.D. when there are slot machines in the vicinity so I left the sportsbook in search of a Lucky Lemmings machine. I didn't have to walk far. I sat down and put in a $15.00 voucher that I never cashed in from my last trip and I was off! I hit the bonus round twice I think and my little lemming guy was scuba diving finding treasure chests and then he found a space suit and he flying around picking treasure satellites or whatever - anyway, I turned that $15 into about $45 in like 10 minutes so I cashed out.

I walked back over to the sportsbook and persuaded the guys to go play craps with me. There was only one $5.00 game running and of course it was the most crowded game. We had to stand back and wait for some people to leave. I rushed in first when I saw someone edging away from the table and I put down $100.00. I promptly lost that in about 6 minutes. Don and Pauly got spots right next to me after I plunked down my next $100.00 and we got HOT. Pauly had a great writeup about it. Apparently my cleavage was a lucky charm for the table...



I don't remember how long we played for, but I know I cashed our for about $250.00. So, I made fifty bucks and had a blast.

After craps we had dinner over at T-Bones. YUMM! That place is so freakin good. I had the lobster bisque as an appetizer and then I had the crabcake appetizer as my entree. It was definitely enough food!

I worked Saturday night - made some decent money. Nothing too exciting to report on about work except that we hired another girl. That means that there are now 2 people that have less seniority than me and I'm not the "new girl" anymore. YAY!!!!! That makes me extremely happy.

This is a picture of the belt I ordered online and I'm still waiting for it to arrive in the mail...

Yesterday I went to the Red Rock pool during the day with a few friends. It was HOT! I sat in the pool for most of the time and watched people get drunk and fall down. Apparently, the area surrounding the pool gets very slippery when wet. I really got a good laugh everytime someone fell. I actually ran into some co-workers over there because they had a cabana right next to ours. I met some strippers from Seamless and they gave me some 2 for 1 passes. Wasn't that nice? Strippers are the best and so friendly!

After laying out at the pool, I met Grubby and Pauly and Don over at the Sahara for the 7 p.m. Tournament. I lasted longer than Don and Pauly, but Grubby outlasted us all. He was three away from making the money though, so that definitely sucked.

I found my way over to the craps table after the tournament and I was sucked in once again. I was down $60.00 in a matter of minutes, but then the table got hot and I ended up cashing out for like $230.00 I think. I made about $130.00, so I re-couped my poker losses and then some. Fun day! I love days off. I'm off today too, but I go back to work tomorrow.

Thanks for the helpful suggestions regarding my picture problem. I still get error messages when I try to post pictures using blogger. So, I downloaded Photobucket using Pokerwolf's suggestion and it seems to be working - yay!!

You are SUCH a luckbox.


The REAL test for bad movies will be how many go to see that poker movie starring Drew Barrymore.
