So. Here's the question: Pros?


Probably just UNLV boys in their 'experimental' phase.


I'm walking through the Mandalay Bay, heading back to the elevators after having hung out in the sportsbook lounge playing video blackjack


Sucker.

I can't stand that place. The noise level just walking to the poker room is preposterous even by vegas standards. I wouldn't say I hate it as much as NY/NY, but it's close.

Straight. **** off and let me post. It's not true, it's all in good fun. Now go away.

Wait, I saw this one on CSI. They were going to take you upstairs and ritualistically sacrifice your blood to an idol made of raw pork and paper mache. But the other person in the room already would have been too much clean up work afterwards.

Wait, I saw this one on Lost. They were going to talk you into joining a pharmaceutical company to work on fertility treatment. But as soon as you refused, a truck would mysteriously kill someone you dearly loved, but had hurt in the past, mostly because of misplaced idealism and pride, when all you really wanted was to feel loved and cherished, but isn't that just the way these things happen, thereby forcing you to go to Australia with a bunch of weirdos, on some dodgy plane, for some half-assed reason.

I actually prefer noisier establishments. Better if there's some kind of musical performer(s) nearby. For me, it's not about the gambling but the atmosphere and the people. I suppose I could hang out in some quiet corner somewhere, but then what's the point?

On the plus side, I did meet a rock-paper-scissors champion while there. True freaking story...

they were looking to roll your stupid ***** probably had a shiny watch, and some expensive shoes mabe?

they go up, slip you a micky, walk away with all your sheit. the friend upstaires turned them away. another person makes it more complicated, thus the attempt to get you in a limo, one im sure who will take a piece of the action to forget what they looked like. a two on one situation again.

pros dont have a problem with adds, just means more money.

you ALMOST got exactly what you deserved for being there in teh first place.

As played competitively it's actually a highly complex game. I've seen poker players play it for hours for $1k a throw.

Well you were in the right place then, I guess. I was over the whole neon constant noise thing almost immediately. I love Vegas and all, but I love it for the drunk suckers. I guess all of the other artifice is just basically drunk sucker lure, so there's nothing to be done. I'd vastly prefer it if they could draw the same people to discreet air conditioned office buildings but cest la vie.

Hah. The guy I ran into (in the elevator cause what else are you going to talk about?) was basically a normal joe who saw a sign up sheet for a competition and figured "what the heck?". Next thing he knows, he's won the regional thingie, a decent pot and gets a free trip to vegas for the nationals.

I suspect that some people just *think* it's a highly complex game... ;)

Sure. But where would the fun be in that? I like to people-watch. I like chatting with random people in an environment where you really don't have to carry on a conversation with them if they turn out to be boring. Try doing that in your quiet office sometime. And hey. The entire environment in a vegas casino is designed to be disorienting. That's half the fun...

Do you ever go to the Gaslamp or the places in PB? Why do I have a feeling we've probably had a conversation before?

Not as often as I'd like, but I do have a number of friends who regularly frequent the various PB spots.

Hmmm let's see.....a couple of random hot girls ask to "party" with you and give you all sort of sexual inneuendo out of the blue.....in Vegas.

No, they're not pros, they just really liked your wobble.
