    I'll try my hardest. My only goal is to not come back with $0. I just need one good 10-15 min stretch at a blackjack table to make my whole trip.

    That's the spirit! :lol: Just remember if you're losing bet more to win it back quicker.

    That's some good advice. My betting patterns drastically change the later it gets in the day. For some reason, I always seem to do well around the 3-5am timeframe when I can barely sit up at the blackjack table.

    Fortunately there were no arrests. There were a lot of strippers and no broken bones that I am aware of. I lost my ass at the blackjack tables. Hit a couple of big sports bets that really saved my trip or else the wedding might have been called off when I told my fiance how much I lost.

    The flight home yesterday was one of the worst experiences of my life. I really thought I was going to die. It turns out that puking in an airplane bathroom isn't an enjoyable experience.

    All in all, a damn good time. Not too often you can get 15-20 of your closest friends/family together like that. I think I am limiting my Vegas trips to 2 nights from now on.....at least for the all dudes trips

    Oh man, it was fucking awful....that was a first for me. I very rarely puke from drinking which made it so much worse. I also puked in the airport bathroom in Vegas before boarding the plane....the rest of the people in the bathroom were all laughing. I'm glad someone enjoyed it.

    Puking in the airport bathroom. I'd say overall that's a win. :lol: Where did you stay?

    I actually puked in the Vegas and Chicago airport bathrooms and on the plane in between. It was painful.

    We stayed at the Flamingo.

    Flamingo is great. It's not crazy expensive and it has a perfect location right in the middle of the strip.

    Yeah, it's a solid place. They have a great pool too that isn't outrageously expensive like some of the other pools. We were at the Venus pool at Ceasar's and prices were insane.
