Las Vegas trip report - Goodbye Bally's (12/14 - 12/22) (1 Viewer)

[Thomacetti]

Another trip reports from your Belgian brother… Vegas baby

This trip we say goodbye to Bally’s and Mike @slisk250 & Rufus @BootySnatcher will be joining me for the first part.

Planning on playing the WPT mystery bounty at Wynn and plenty of chip harvesting, meeting new people and grinding the cash games.

Just left my home and on my way to the airport. Good times…join me on another degen trip and buckle up

Ps. London HT informed me that my flight to Vegas is delayed with 1h… ata 20.00 hours local time

Good luck

 

[CDC]

Enjoy!

Ive got a taste of poker again and meetups now, so im very jealous.

Good luck and I hope you have a great trip. Say hi to @BootySnatcher for me. I really enjoyed meeting him and especially watching him react to the accidental inhalation @Boother36s intestinal expulsions.

 

[Irish]

Safe travels and run good Thomas!

 

[Thomacetti]

Arrived at BRU…London in 90 min

Thanks for all the good wishes fellas

It was quite a moment. A change of undies was definitely warranted

 

[GetUrShineBox]

[Eriks]

Gross. At least they’re Paulsons I guess.

 

[bernielomax]

I like the spot pattern on the $5's. I wonder what those $5's would look like with a better inlay.

IMO that’s the worst edges in history on that $5!

Bring back the BallyS and I barely liked thosen

Well at least we both like Crystal Park chips!

200x$1, please.

$25s and above would get nabbed by the fistful in a Chiproom sale. $1s and $5s have more questionable qualities.

I think casinos are starting to make chips with the fear of harvesters in mind.

 

[jr8719]

Yes, we all wish they were THCs, but as $1s go, I like them. Would make good frac relabel candidates with that spot pattern.

 

[mike32]

The 3/2 unbalanced spots on the $25 are tough to take. Casino probably trying to increase profits by putting players on tilt with non-ocd friendly chips!

Sorry, but the spots on that $25 are ridiculously bad. Tilting even.

 

[slisk250]

The cage asked me what I thought. I said the only way they could be worse is if they were Ceramic. I said the person responsible should be fired. I won’t waste time even getting a sample set, hate RHC chips. At least I knew 2 days early and put everything into harvesting Ballys in place of saving cash for the new chips. RIP to the last textured shaped inlaid 5 in Vegas.
