Day 18
Saturday December 26, 2015
Happy Boxing Day to my Canadian readers!
This morning started us out at Einstein Brothers for some quick food. Next up was another stop at the bank. I'm not liking all of these stops to the bank.
Our play today was at the D. The plan was to get Dee a card and have her turn in the $25 match play coupon for new members. She was also eligible for a promo for $5 free play for every 50 points earned up to $100.
We hit the 50¢ deuces machines and proceeded to get our asses kicked. We were feeding in bill after bill. It was one of the worst session of deuces I've ever played. I didn't hit any wild royals and Dee only hit 2 the whole time we played. Quints were also sparse. We finally hit the 10k we planned on doing and dropped a grand doing it. I just can't believe the lack of luck and lack of play we're getting this trip and it just won't turn.
We went to use Dee's match play and chose black on roulette. Red came up.
We got Dee's free play added to her card and ran it through a quarter 8/5 bonus machines with a progressive. She had some full houses and flushes and cashed it out at $105.
For a quick lunch we went to Coney Island Hot dogs and used a coupon for a free dog. The dogs are good but at $4 a pop they are just too expensive.
We came back here to the Rio and I dropped Dee off. She was going to read and chill and I was off to the Pinball Hall of Fame. This is always a good cheap afternoon of fun. The place was packed but there are so many machines you can still play. On the way back it took me 45 minutes to get back here. The New Year's Eve crowd is rolling in and the area around the strip is a zoo.
For dinner we went to The All American Bar and Grill again. I had a filet mignon tonight and Dee had the Chicken and pasta. The filet was excellent and melted in my mouth but it was a bit under cooked. I order filet rare because if they ever cook it it's still edible. Today it was a little less than rare. The doesn't bother me and I sure wasn't going to send it back and risk them destroying it.
This was Yahtzee Mike's last night in town so we said our good – byes and wrapped up another good time with him. We won't be seeing him again until next summer at the soonest.
We came back up to the room and started getting ready for tomorrow's move. We finished up with some TV and then bed.
