Had a quick 2 hour trip after work today.

My $55 in free play did some spins on monopoly and got it to $462 in about 2 minutes. SHOULD have left but I was jonesing for some craps.

Took that TITO to bubble crapless and lost it in 2 minutes.

Put $500 in - go across after point is established hoping for a 2 hit then regress but go PSO.

Head to the only table open - crapless - and buy in for $2k.

Low water mark at table was $1655. Generally go $235 across $10 pass line and $100 odds.

Great shooter managed to hit a ton of 6s - press collect press up to $300, 10s and 4s got up to $150 pressing $25 each 4/10 when one hit.

My first two rolls myself were horrendous. My final roll was a 3 away from make them all - still not very good only had a repeating 9 and 6.

High water mark at table was a little over $4k.

I left the table with $3k.

Table session +$1000
Trip session $500

Starting to notice a vibe back at Hollywood of a bunch of sour pusses who can’t roll themselves but always critique everyone else’s rolls by the time they 7 out. And they are generally only betting $12 on 6/8 and just griping and mad at life.

It’s just a game guys… lol. We can’t ALWAYS win. If you start feeling that way, leave come back another time or ride out the storm until the dice are hot

Made the drive to Shelbyville - hour and a half away - this morning to do some general gambling, tier credit earning for my “free” rooms next Vegas trip.

It was a shitshow with the casino coolering me before I even gambled. My player card was locked out, was told to go to cashier cage - from the Rewards desk agent to update my address. Didn’t make much sense that she couldn’t do that. Get over there and someone with a suit comes down - gaming agent or whatever.

I’m assuming they thought I was laundering money - I guess it’s a problem for the casino when you actually win several trips in a row for thousands, never had an issue when I was consistently losing. 😂

Anyways got that issue settled. And I lost $400 on the bubble immediately. Piss away another $2k between that and some video poker. Go back to bubble and make some back then head to the actual craps table and buy in for $1k and cash out $2.1k.

Did some more slot play and break dead even before I head back to the craps table.

Buy in for $2k. One shooter went on an absolute tear. Notes of interest - I pressed my 4/10 up to $200 each and 5/9 to $400 each.

Hit multiple multiple times. The shooter rolled the talls and almost hit the talls again before he finally 7 out.

Up huge. My roll - go $50 each on extremes, $100 4/5/9/10 and $120 on the 8. The lovely point seven out.

Decided to call it.

$2k in $5,050 out.

Stopped by Hard Rock today. Started at hybrid craps , no one including myself could make a point or roll more than 4 or 5 numbers. Quickly lost $800

I browsed the only table they had open and it was packed - with no one overly excited. Decided to stop and kill time at bubble craps before I hop on the table. $200 in on regular bubble - did $50 each on the outsides. Got a few hits to triple up before regressed and began pressing again. Cashed out $1000.

Took my TITO over the crapless craps and went on an absolute tear. Hit the smalls once. Next session was a 2/12 away from the alls during the run up was getting multiple force prints.

I condensed my tickets and had a 2937 ticket and a 1048 ticket. Took the 1048 ticket and basically did $3/$4 a number and a couple bucks each ATS.

Notes of interest - immediately hit back to back 12s then a 2. Went on full geek pressing and never went below the $1000 mark on the ticket. Machine cooperated and we went on a killer roll with lots of repeaters. AND I hit the ATS. Sadly - only a few dollars on it. However, the $1048 ticket after force prints I turned it into $4800.

It happened super super quick.

Went to high limit room and did some $50 dollar spins and got nowhere.

Left the casino netting $5200

Good prep work until I head back to Vegas in 3 weeks

$11425 out.

Brought 1 orange chip to the table leftover from a blackjack table. Exchanged chips midroll on another shooter and did $440 inside. 7 out. That’s what I get.

Lay down $3900 to get some more chips. Played for about 2 hours. Mostly uneventful and got down to about $2000 until 1 shooter threw a ton of 4s. Started with $50 on it and pressed to $400 collecting on the way.

My third roll - hit the smalls and pressed my 8 all the way to $1800. Started it with $90. Partial presses along the way. $300-$450$600-$900 1200 to $1500 and $1800.

Strange enough I was a 9 away from the tall and all. Hit the 12 3-4 x during my roll. This was a crapless table

I posted the first part of my trip to Vegas staying on Bellagio on Friday.

It was a rollercoaster of a ride and I ended my trip with a huge win which I will get to.

I wish I too detailed notes - but will recap. I ended up staying up til 8pm on Friday before I called it. This was about 40 hours straight of being awake for me with the time zone difference.

I’ll say most of Friday was good - until it wasn’t it. I started a around $2k to the positive in early afternoon casino walk about in which I stopped at Caesars, Harrah’s, Venetian, Linq, Flamingo, Cromwell and back to Bellagio.

By the time I got back to Bellagio, couldn’t get anything going there and didn’t feel very lucky. Tried to switch it up to blackjack - and when I say I lost every hand, it sure felt that way for multiple shoes. As soon as I would find a open table - and mind you most of the 3/2 tables were $100 a hand, someone else would sit down immediately and then another and so on by the time I was exchanging cash for chips. And guys would come in mid shoe buy in for one hand.

Finally decide to call it a night down around 75% of my starting bankroll. Brought $10k had around 2.5-3k left.

Saturday get here and decide for some light gambling after breakfast. Squeak out a win at Aria on stadium craps thanks to the A/T/S bonus - then give most of that back at the table thanks to about 5 straight shooters including myself.

Head back to Bellagio to get ready for Sick New World - get there pretty late but in time to see a few bands on the main stage. I stay for the first song Korn played then dipped out as my body was killing me.

Walked to Sahara to take the monorail back close to home base. I get off at Ballys and buy in for the walking around money I brought with me to concert - $500. Ifs only $15 minimum but I lose my buy in and decide to head back to Bellagio.

It’s around midnight - head to the room and do some final accounting. Got $6k - so not down terribly compared to earlier. Decide to play one more table before wrap the trip up.

I head to the only $50 table(They had two $50 tables, a $100 and a $300 one) that had room and buy in for $2500. Only placing the 6/8 and pass line with max odds. First shooter rolls a few numbers before he’s out and the dice get to me around 1220am.

I go 10/20/20 on the ATS. 90 on 6/8, 100 4, 75 on 5 and 9 with the first point being 10.

I’m literally just trying to not hemorrhage any more money and don’t do anything crazy my first few rolls of the dice - just collecting mostly and partial presses. Then I’m realizing I keep smacking the 6 and 10 and I was a 2 away from the smalls. I hit the smalls!

By this time the table is getting pumped and I’m starting to feel reenergized. And I’m just a 12 away from the All/Tall.

I continue rolling and start increasing my bets - at one point I have $250 on 4/10, 300 4/9 and 600 on the 6/8. Once I smacked a few of those I pressed my 6 up to $900 while the point was 8 with $250 odds behind the passline. I’m rolling so many 6s I get it up to $2100 on the place bet by the time I hit the point.

Next come out roll point becomes 6 I move my place bet money from the 6 to the 8 and reduce it to $600. And of course I made the 6 again with only $250 in odds.

Next come out roll - I roll a 12 for the ALL and the table erupts, dealers erupt, guys at the table over come looking.

I had so many chips in my rack - green, black, purple, yellow. My previous accounting midway through had me around 10k in chips. By the time it was all said and done - I cashed out for $19,740 off the $2500 buy in. I was tipping during roll with a passline bet for dealers and odds for them as well as giving them chips to bet out for themselves. Tipped an additional $240 before taking my chips back to the room to snag a photo.

This is by far my BIGGEST single win ever. I didnt quite know how to process it after my roll was done but I got off the table at around 1am - quasi math I held the dice for around 50 minutes. This also included multiple stickmen changes and two casino fills to replenish chips.

Just had 8 hours left in Vegas until flight - decided to cash the chips in at the high limit slot room cashier cage and inquired about a check. Took the check to lock it in.

Not quite sure when I’ll get back out to Vegas, but I’m a semi regular in Cincinnati where I’m sure I’ll be back sooner rather than later back to my original lower buy ins $4-800.

This trip concluded a multiple week winning session locally that allowed me to player higher than I usually do.

See you all at the tables.
