If Flynn had any idea whatsoever of the time, he would tell you that he jumped out of bed bright and early to hit the M&M store. Half is true. Flynn and Ollie hit the store, but not before noon. This time there was no line out the door, although there was one at the…
Day 7 LV Trip report – Wednesday
Ollie headed off to the Orleans to play 8/16 O8. Flynn refuses to play there, and opted to take a walk prior to hitting the tables near home. Wednesday was the coolest day predicted during the entire trip so he took full advantage of the ‘cool’ temps. A few observations: To those who says ‘Vegas…
Day 6 – Tuesday LV Trip report
There is not a whole lot to report this day from the city of Las Vegas. Okay, you caught it, F&O really spent their time in the Paradise casinos instead. First stop in the (late) morning was the stroll to the Bellagio to start a new 2/5 game. Flynn just hung out and did his…
LV Trip report Day 5 – Monday
Up and at ’em before noon. Flynn meandered over to the Bellagio bright and early (11 am) to feel out the list for 2/5 (gulp) as he was feeling frustrated by the no-fold-em hold-em that was the norm in 1/3. It was time to move up for sure and dip the toes in the deeper…
LV Trip Report, Sunday – day 4
Since arriving in LV, F&O had been staying at the South Point. This day was moving day, so F&O forced themselves to get packed up and schlep all their stuff to Vdara. As they had about 6 bags of stuff, this is a logistics problem relating to check-out times vs check in times, and the…
LV Trip report Day 3 – Saturday
Saturday is the busiest day of the week in LV, which means strategizing one’s plans either well in advance, or punting. Flynn and Ollie opted to punt. They didn’t emerge from their lair until after the noon hour (see, adapting nicely to LV time) and they needed sustenance. There was no way they were going…
LV Trip Report Day 2 – Friday
Bleck. To summarize the day, Flynn lost $ both places he played. First at PH, and second at Bellagio. Flynn knows this is normal, as poker is a fickle mistress. However, if this keeps up, he will be busted in 3 days and have to spend all his time holed up in his room watching…
Getting to Vegas, Day 1 round-up
Made it to the Bay Area – spent time with family and (naturally) doing envy passes on the SF Bay in front of Pier 39 for all the tourists on the Quixote sailing ship. While F&O had just done the same thing last month, and had originally intended another route this trip, it turns out…
What day is it and where are F&O?
Okay, here is a quick update for our loyal readers: In Reno/Sparks, NV, all powered up with plenty of G, Flynn and Ollie began thinking about the logistics of step 2 of their trip – off to Coarsegold to visit family and friends, go on a dinner train ride, try a SUP for the first…
The next 3 days- RV life
Okay, where to begin? Flynn the slacker is woefully behind on this trip report, so will be throwing all the past 48 + hours at the wall to see where it all sticks. First and foremost, the drive from Lassen to South Lake Tahoe was unremarkable. One quick stop for lunch at Bordertown (ulterior motive…
