Day 1 ~ Vacation Day! Yippee!!! Flynn, Ollie, Jones, and their handlers were on the road a full 30 minutes before their anticipated departure time. This in itself was a miracle, considering Ollie had to pack for Jones, who stubbornly refused to do it for himself. The cat is a jerk. This first day of…
Lamenting the Losses of Las Vegas
Here is the question: What is the difference between the Wynn, Bellagio, and Aria? They are all very nice hotels, with pretty water features, but…. How about the Luxor, Paris, or Mandalay Bay? Each has location based décor, but…. But in reality, most LV casinos are the same. They have rooms, fancy restaurants, shopping, a…
Pi Day – a photo montage for George
Okay, this is not about poker. Sorry. This is about a man named George who thoroughly enjoys being a geek and celebrating Pi Day. His enthusiasm for this random day of the year is catching, and all in good fun Flynn & Ollie have joined in the festivities Here you go folks ~ punny pie…
Feeling the urge to write – topic?
The editor of the Chronicle is ready to create another very opinionated article. The question is what our faithful followers would like to read about. Frankly, this Covid crap has Flynn and Ollie’s day-to-day life as boring as watching people playing on-line poker ~ no travel, no poker, no noteworthy restaurant experiences to relay. So…
Quick Camping In Oregon
It has been a while since the Chronicle has written up a travel article – other than those related to Las Vegas & playing poker, of course. Lest you think Flynn and Ollie are total degens (only Flynn, not Ollie), here is proof they actually get out and ‘do stuff’. Their newest obsession is taking…
DNegs vs Polk & a Zamboni
Yes, the Chronicle spouts-off often about the glaring differences between Real (live) Poker and Not-Real (online Cozen) poker, and this article is no different. However, we are asking for legit clarification from anyone as to why Daniel Negreanu would ever agree to the heads-up challenge terms currently in play. Like him or not (we do);…
LV 1/21 ~ Ep #12 – Last Day
We here at the Chronicle realize this is two days late, but resuming normal life has been rather time consuming. If you have lost interest, we understand, but here goes anyway: Flynn awoke at the usual time on Thursay, had some awful coffee, packed up and checked out. He still had enough moolah on hand…
LV 1/21 ~ Episode 11
Golly, gee whiz. Not much to report of interest other than Flynn ended up sitting at the Aria for 8 hours or so, winning 5 hands (he kept track), and losing some more clams. If you want to read the blow-by-blow, follow the Twitter account, cause he was so bored & frustrated, he began tweeting…
LV 1/21 ~ Episode 10
Tuesday, the slowest day on the strip and in the poker rooms. There was no hurry to get out and get going because there were no games, except a few outlying places like South Point and the dreaded Orleans. Not in the mood to saddle up the horse, he just wandered over to the Aria…
LV 1/21 ~ Episode 9
Monday, after wild-card weekend in Las Vegas during a pandemic. One would think the place would be dead. Nope. There are still tourists here, gawking and taking selfies. Here is the glorious part: there are not very many of them. Flynn saw the Bellagio fountains from the rail, with no one within 50 feet from…
