Bellagio Poker: Both Flynn and Ollie decided to swing by the Bellagio room to see how the 1/3 games were looking. The appearance was about the same as the playing experience ~ discombobulated. The Bellagio was in the midst of replacing the carpet (not downsizing), so they had ¾ of the room shoved to ¼…
Drunk Poker MUG Oct 2019
Well, boys and girls, we here at the Chronicle would like to tell you all about Drunk Poker at the Mirage, but frankly most of our memories have been wiped clean. Obviously a sign that it was a either a smashing success, or an epic failure. Since we didn’t have to post bail, we are…
Just Poker in Las Vegas
After playing tour-guide for 3 days, Flynn was on his own. There were four poker sessions in a day and a half, and it was awesome. Well, mostly awesome. Here goes: Room #1 Harrah’s Poker Room ~ Not a good experience. The first afternoon was spent at the Harrah’s poker room. As usual, we at…
Flynn as a Tourist in LV
Thirty-six hours in the poker mecca that is Las Vegas, Flynn himself has not played a single full session. One does wonder, is this a good thing? Instead, Flynn has been playing tourist host, as those who follow @FlynnandO on Twitter may already know. Flynn went to the to the Siegfried and Roy Park, which…
Muckleshoot Poker Trip Report
A few days ago Flynn and Ollie found themselves at the Muckleshoot Casino, in the temporary poker room. This in itself is an oddity, as the last time they were there the experience was not the best ~ very smokey, had to walk to the main cashier cage to get and cash out chips, disgruntled…
Postle @ Stones Controversy
As always, we here at the Chronicle like to weigh in on the current poker drama. Our topics almost always originate from Twitter, and we may or may not do some follow-up research on other mediums. Well, this topic is a doozy. Did Postle cheat while playing on live streams at Stones Poker? Clips have…
WPT Tournament Debate: To Chop or not to Chop?
Since the Chronicle likes to chime in on all things poker-controversy, here goes: No chops. If the game of poker is to be considered skill and talent, then just stop the chop already. Otherwise, gee, let the Patriots and name-your-opposing-team declare themselves both winners of the Super Bowl. They can play sudden death for the…
More Pokering: To Fortune Poker We Went
In addition to having a short, losing, session at Palace/Chips in Lakewood this past week, Flynn and Ollie also had spring rolls and bar-b-que’d pork at the casino. They were excellent, and cheap. The poker ~ meh, not so good. Flynn played 4/8 limit, and slowly lost. Then Flynn switched to O/8, and quickly lost…
Venetian Poker Room ~ Tournament $ Debate
I almost titled this “Tournament $ Snivelers “, primarily because there has not been much posted on Twitter in favor of the structure for the V’s Lucky Shot Poker Series and Drawing. As the poker Twitter world is wont to do, much drama and name calling ensues, while very little balance is brought to the…
Palace Casino Trip Review
It has been two months since we have set foot in a poker room. Not for any particular reason, other than general life stuff was happening. So, when the opportunity arose for a quick session, the decision had to be made again as to where we were going to perch. This is always a dilemma…
