Tuesday, the 12th of October was designated ‘fancy food day’ for Flynn and Ollie.

LV Trip Oct 2021 – Crush the Enemy
Monday, Day 2: We will get to the title shortly. Since this is the Chronicle, we must do this in chronological order. (The eds are a little OCD).

Day 1, arrival day – a Sunday (10/10). Flynn and Ollie had spent 4 days and 3 nights on the road before hitting Sin City at 2 in the afternoon. Is it wise to play poker after a long drive day, strung out and tired? Naw. F&O friend Luke herded the cats, and they agreed…

LV Trip Report – Day 8 Thurs
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…
