Las Vegas Craps stories (forgot to post from my Dec trip)
Story one - This story happens at South Point Casino, just a few miles south of Mandalay Bay. Locals place. $5 tables (almost always). They had 4 tables open, 3 were 5 and 1 was 10. I was on the 5 dollar tables, left of stick. The dice were straight out on the other side of the table. Old guy, 70s or later was in the middle of a decent roll. An older Asian guy walks up beside him, drops 5 $100 bills before they could send the dice to the shooter. Guy says "All of it on the field". The table kinda glares at the guy. The dealer across from me says "Just look straight forward, don't look around. Everything will be fine". They put 5 black chips in the field. Shooter rolls a 3. Nobody gets hurt since a point is established (I feel likt the point was 9, but I don't remember). Field guy picks up $500 and leaves $500. Says to the shooter "Do it again". Shooter rolls a 4. Asian guy throws a black in, asks for change. Dealer gives the guy 4 green chips. The field guy tosses the shooter a green chip and leaves with $1475 and doesn't tip the dealers. Dealers grumble, we all look around and continue with the point. That's a lot of action for a $5 table. I just shrugged. Story two - Bally's. $10 table. Their tables has the repeater bets. There are 3 of us on the table, mostly playing 3 numbers or a few come bets. Guy buys in for 2K, just wants green. Puts $50 on the line, $25 on the 6 repeater and $5 on the 6 repeater for the dealers. He also put $25 on the 3 and 11 repeater. I get the dice. I'm having a pretty decent roll. I hit 5 6's, so I need one more 6 to hit that repeater bet. All of the sudden everyone is betting the hard six, pressing their six etc. Money is all over the place. I had my 6 at $60 if I remember correctly. I hit the 6 on the next roll. The dude jumped up and down, came down to me and I thought he was going to hug me during the pandemic. Instead I get an elbow dab. He makes (if I did the math right 25*90) $2250 and the dealers got $450 (to which they thanks the shooter and myself). I think I hit a few more numbers and 7ed out. I was down pretty low on my $200 buyin before the roll and left with $350 or so. That was fun, crazy and scary all at the same time. Story three - Jerry's Nugget (N. Las Vegas, just a few miles north of El Cortez). $3 table. It's full. At the far end is a dude (with face tattoos) and his friend. Things were going smoothly. Table was luke warm. Shooter would hit 1 point and 7 out. No really good rolls. Guy beside me is shooting and hits a point. The face tattoo guy quickly makes a passline bet with odds (which he didn't have) as the dealer is paying people. The dealer notices and starts yelling at the guy "We don't pull that shit here. You do that again and you will be on your ass outside. Don't cheat at our casino". Box guy comes over, warns the guy. EVERYONE decides it's time to color up. The face guy's friend tells him to knock it off. Don't be an asshole. I got to Jerry's a few times each trip and haven't seen this before. Story four (and final story). - Binions, downtown. $5 table. Nothing too special to talk about. The girls aren't in their cowboy outfits, instead have referee jerseys on. Still they look pretty good. Guy walks in and starts chatting with the stick girl. Decides to buy in beside her for 4K. $4000 on a $5 table. Playing all greens, being a big tough guy and flirting with the stick girl. I'm always nervous seeing that much money out on a $5 table, glad I wasn't rolling. A few bad rolls wipes him out and he leaves. He was power pressing and trying to make a big score. No dice!
If you are reporting about a casino, could you please try to include the following:
Name of the casino
Where it's located
What time of day and is it a weekday or weekend?
Max odds
Field pays
Side bets available (Repeater, ATS, Firebet)
Are there dividers or how many are shooting per side
The more information we have, the better off we will be. We all know that tables can change rapidly. I saw a table go from 25 to 15 to 100 at the Flamingo in the course of a few hours. I'll try to keep the mins what is reported the most and add other information in the comments like "found this table at $5 on graveyard shift" so people konw that isn't the norm These tables can be a pain to maintain, so please provide as much information as possible. An informed roller is a beter roller.

You have to have at least a $20 bet for every throw to "hold your spot"
It was getting really tedious to edit a post with over 100 casinos in it. So I'm breaking it up to Nevada casinos and non-Nevada casinos. If you are reporting about a casino, could you please try to include the following:
Name of the casino
Where it's located
What time of day and is it a weekday or weekend?
Max odds
Field pays

Are there dividers or how many are shooting per side

MegaSlot Casino No Deposit Bonus Open your account at MEGASLOT Casino and get 20 exclusive free spins - no deposit required! In addition, enjoy a 100% free bonus and 100 free spins on the first deposit. Use special bonus codes from the promotional website! >>Claim Exclusive Welcome Bonus<<
Layout and Navigation
The main page is pretty standard with all important tabs placed right at the top or at the bottom. The designers have gone the extra mile to make sure the games are found exactly in the category they belong to and players have no issues finding the information they are looking for.
Match Deposit Bonus of up to €100 + 100 Free Spins upon Sign Up
The casino greets newcomers with a 100% match deposit bonus of up to €100 + 100 free spins on selected slots. The qualifying deposit is €20. To release your bonus funds, you need to meet a 40x (bonus funds + winnings from the free spins) wagering requirement. Frankly, we have seen more tempting welcome bonus offers but the bonus for existing players seems more attractive. You can get a 55% match deposit bonus of up to €300 on Fridays. According to the bonus terms, it comes with a 40x (bonus funds + free spins winnings) wagering attached, although we did not see free spins offered here. There is also a VIP program where every deposit you make takes you one step closer to the sweet incentives you get when you level up. >>Claim Exclusive Welcome Bonus<<
Game Selection
According to preliminary information, the casino was supposed to have a game library hosting more than 6000 titles. Well, at the time of writing, the game library is a far cry from being that huge, but we are carrying out this review mere days after the launch, so new titles will probably be added until the target is met 🙂 The casino name might be called Megaslot, but it offers not only slots but also table games, live casino games, and jackpot games. Sadly, none of the games is playable in practice mode unless you have an account.
Game Suppliers
The casino works with a great number of game suppliers including Microgaming, NetEnt, Betsoft, Play’n GO, Quickspin, Yggdrasil Gaming, Thunderkick, Amatic Industries, EGT Interactive, Elk Studios, Endorphina, Quickfire, Pragmatic Play, Booming Games, Wazdan, Novomatic, Big Time Gaming, Fugaso, Hacksaw Gaming, Kalamba Games, Nolimit City, Pocket Games Soft, Playtech, Push Gaming, Red Tiger Gaming, Relax Gaming, Sthlm Gaming, True Lab, Lightning Box, NextGen Gaming, Evolution Gaming, 1x2Games, Bally, Barcrest Games, Iron Dog Studios, Red7 Mobile, SG Gaming, Shuffle Master, WMS, 2 By 2 Gaming, Just For The Win. >>Claim Exclusive Welcome Bonus<<
Deposits and Withdrawals
MegaSlot casino accepts the following deposit methods: EcoPayz, MasterCard, Neteller, Paysafe Card, instaDebit, Visa, iDEAL, Sofortuberweisung, Neosurf, QIWI, Trustly, Skrill, Yandex Money, iDebit, Zimpler, Rapid Transfer The minimum deposit depends on the payment method chosen but it is in the range of €10-€15 for most. Withdrawals are processed to the same payment method you used for depositing but if that’s not possible, you have to choose one of the following: MasterCard, Neteller, InstaDebit, Visa, EcoPayz, QIWI, Skrill, Trustly, Yandex Money, iDebit, Rapid Transfer, Bank Wire Transfer. The minimum amount you can cash out at once is €20. That would have been great if it wasn’t for the 3x deposit turnover requirement you have to clear before you are allowed to place a withdrawal request. If we assume that you deposit €20, you have to make €60 bets before you can cash out the amount you end up with. That turnover requirement is a bit high, compared to the 1x turnover most casinos require.
Security and Licensing
Megaslot casino is owned and operated by N1 Interactive Ltd. The latter is a MGA licensee meaning that it has gone through rigorous checking procedures prior to being awarded a license. Sadly, the MGA license does not allow the casino to serve UK players, so no wonder it acquires the UKGC license before long. >>Claim Exclusive Welcome Bonus<<
Customer Support
The most convenient means of communication seems to be the live chat, but you can also send an email and expect the customer care agents to get back to you shortly.
Mobile Casino
The games run well on mobiles, but unfortunately, you cannot test them unless you have an account. On the more positive side, you should not have any issues playing on the go as long as you have a sufficient mobile data plan or connect your device to a strong WiFi signal. >>Claim Exclusive Welcome Bonus<<

It was getting really tedious to edit a post with over 100 casinos in it. So I'm breaking it up to Nevada casinos and non-Nevada casinos. On a side note, heading to Vegas on Thursday. I'll try to write a trip report and update the minimums as I can. I'm there 9 days and We will be hitting more than 10 casinos, so I expect to be busy. Without further ado: Last update: 9/29

5GringosCasino Review
5Gringos is a new casino or better yet, a fruity world where new players can enjoy an immense number of slots and table games and choose the welcome bonus package that fits them best. All that looks great on paper. The eye-catchy theme, the large game library, and tempting bonus offers are exactly what players require to open an account at a new casino. However, we noticed some red flags and we consider it relevant to inform you about them.
Layout and Navigation
5Gringos has a lively design that adds to the cheerful atmosphere. The fruit symbols hint at the silly fun you are about to experience. The layout itself is pretty standard. The top of the main page hosts the Games and Promotions tabs. If you scroll down, you will be provided with a glimpse at the available games and payment methods. To gain full access to the game library, you need to open an account. Shrewd, yet irritating way to attract new players.
7 Welcome Bonus Packages to Choose From
When it comes to bonuses, most casinos have adopted the “one size fits it all” approach and players have no other choice but to claim whatever is up for grabs. 5Gringos casino provides players with the chance to choose a fruit upon registration. Each fruit has a bonus attached to it. The strawberry gives you cashback on live casino games; the lemon comes with a 50% match deposit bonus offer; the cherries grant you a 100% match deposit bonus + free spins; the watermelon gives you 1 free spin per every €1 deposited, etc. Choose wisely, as the bonuses come with different wagering requirements. The minimum deposited required to claim the bonuses are also a bit high. For example, if the raspberry is your fruit of choice, you will have to deposit at least €50 at once to claim the cashback. If you choose the 200% match deposit bonus, you have to clear a 50x (deposit + bonus) wagering requirement, which is way out of line. To cut a long story short, choose carefully your bonus and read the bonus terms twice as carefully to avoid disappointments. >>Get Exclusive Free Bonus Now<<
Game Selection
5Gringos Casino has an impressive game selection, hands down. It does not matter if you are a slots fan or you prefer Blackjack or Baccarat, 5Gringos got you covered. You can try the games in demo mode and then switch to real money mode if you feel like it. Needless to say, these options are available only for registered customers. The live casino offers some of the most common variations of roulette, blackjack, baccarat, and poker. Monopoly and Dream Catcher are also among the available titles.
Game Suppliers
5Gringos Casino lends its games from BF Games, 1×2, Leap, Playson, Iron Dog, Merkur, Bally, Wulff, Gamomat, Evolution, Red Tiger, Play’n GO, Nolimit, Red Rake, Casino Technology, SA Gaming, Booongo, Igrosoft, Yggdrasil, Pragmatic Play, ezugi, Pariplay, Quickspin, Push Gaming, Microgaming, Endorphina, Gameart, Elk, Spinomenal, Wazdan, Relax, Betsoft.
Deposits and Withdrawals
5Gringos Casino accepts payments via Visa, Mastercard, bank transfer, Interac, bitcoin, EcoPayz, Trustly, Klarna, Kiwi, EPS, Litecoin, Neosurf, Ripple, Ethereum, Skrill, Neteller, Paysafe. The minimum deposit is €20 (unless you want to claim a bonus that requires a higher deposit). The minimum withdrawal depends on your VIP status. Level 1 players can withdraw €500 per transaction and up to €10,000 per month. As you climb the VIP ladder, the withdrawal limits are increased. Please note that your deposit is subject to 1x rollover before a withdrawal request is made. If you break that “rule”, the casino charges you a fee amounting to 10% of the amount you would like to withdraw. >>Get Exclusive Free Bonus Now<<
Security and Licensing
5Gringos Casino is owned by the Cyprus-based Tranello Group of Companies, and Araxio Development N.V. The latter holds a Curacao license and 5Gringos casino operates under a license number 8048/JAZ.
Customer Support
5Gringos Casino customers can get in touch with the customer support via live chat, phone or email 24/7.
Mobile Casino
Contemporary casino games are developed in HTML format, which makes them playable across desktop and mobile devices. There is no need to download special software. The 5Gringos casino games can be loaded directly in your mobile browser. >>Get Exclusive Free Bonus Now<<

Full Review
Casino Friday is the new kid on the block, and right away, you can see that the kid has massive potential. Owned by 1UP Entertainment, this brand-new platform offers plenty of great casino games and live casino titles from leading online developers such as NetEnt and Evolution. Moreover, it boasts a cutting-edge exploration engine that allows players to find the games they want in a matter of seconds. Using this technology, players can sort games by their titles, bonuses, providers, mechanics, and more. Apart from a vast game portfolio, tremendous underlying technology, and smooth experience, Casino Friday offers a lucrative loyalty bonus, as well as a plethora of trusted payment methods for players around the world including Canadian and Finnish casino players.
Casino Friday Bonuses and Promotions
The casino offers a welcome deposit bonus for newcomers who can receive 100% bonuses on their first deposit up to $500. To make the offer more lucrative, the casino team decided to toss in some free spins for new customers. Newcomers will have an opportunity to win a total of 200 free spins when they deposit for the first time. To trigger the bonus, you need to deposit at least $20. As soon as you start playing the games, you’ll start the wagering requirements count and have 30 days to meet them. In other words, the bonus will expire after a month. The maximum amount you’re allowed to bet using bonus money is $5. To start spending the bonus amount, you’ll first have to play with your real money. Skrill, Neteller, and Paysafecard are not included in the promotion, meaning you’ll not be able to claim the deposit bonus if you deposit using one of the three payment methods. The wagering requirements are 40x for the bonus amount, and 30x for the free spins. Not all games contribute the same to the requirements. Only slots contribute 100%, and live wheel games 50%. All other table games, video poker, and live casino games do not contribute to the requirements, which is the only disadvantage we’ve been able to find about Casino Friday. Moreover, some slots are also banned from bonus money usage, so please read the terms and conditions for the welcome bonus before collecting it to find out more about them. >>Click Here For Exclusive Bonus<<
Casino Friday Free Spins
Free spins are the second part of the welcome deposit bonus. Players will receive a total of 200 free spins over ten days, meaning you’ll get 20 free spins every day. Every batch of spins is available for a specific online slot, so let’s take a look at the titles you can play using this bonus.
Day 1 – 20 spins for Gonzo’s Quest Megaways
Day 2 – 20 spins for John Hunter and the Book of Tut

Day 10 – 20 spins for Jammin’ Jars
Each batch of free spins is available for 24 hours, so make sure to use them as soon as you receive them. You’ll be awarded each set at 00:01 every day. Finally, the wagering requirements are 30x for free spins. >>Click Here For Exclusive Bonus<<
How Do I Collect Free Spins in the Casino?
Free spins are part of the welcome bonus, so the only way to collect them is to open an account at Casino Friday and make a deposit. If you do everything right, you’ll see the first batch of 20 free spins available in your account, and you can start spinning the reels right away.

Conclusion
To sum up, Casino Friday is a great new casino that offers plenty of entertaining titles from industry-leading providers. On top of that, players have an opportunity to claim a hefty welcome bonus that also includes 200 free spins (in batches of 20 for ten days on ten different games). We couldn’t really find any downsides to this casino. If we were to nitpick, we’d have to say that the only thing that we didn’t like was the disproportionate contribution to wagering requirements, as no other games besides slots and live wheel games contribute. Other than that, everything is perfect in this new gambling site, which poses a serious threat to industry-leading sites. >>Click Here For Exclusive Bonus<<

Part 3 in the COVID series. To try and make this list more helpful, I have added Weekend Day and Weekend Night, as those can be vastly different than during the week. I'm trying to monitor Twitter and the Vegas Message Board to get some additional information. Keep sharing all that wonderful goodness. I'd like to update the wiki to talk about what sidebets casinos have, so if you know that info, I can add it to the table comments.

A Vegas Miracle - how I won $129,000 in my 3rd tournament ever
This is how I won $129,000 in my 3rd ever poker tournament. Note: don't try this, it probably won't turn out well for you. I spent about 6 months grinding up a $5,000 bankroll playing home/casino games ranging from .5/1 to 1/3. The week that I hit that $5,000 mark, Matt, one of my best friends from college informed me that his job had placed him in Las Vegas for the next month and that I could crash with him for a few nights if I wanted to come on out west. I had frequent flyer miles for the flight and some Mlife/Fremont hotel comps for the rest of the trip. My grand total for flight and lodging for 10 days came to $200. Now, I’m not going to bore you guys with low-level cash hand histories. The next 10 days were filled with me playing lowstakes poker for 10-12 hours a day. It’s as fun as it sounds – it’s not. I was having a good time in Vegas otherwise – but towards the end of the trip I had a realization: 1/2’s the same everywhere. I didn’t have to fly out to the desert to raise to $7 preflop. After 10 days, my grand total from poker (and a fair amount of dumb degenerate shit on Fremont) was -$186. That wasn’t what I came out to do — I knew that I was a better player than my recent results had indicated. The morning of my return flight, I decided I was going to play tournaments until I either busted my $5,000 bankroll or hit something worthwhile. I impulsively decided to not get on my plane at 11:30am. Checkout time from Luxor was at 11:00 – and I didn’t know where I was going yet. I had 30 minutes to pack up my stuff and figure out where I was going before they’d charge me a fee. I sorted TripAdvisor by cheapest first – I’ve stayed in crappy hostels/motels before and overall am a very low maintenance person. I figured that by staying somewhere for $20 a night, I’d be able to maximize the amount of shots I could take before flying back home. I accepted that there was a real chance I’d go back broke – but I didn’t really care. If I didn’t take my shot now, then when? I booked the cheapest bed in Vegas - a 6-person shared hostel just past the Stratosphere. Let's just say you get what you pay for — it was not a happy place. A fair amount of the people in there were bordering on homelessness and there was barbed wire surrounding their outdoor gym. In addition to this, I had the constant stress of knowing that all that separated my bankroll from the rest of my roommates was a tiny lock. I took the Deuce to the strip, lived off food comps, and turned down invites from my friends to hang out. I was in town to play poker, nothing else. Disclaimer: I had never played tournaments prior to heading out to Vegas. My only knowledge of hand ranges was from watching televised events. I downloaded a free Nash chart app on my phone while on the Deuce to the strip and studied it for 5 minutes – whatever, I get the jist of it. Let’s play some cards. The first day of doing this I played the $140 daily at the Aria. Top 13 spots paid -- I finished in 15th. It was depressing to say the least — I felt as if I was at rock bottom. Before the first night of sleeping at the hostel I called the airline to see if I could get on the flight that I had deliberately missed the day prior. I couldn't. I made it my goal to at least cash something so that I could get a decent hotel room. I couldn’t have slept more than 2-3 hours the first night there. One of my roommates was loudly vomiting all night, the sheets itched, and I was going through an existential crisis... like dude, you’ve got a finance degree and you’re really doing this shit? While on the bus to the strip, I opened Poker Atlas and saw that there was a $200 satellite to win a seat into the $1,600 Venetian main event. I decided that I was going to go take a shot at that. I was at risk twice in the satellite but after studying the GTO method on how to win coinflips, I persevered and won a seat to the main. The first day was surreal – once again, I was running on minimal sleep due to my housing arrangements, but I remember the following hands from day 1:
Button opens to 2.2x, I’m in the BB with Q9cc. SB folds, we go HU to a flop of 832c. He c-bets, I call. Turn 4x, x/x. River Ax. I check, he bets, I x/r to like 3x his bet, he insta folds. I take it down and show air.
UTG+1 opens, MP calls, I flat on the button with K10ss. 3 ways to a flop of Qs43xx. UTG+1 bets 40% pot, MP calls, I call. Turn is the Js. UTG+1 bets 60% pot, MP calls, I flat. River comes the 8s. UTG+1 snap bets 80%. MP flats, I flat. I announce king high flush, they both muck.
Folds to the SB, he limps, I look down at Q10o, and check. Flop comes KQ6r. He leads 35%, I call. Turn 10. He bets, I call. River comes a J. He bets, I tank for about 45 seconds then flick in a call, he shows 76o… ship it.
The average stack after day 1 was around 40k, I bagged like 65k. I walked back to the Deuce stop outside of the Venetian and headed on my 30 minute ride back home. I kept thinking to myself, someone’s gotta win this thing, why not me? I had to get in the money for this tournament to be able to get the fuck out of there. A min cash here was over $3k – that was more than enough for me to get a suite on Fremont for a few nights and party for a bit, then get home with my head held high. Day 2: I get up at 7am after already being completely awake for the past 4 hours. There’s no way I slept more than 3 hours last night. I hit the Denny’s by the Stratosphere then get on the Deuce. I get to the Venetian and feel like I’m about to fall asleep. I go to the self-serve coffee/tea dispenser in the middle of the room and make myself an iced coffee. I get to my table, and the cocktail waitress comes around. I ask for another iced coffee and toss her a fiver. Here are some highlights from the 1st half of day 2:
I open 97ss on the button, BB flats. Flop comes AK3s. BB checks, I bet 35%. He throws out a 5k chip – which I interpret as a x/r to my bet. I groan, make a joke about it being the first hand of the day, and start to muck. The dealer stops my cards midway before hitting the muck, and informs me that he didn’t raise, that he called my flop bet. Everyone laughs, I go silent and wait for him to make change. Turn is the 2s. He thinks for a second and bets 30%. I tank for like 30 seconds, then flat. River is a blank. He thinks for a second, then checks. I bet like 30% pot. He tells me that I’m an angle shooter and mucks. I tell him I’m not an angle shooter and show my 9 high. Everyone laughs, we get on with playing.
CO opens, I 3b 87dd in the SB to 4x, he flats. Flop comes 1032d. I check, he checks. Turn is the 6d. I bet 55% pot, he flats. River comes the Kd. I bet 60%, he tanks, tells me he thinks I backdoored diamonds, then folds. Damn, these players are pretty good.
I open KK UTG to 2.5x, UTG +1 flats. Heads up to a flop of K43r. x/x. Turn 8, I bet 40% pot, he calls. River 3, I bet 80% pot, he tanks, then calls with AK.
I bring my 3 racks of chips to the new table and immediately get some comments – whatever, I’m just on a heater, it happens. At this point, my body was giving out. I was trying my hardest not to fall asleep in between every hand. Cutoff opens, I’m in the SB, I look down at KK. I put in the 3b, folds back to him. He puts in a healthy 4. We’re the two big stacks at the table – I’d guess he was 50bb effective while I was around 65bb. God damn, am I good enough to fold kings here? No, I’m not. I shove, he snaps, I know that I’ve just fucked up my tournament. He shows the aces. The dealer puts a king in the window, and I hold. I’m for sure the chip leader now. I lose a few 40/60 and 60/40 flips and chip down a bit. I still have a very healthy stack, probably around 80bb. The next 3 hands are from the second half of day 2:
Aggro Asian guy on the button. Folds to him, he opens to 2.2x, SB folds, I look down at 43ss and raise to 7.5x, he flats.
Flop comes 894cc. I check, he bets, I call. Turn’s another 9. I check, he bets 75% pot, I call. River’s the 10c. I check, he bets 1.2x pot. I ask the dealer for a count of the bet – meanwhile, villain looks like he’s going to shit himself. I flick in a chip, he throws down KcQx. I laugh a little, show my 43ss, and obnoxiously say ship it.
I open KQo UTG+1, MP 3bets me. I figure that a 4b from UTG+1 could take it down a fair amount of the time, so I decide to go for it. He thinks for a second and flats.
Flop comes AK4r. I check, he checks back. Turn is a 6, goes x/x again. River’s another brick. I put in a 30% value bet. He does a little grimace and tanks for like 20 seconds. It looks like he’s going to fold so I start verbally telling him that his queens are good. The dealer informs me that you’re not allowed to talk about your hand to another player. I inform him that I’m not talking about my hand, I’m talking about villains’ hand. Dealer laughs and lets me continue to antagonize villain. MP starts talking back, asking if I’m really bluffing. I inform him that once he folds, I’ll show the bluff. He ends up calling, I snap show, he pays me then gets up from the table to go for a walk.
We’re playing 6 handed. UTG opens, MP flats, I flat TT on the button. 3 ways to a flop of AT9ccc. UTG bets 50% pot, MP folds, I put in a medium sized raise. He thinks about it and flats.
The turn is the Kd. He pauses for a second then checks. I figured AxKc was his most likely combo. I didn’t think he could fold AxKc to any sizing – I decide to overbet jam 2x pot. He tanks for like 5 min and eventually lets it go. He tells me later he folded AxKc. Nice fold sir. I finished day two 2nd in chips out of the 64 players remaining. More importantly, I was in the money. My friend Matt offered to give me a ride to the hostel to grab my stuff. On the way to the hostel I’m telling Matt how trash the place is and he’s kind of like yeah man, whatever, it can’t be that bad. We gather my belongings and head on out. Matt remarked to me that the hostel reminded him of jail mixed with a summer camp. I open a same night hotel app and see a room at the Four Queens available for $110. The lady at check in was nice enough – however, she informed me that the only room they had available at my price point was a smoking room overlooking the Fremont St. experience. I paid the $20 to upgrade to a non-smoking in the quiet part of the hotel. Vegas man, I swear. It’s like 2am at this point -- I get to my room, sit on the bed and close my eyes. I open them and it’s 11:00am. Ah fuck man, I gotta get to the Venetian. I hop in the shower, brush my teeth, and freshen up. Even if I don’t have clean clothes, whatever, I’m second in the main, who cares. Some interesting hands from the first part of Day 3:
I had two inexcusable punts in this tournament. This is the first one: I open 5h5c from LP, BB calls. Flop comes J62hhh. x/x. Turn is a 4x. x, I bet 50% pot, BB jams 15bb. I called – and immediately realized I fucked up, big time. He had 2 big chips in his stack that I didn’t see, making his shove effectively like 25bb. In addition, I didn’t have the 5h, I had the 5d. I really didn’t ask for a count or double check my hole cards. Villain turns over 64o and holds. In my defense, I literally didn’t know what ICM meant at the time. Whoops.
Someone who I recognize from poker TV jams 22bb UTG. I’m in the CO with JJ, I ask him how much it is, he’s talkative and seems genuinely comfortable/down for me to call. I fold – I run into him a few days later at the Aria, he tells me he had AA there. I believe him.
CO opens, button instantly jams 30bb effective. I’m in the SB with TT and 25bb – live reads, we’re flipping. I call for all in my effective stack, CO folds, button has AQ. I hold. He’s not happy I called with tens. Oh well, sorry bro, gg.
MP opens, CO 3 bets to 7bb, button jams 20bb. I look down at 2 black aces in the big blind. I reshove, MP folds, CO calls off his 20bb stack. I’m up against AQ and QQ. I hold.
Even with my atrocious punt earlier in the day, I’m the chip leader again. We’re down to about 15 left in the field. UTG opens, I 3b AKo on the button, he jams 20bb, I call. He has 99, a king comes on the flop and he’s gone. It’s day 3 of the main and we’re playing 5 handed with 12 people left. Let’s fucking go.
Button opens to 2.5x, I’m in the BB with A8dd, I flat. Flop comes A104r, I check, he bets, I call. Turn is a 7, x/x. River A, I bet 1.2x pot. He tanks, calls, I show, I’m good.
CO opens to 2.5x, I’m in the BB with 108dd, I flat. Flop comes Kd4x2d, it goes x/x. Turn is a Kx, I check, he bets 60% pot, I flat. River is the 4d. I check, he bets pot. I tank and let it go. He tells me later he checked back a weak king on the flop.
SB completes, I’m in the BB with J9o and I check my option. Flop comes Q108r. The SB donks out into me for 60% pot. I flat. Turn comes a brick and he leads into me for 60% again. I raise to 3.5x his turn bet, he thinks for a while then flats. River is another brick. He bets 80% pot into me. I tank for a while, then shove. He starts laughing and folds QQ face up.
Less than a week ago I was grinding buffet comps at Planet Hollywood. Now I have guys correctly folding top set to me. I’ve made it to the final table. I pick up a few small pots and the two shortstacks at the table get eliminated in quick succession. This is without a doubt the most pointless and just plain out stupid punt of my entire life: I open J2dd on the button into a ~18bb SB and a GTO robot with mid 7 figures in career earnings in the BB. Don’t do this, this is quite literally lighting money on fire. SB folds, BB flats. Flop comes Kh8h3d. I cbet, BB calls. Turn is the Kd, goes x/x. River comes a 7h, he leads into me for half pot. Whatever, I’m going for it – I put in a raise. He thinks for all of 5 seconds then calls me with KQh. Wow, I just punted away $50,000 in ICM. Jesus Christ dude, what the fuck. For the next orbit or two, I’m clearly pissed at myself. I get up after my button and do a lap around the poker room – I’m good. The monkey tilt is gone, and I’m ready to get back to playing normal ranges. Anyway, nothing else really happens for a while – I look down at AKo UTG and raise it up. Folds around to the BB, he thinks for a while, then jams for about 20bb. I snap, he has AQo. I hold. I’m now second in chips. We go on a 10-minute break. When I get back to the table, the prospect of a 5-way chop comes up. We’re all tired – and the pay jumps are very significant. If you couldn’t tell from this story, I’m a degenerate, but in this spot, I’m willing to reduce variance a bit. We run the numbers and come to an agreement – we all agree to take a very slight ICM bump to give 1st place a bit more money than his stack is worth. I just won $129,000 -- huh? This was my second tournament cash – not too bad considering that it was my third tournament ever. Maybe I should start learning how to play MTT’s now. I take $124,000 in a check and $5,000 in cash. I’m leaving Vegas in 4 days and don’t plan on coming home with any of the cash. The winner of the tournament’s a pretty cool guy and he asks if I want to crash in his guest room tonight… like yeah, if that’s a real offer, I’m down. I pick up my toiletry bag from the Venetian concierge and we hit the Uber. The next morning Matt picks me up at his house – I hit the Chase bank and deposit the $124,000. I take Matt and my other friend, Spencer out to the Sterling Brunch over at Bally’s – the entire time, Spencer just kept repeating “Davis, what the fuck”. I don’t know dude, seriously, what the fuck. I get a suite at the D downtown that night and (very) long story short I end up hitting $100 on a number at roulette at 5am. It’s time for bed. Here’s a link to my Hendon Mob, verifying my tournament result. Hopefully I see some of you guys at the WSOP in 2021. https://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=783521 Davis
