Strange bubble min bet here
4 dollar line bet or come bet min
3-4-5 odds
I had a great session after lunch when we went back down
I hit so many repeaters and a hard 8 that I had 8 bucks on
I won a bit under 500 at the bubble but gave it all back just now with 2 sessions on live table
When I went back second time some robust little butterball of a female was on a rip roll
Number after number but she couldn't get the 2 to hit the all all bet
But she made the table a fortune and I came too late and watched and cried
Repeater after repeater
Butterball never pressed any of her 3 bets higher than 5 or 6 dollars and she had around 400 bucks at 7 out
I don't know what she started with

I counted up just now in room
I'm up less than 100 dollars today but I guess a win is a win
My wife did not lose any money here but gave back all the free slot money she won on freebie play

Restaurants here close at 10 tonight so if I have ant energy soon I'll go bring back something
Otherwise it's shit snacks in room

I am amazed how well we've done this trip
Tomorrow might be our last gaming day if I can't get a room close to 4 winds new buffalo
We won't settle for a dump hotel

Can't fucking believe I told wife I just want to visit American pickers show place in le Claire and she found another fucking quilt store 100 lousy feet from them
100 fucking feet
So I'm going to waste another hour looking at jelly rolls and batiks

 

I have not played the electronic table yet
Don't know what the mins and odds are

 

This is Barney

The LID hates de sharpshitter bet too because of time he hit 18 points on an Ohio River Casino Boat. After 10 points it stops and he only got $5980 on $20 bet. Good thing was the game was not interupted since no taxes are required on the 299 to 1 carnival bet but he got no extra monies for the remaining 8 bets other then tips and line and odd bet collection. He thinks he got screwed by the sharpshooter bet. I know after I collected my cut; I did.

 

Nothing is open here for coffee at 6:20 so I went into casino for self serve


Nothing but decaf 10 minute wait for brewing

The bubble is right next to it

My wife was still is sleeping so I only took down my loose bills

I had 4 20's 3 10's and 5 5's
Loads of singles but keep them for tips

I was just about all in when the bubble decided it liked me

Won 499 bucks waiting for brew and then didn't get

I'll drag my wife downstairs for some breakfast or go to paneras

 

You are going to wind-up with stick up-side your head, when she finds out you had some money she didnt know about. Don't tell her about your winner. Go to the cashiers cage and trade back for your loose bills, and tell her you broke even. That's a five hundred dollar "stake" that you won't have to make excuses for later. You are in the fabled "catbirds seat". Be sure to get the same denominations, because she most likely went through your wallet while you were sleeping, and took "inventory". You'll be "in the clear" as long as she's not one of those meticulous types, that records the serial numbers.

 

I'm sure that Liman's lovely wife doesn't mess with his wallet Baron.

My own has only dug into the safe money once or twice over years, in order to get a graduation gift without having to go to the bank.

One time, I had to pull out about 2K to buy some new tires when the Mrs. told me that "she" was not 'paying a fortune for your stupid car. '

Baron, how are you feeling after your fall?

 

Was only four stories, and I got lucky and landed on a pile of bricks. That was not an accident either, somebody pushed me. How did you know about it?

 

I couldn't give a shit if my wife goes through my wallet


I've been playing all day except for an hour break when we drove to leclaire

Not killing it

After that nice score on bubble I dropped close to 7 hundred combined table play and bubble play

Been a good run up till today

 

Actually dropped more like 1000 after that win I forgot while waiting for wife to leave earlier I dropped 300

Table has been 10 dollar min today

 

"Couldn't give a shit"? Well, I guess it's pretty easy to see who wears the "jock-strap" in this household.

 

She's most likely going to outlive me by 20 years
Everything will be hers
If you can't trust your wife of 42 plus years you are totally fucked

we are at buffet

we used all our points converted to free play so we are paying full price
Don't think I've ever paid full price for a casino buffet in my life
I don't eat crab legs my wife is enjoying the legs and shrimp

the carving station has a large selection but it's all over cooked dried out or way to fatty

baked chicken is ok Thai meatballs are ok

great salad bar with list of fruit and soup

mid you like crab legs you can't go wrong here
We skipped lunch today and came down here at 4 when it opened
There was a line

 

Tomorrow later afternoon we will be in 4 winds new Buffalo if anyone is around and wants to shoot some dice

pm me

we decided to head to indiana early and chill out with a down day or two

 

Btw I'm not judging or calling people assholes but if you come to this buffet with double masks ?

stay the fuck home
Bad enough you chose a casino and then choose the wide open buffet ?

I mean really?
Take your 2 masks off

 

No!

 

And reality bites me back

Dropped another 400 something

No one at live table

Finally one guy so I went over



Do better on bubble


I played the electronic table

3 dollar min bet with 5 times odds

I left up 40 dollars

I won 80 on indidual bubble then I went to live table


My wife held on stop the losing and came up with 70 from her 20 dollar slot buy in

She's happy

She's spent 1600 dollars in all the quilt stores so far and told me she's done

Ok whatever

One more note before I leave Iowa

This is a great place overall most people here smile and are courteous and pleasant

The staff everywhere in any retail business we've visited needs some work

I get no one wants to work anymore and it's all teenagers in every position

I'm a fat person but what's up with all the young women in this state

There is a severe weight problem here with young women

Zero eye candy in any casino

Maybe I go up too early

 

It’s getting up that counts!

 

On to 4 winds for a night

 

Fat is the "new normal". Mostly poor diet. A 200 pounder is considered scrawny. What I can't believe, is some of the GARGANTUAN ASSES you see.

 

I was 185 when I retired. I went to 210 in 90 days.. I am having a helluva tough time getting below 200. I can’t get there. My body wants me to be 207.

Combination of exercise/activity and genetics. A common sense diet goes without saying. Don’t eat after 5 pm and avoid sugared drinks are my tips for success. Success to me is < 207.

Fat ass broads are more of a turnoff to me than tattoos.

Hey, Duck. Today is World Emoji Day. Take the day off.

 

Something like this? Mrs Bill Cosby.
