Have a Vegas trip report of your own to share? Let us know! Featured StoryBackground: I am 21 year old Australian living in Melbourne with a few mates and we all love a gamble. This was before I was taking poker seriously so there is zero poker mentioned in this trip, its all gambling and partying etc.
One of my friends has a very wealthy dad who loves to gamble and go to vegas more than anything. He's a pretty good guy and gets me and a few more mates into the high roller rooms at Melbournes Crown Casino and lets us do our own thing, so basically a pretty good bloke who knows how to have a good time. His name is Ben
So Ben and his mad crew of wealthy gamblers go to Vegas annually and this year as we have all turned 21, invited 4 of us to come along this year. We'll basically jump forward in time a year to where we are boarding our Qantas flight to LA > Vegas.
Land in vegas and we are staying at the Luxor. It seemed fairly well priced for us but the guys usually stay at the Bellagio.
First day we are shockingly jet lagged and are in bed befofore midnight, and up at a normal time the next day ready for a big day. We split up a little and go our different ways but never really move far from the luxor, we make a quick visit to Excalibur and New York New York buy by nights end we are back at the Luxor playing baccarat. Good news is Ben our wealthy host has dropped 15K already and we now have a fantastic casino concierge willing to do some very nice things for us. Her name is Pam.
So by nights end we have a 2 tables set out for us for the night, one at Luxors LAX in their VIP area, and the other waiting for us at the Cat House also at the luxor for when we feel like moving over. LAX is crazy, first we are all in there and ordering $900 bottles of burboun and have a large group of girls come in seated at the table next to us. To trim the fat basically for the rest of the night us and the girls get wild, a few hook up a few dont (not me ) and we eventually move onto the Cat House.
This is where the night got really wild where we met a few more chicks who we will say were "on the clock". One of my mates and one of the working girsl really hit it off and quickly into the night have dissapeared up into the hotel room, while the rest of us just get spastically blind and enjoy ourselves.
Day two we wake up feeling like crap but we already have a limo organised to take us through the "vegas ghetto" for a laugh and then down to Fremont St for a bit of Vegas History. Our limo driver notices the state we are in and offers what he calls the perfect solution..."In n Out"? Confused we roll into the limo and try to choke on our tongues to end our pain on the ride and not long after we arrive at a burger joint, In n Out. Now I get it, and now I'm a changed man. Seriously some of the best stuff I've ever chowed down absoultely amazing.
So feeling better we move down to freemont St, I managed have a small win shooting some dice at the Nugget but nothing amazing and we move back up to the Luxor. That night fairly uneventful but still a good night playing "Mississippi Stud" at the Luxor, amazing game we dont have in Australia. So this one Mississippi Stud table is our new meeting point in the mornings.
The next morning I am up fairly early keen to get in some hours on my new fav game MS before the rest roll out and we move on for the day. I generally lose on my new fav game (as is the case for most of the week) but am still satisfied to be playing it.
We have dinner booked in at a place called "Switch" at the Wynn/Encore where basically the walls and roof change every 20 mins. Sounds good. That day we spend at the Wynn and wow am I amazed. Just a great casino. We play some dice n slots and pretty much break even for the day before dinner. The dinner is incredibly, some of the best food again I've eaten and the entire restuarant is impressive in itself, where the walls really do impress. For those who havent seen, they actually do change, the entire walls. Not just parts but the entire walls move into the ground and new ones come through.
That night we meet up with some other Aussies and shoot some dice with them and have a good time and then receive a phone call from Pam saying we have been given a free ride in XS at the Encore. Very nice. We move into there for the night and get asbolutly blotto and for the first night I manage to get in with a girl and we enjoy some time sitting pool side.
Next morning feel like crap, basically bum around the strip, go and play some BlackJack at the Venetian, some more blackjack at the Wynn and have a look through MGM but dont play
For the night we have the chefs table booked at some steak place at New York New York. I cant remember the name of it but for those familiar with NYNY its right near the Piano Bar. From what they've told me its an amazing place with some of the beast steak around. The place lives up to its rep and we enjoy a good dinner and move over to the Piano Bar.
Our good friend Ben managed to get us in and a nice table where we sink near a thousand Long Island Iced Teas (not commen in Australia) and get blotto again. After some table dancing and singing we end up chatting to a few american girls and we are lucky enough myself and 2 other mates get a friend each to spend the night with. For the sake of descretion I wont go much further into it, but we were all sharing a hotel room
So the next day is very relaxed, we are absolutely run down after the last 3 big nights and we end up at ceasers for the day just relaxing on some slot machines and playing some BlackJack. Not much to talk about today, we gamble (I lose as usual) and end up calling it a night a bit after midnight.
The next day we have tickets to see the LA Wranglers Ice Hockey Team (never seen a game of ice hockey before) so we prepare for that and go in and watch. Pretty amazing game to see live, really enjoyed it and managed to survive not getting whacked by a puck. For those who follow this league/team it was a game where Spencer was playing his old team and they had a fight at the very start of the match (talk about spioled). So that was pretty good to see.
Our good friend Ben and Limo driver have decided however on the way home they were going to play a little game. Ben writes down all of our names on a peice of paper and puts them in a hat and explains to us there are 2 working girls waiting for us at the hotel, whoevers name gets pulled out gets a free few hours with the two girls I dont know wether I want my name called out or not, as it wouldnt be past Ben to have a few tricks up his sleeve and the girls wouldnt be all their made out to be.
I later find out, dissapointingly, my name wasnt called pulled out. The 2 girls are stunning, and are waiting out the front of the limo as we pull up. Oh well, good luck I guess.
That night I managed to pull out 1K on a slot machine which really is my only win for the week so far, so I'm pretty happy with it.
The next morning playing my fav game MS, and for those familiar with the game, I managed to get quad 10's with $100 out in total for a payout of 4k, not I'm fairly happy the week hasnt been a total disgrace and I can say I'm up for at least a couple of days.
That night we end up playing baccarat at the Bellagio with one of the most incredible looking girls I've seen. Usually we get propositioned by working girls who are also working as bar girls, and I'm up a few K on baccarat so I'm really hoping I manage to strike a deal with this girl. I've stayed away from paying for fun the entire trip, now coming to the end, this girl could have me for almost any price she wanted. Shes extremely flirty, delivering drinks while sitting on my lap and rubbing my back etc and letting me put my hands basically wherever I wanted. Sadly though when the conversation went the way I wanted it to, she got the idea and dropped the bombshell I didnt want to hear, she has a husband and isn't a working girl Bad luck though, she is still extremely flirty so I tip accordingly and we have a good time until I go busto at about 7am and head back to the hotel
The next morning though I hear the best stories of the trip. 2 of our enterouge staying in the same room are seperated for the night. One finds a working girl to bring up to the room while the other is in bed watching some TV before falling asleep. The working girl demands he has a shower before they get the deed done, so he instructs his sleepy friend to "watch her" while he has a shower. 10 minutes later hes finished his shower to walk out and find his friend asleep on the bed, the girl gone, and his wallet empty. Chaos ensues as he accused his friend of using the girl for his own devices and then paying with his friends money. As it turns out he just fell asleep and the girls robbed them both, but the rest of the trip is filled with insults and abuse to the point of tears
So yeah basically my first trip to Vegas was everything a guy wants it to be. Booze and girl filled with gambling highs and lows, treated like royalty and losing 3k in a week on a "liquid diet."
