Las Vegas After Math - A Random trip report

Nice report Random. Thank you for sharing all that info with us.
Wow! You really are a math guy, aren't you?
Dude, you are amazing!
I'm the total opposite, do not keep up with this stuff like that.
I kept thinking "I can't keep reading this report, too many mind numbing numbers."
But, I couldn't stop, because it was so...interesting, fascinating.
I appreciate your calculation of the $ value of the flushes and full houses on FP.

Congrats on going home winners!

Great trip report! I loved every word!




FYI, it's Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be, Will Be) by Doris Day.


Top notch reporting indeed! Love the applied real life math explanations- of course I'll most likely play Wheel-of-Fortune on my next trip, but still. . . .

Great work coming out ahead for the trip $$$. That's the way to do it!

It was great seeing you again J. Next time perhaps we'll go over to the Bellagio for a few hours of Texas Hold'em.
Great report!!

Everybody should keep "session" logs as the IRS accepts them for proof of play.

I keep session logs, including machine#/table #, denomination (slots), money in,
win/loss. The casino address and phone number and who was with me on the trip. I spreadsheet it after each casino visit. With this data you can justify away your W2G or 1099's. The IRS has accepted mine in an audit.

...and you thought you were anal!!!
You lost me at math content, but I hope the trip turned out good!

Cliff notes are your friend.

Can I copy your session logs? I have a feeling I'm going to owe the man some money this year!
Ok, I tried to read it again, but you lost me after getting to Red Rock and calculating your sessions.

Is this a vacation for you? I can kind of understand the O C D accounting thing, but you take it to a new level.

Thanks to all you folks who posted comments.

Tommy, a little poker at the B sounds like a plan.

Nesalk, congratulations on your masters.

John in Big D, I'm not worthy, I'm not worthy... There are some additional fields that I should add to my logs. You have inspired me. :-) I have never been audited by the IRS and hope that is not in my future, but having logs does help me worry less about the prospect.

Erin, I appreciate that you made and effort and understand that my report was far too long. They say that brevity is the soul of wit. That would make me pretty much witless.
