While not quite as extravagant as some of the other posters on here, I
will report on how I did this weekend. (As I usually go at least two
weekends a month)
Friday Night:
Started out at Carson Valley Inn...played 5c 9/6 JoB for a while. Lost
$20 ultimately, hit one 4oak. Afterwards, drove into Reno to stay
cheaply at The Nugget...found out they have 10/6 DDB 25c machines
right by the door going out to the parking garage...While playing I
filled on a double-belly-buster straight flush, all the while my
granma had hit SIX 4oak's (All between 5-K though!). I soon after
switched machines as after the SF I really got my butt kicked. Caught
a 5-K 4oak to get my money back and cashed out even money.
Saturday:
Got up and had breakfast over at Silver Club on the cheap, then walked
back over to Nugget and played PaiGow Poker for about 2 hours...after
watching a guy on #6 hit TWO straight flush's, I got up and left even.
Headed down to Carson to play at GoldDust West...Mostly played craps
here as they really don't have that great of VP's...However they do
have a bank of 25c 8/5 BP's, so, with my last $20 (out of $200) I
dropped it in and hit a 4oak 3's for $80, followed almost immediately
by a 4oak J's . Cashed out and called it a night.
Sunday:
Woke up and went over to Carson Nugget to get breakfast. Saw some 5c
8/5 BP, so I decided just to try my luck with $5...gave my mom a $20
because she wanted to try $3 BJ table for a bit...in the time it took
me to lose that $5, she had taken that $20 I gave her and brought it
up to $70! So we gathered up and headed BACK up to Reno Nugget...this
time we just stuck to the 25c 10/6 DDB's...each of us took $20...We
all finally lost after hitting nothing respectable, when my mom was
back to her $20, she had a pair of 2's, and hit draw...BAM, A-2-2! for
A2222...$40! Zingo! So we decided to leave, considering all the play
we did, and the different casino's we hit up. I'd say over the course
of 3 days, losing $20 each ($200 start, $140 end) was DAMN good...
until next time...
-the low rollin whale.
05/02 - 05/04 Trip Report....
When you refer to the Reno Nugget, I believe you mean John Ascuaga's
Nugget in Sparks, not the little dive called The Nugget on N. Virginia
St. in Reno.
George in SF

Right, right. John Ascuaga's Nugget in Sparks, sorry. I don't even
consider "The Nugget" on Virginia a playable casino....
