Hey gang!
5 nights in AC. 1 "fancy dinner" and a good bit o' penny slotting .80 a spin to 2.50 spin. We are chairman status, so drinks and eats should be
covered for the most part.
Should 8 bones be enough for me? I am kind of afraid that might not be enough. How much would you guys bring? Any ideas to make it last?
I heard something about an envelope system... Just curious. Thanks Jokers.:decision:
If your talking 8k I would say yes just put $1500 in 5 envelopes one for each day then $500 for other stuff and your golden.
Yeah. I'd say 8 is more than enough. I usually do 1k per day. So for five days I'd probably do 5k.
HHH. I wish. That would be 8 hundy. Now,I am certain I am on the low end. Oh well, the life of a screenprinter. I will do the envelope trick.Quote:

Slotdude, I am a big time low-roller. Sometimes I will grow a pair and bet bigger, but it is not the norm. You can get some great hits off of .60-.75 bets and more than double your daily BR. Good luck to you! I hope the slots will be in a giving mood.
Thanks for the pep talk Zeus! I think I can make it work on 1k. That's the number. Thanks again for the input.Quote:

Right on!! Great advice. I can do this. I can do this.Quote:

Since we take a $1000 for staying overnight in Laughlin, Nevada, I could never do 5 nights anywhere! Would love to hear if it works out for you, please post when you get back! Good luck.
I think if you play like Zues says you should be okay. I wish you the best of luck.
I thought you meant $800. I think you're safer with a grand for 5 days low rolling. I personally like to keep my bets at around a dollar and can usually get enough good hits to keep me going for a few days and I usually have a pretty small bankroll. I love to gamble, but there is a lot of travelling I could do for $8,000 lol, don't think I could ever put that much in a slot machine in 5 days.
$1000 at .80 to 2.50 a spin would still be tough. Might have to lower your bet size to .40 or .50 to maintain for 5 days. Where is a Chairman card from? Play the older Aristocratic games where you can play less lines. Good Luck Slotdude!

HHH!! I kind of am too. We live 50 mins away from Ac. So, I frequently visit. And rarely win. Hence,the puny bankroll for this particular trip.Quote:

My wife is the " muscle" in the slot play department. We both play on her card. And we live close to the Golden Nugget. Not sure if that's a good or bad thing.:torn: Yea, I like the old aristocrat games. Good call.Quote:

We are low rollers too. We always plan about $200 a day for each of us. You can do it, and still have a great time.Quote:

Helps ensure you won't go on tilt if you have no self control lol.
LOL I take $100 a day. And, I have a great time in Vegas every time I go. Good luck, and have a great time.
I could and do have zero problem with a BR like yours and I have just as much fun as anyone with much more. Have a great time and good luck!!

I'm planning on $500 a day for me for our Biloxi trip and I play around a $1.00 a spin. $800 for the whole trip would be hard to do for me.
I am definitely not the one who should be commenting on this thread LOL
I need to get some discipline....and envelopes for my 11 day LV trip next month. I did try low rolling at Coushatta...thats how I know I need discipline :numbness: Good luck @Slotdude!
