So we get to the hotel (Stratosphere), and get checked in. The rooms are OK. Nothing special. A good price for a clean place to stay. The bathroom was nice enough - a big tub for my luxuriation! The casino was just big enough, and not too busy. The poker room is TINY. And the female poker director is very outspoken and funny - she cracked me up! The only thing that I really did not like about the Strat is the fact that it's sooooooooooo far down the strip that it's kind of a pain in the ass to get to and from. Luckily, we had Ray's car there so that we did not have to burn a ton of $$$ on cabs.
We get to the room, and take a nap. Yes - a nap. Grandpa Smokkee was sleepy. I finally gave in, deciding that a nap would allow me to stay up really late that night. Zzzzzzzzzzzz
So, after the nap, we get beautified and head over to the Rio to see who we could see. I see a few Pros:
Phil -
Jesus:
Doyle:
And Fuel55!!! Not a pro, but just as good in my book! Plus, he had Jesus at his table.
Smokkee gets a call from Hoy, and we are directed to donkey table 161, where Iak, Hoy, Don and Weak have settled down for some WSOP cash game action. We chat a while and my girl Carmen heads over. I get the fashion update and the gameplan for the night: MGM cash games (aka donkeyland). A while later, Smokkee signs up for a satellite, where he ends up splitting the money with 2 other guys. Nice Job Honey!
After that, we head to MGM.

It was really great meeting and talking to you about dogs and travel. Thanks for coming over and being social with me. Too bad my brain left when you did!
I actually flew over that roller coaster Friday morning on our goofing around flight. We were doing our stunts right there on the border.
