Cryptic sent me to Las Vegas this past weekend! I brought Judy. We stayed at the Palazzo. Fun was had. Sites were seen.
I guess you could say that this was my first real (unsupervised) trip to Vegas, so I got to do pretty much just what I felt like doing, which was great. Anyhow, the sites and activities are well documented by others, I’m sure, so I’ll just go over the numbers.
Friday:
Venitian, $10 Craps (3-4-5) on $200 bankroll: -$55
Venitian, Cryptic Hospitality: +$500
Saturday:
Palazzo, $10 Craps (3-4-5) on $300 bankroll: +$410
MGM Grand, $5 Craps (3-4-5) on $300 bankroll: +$99
MGM Grand, Ka by Cirque du Soleil: -$280
Sunday:
Casino Royale, $5 Craps (5x) on $300 bankroll: -$300
Venitian, $10 Craps (3-4-5) on $200 bankroll: +$105
Total (hospitality, show, and gambling): +$479
So, my personal gambling (not counting Judy’s penny slots) plus the Ka show plus Cryptic Hospitality still ends up fairly well in the black. Even with the couple hundred we spent on dining, souvenirs, and conveniences, we’re still ahead by a fair amount. Nothing like a free trip to Vegas to lighten your spirits ![]()
