Nothing wrong with that.

Byrne at the Colosseum.

Game 2, playoffs, Utah wins 3 : 2.

Now 1 - 1.

More than a bit of craziness that ended quite well.

First session: dumped -$250K

Second session: promptly dumped another -70K then got a Big 6 Tiger plus Bank win to bring me about +100K then some back and forth until at the low for that session I was minus around -900K. THAT was not edifying.

Then I won four 250K hands in a row to bring me back to +100K and then gradually won steadily until I stopped at +$280K.

Took a break. Went to a different casino. Had dinner.

Third session: I hit a massive win Tiger 6 after I was down maybe -70K and ended the session +$185K

And this is the MDawg challenge.

First session dumped -$250K, rather quickly.

Second session, won +$300K, took a bit of time, but not very long.

Relief!

Not looking good for the Knights. They needed to win the first two home games, so that if they lost the two away, it would be tied.

I generally tip 18% of food only. I deduct for any drinks and give a dollar or two per drink. I do not tip against tax.

If there is any takeout, I deduct all of that and if the tip on the food served in house is sizable or at least decent then I tip zero or close to zero on the takeout.

But what if it’s a very high-end establishment and we’re getting something like Japanese Wagyu or caviar or some kind of Omakase where the bill for two people is pushing $1000. for the food alone. I generally don’t tip the full 18% of the food if we’re talking about something like $500 of Wagyu or something like that in caviar, etc.

In other words at some point, my tipping maxes out more or less and if the bill is above a certain point and represents extremely expensive individual items I don’t give a full 18% maybe more like 10 - 14% of the food only is what it comes out to in those situations.

I do tip in cash, so the server doesn’t have to declare all of it and that helps the server a bit too.

I realize that there is a general practice of not tipping a full 18% or whatever on say an expensive bottle of wine. You don’t have to give the server 18% of a $5000 bottle of wine just for opening it but what about serving very expensive food does the same principle apply that there is no need to tip a full 18% of a $500 steak? It is no more difficult to uncork and pour a $5000 bottle of wine as a $100 bottle, nor is serving a $500 steak more difficult than serving a $50 one if you follow what I’m saying and getting at.

Being in a the high roller world I believe you’re a little cheap. I from blue collar roots and tend to tip 25-30% for good service. Having worked in the service industry myself I appreciate the hustle of good service.

Not saying g you should tip $300 on a $1000 bottle of wine but still should also consider level of service given.

High end steak house waiter definitely giving you better service than Outback. Should be tipped accordingly

Just saw an article that said McDonald's goes to cash only. Really? Why? Their credit card networks go down!
