6-month gambling spree at Wynn Las Vegas funded by $10M fraud scheme, lawsuit alleges
This is the lady I was running into every now and then at Wynn in 2022 that I thought was Robbi Jade Lew.
I spent time talking to Robbi at Wynn, not to Sara.
Both were memorable though, seeing them walking down the halls.
You may see how it might be possible to confuse the two.

IMO, the only "advantage" that MDawg has is an almost unlimited bankroll AND a House that has expanded their wagering maximums. It is easily provable by having MDawg play his games at "regular" house tables, with a limited, say $5,000 bankroll, and max wagers of $2,000. Consider this: MDawg buy-in = $250k; table max = say $25k; average session win (I am guessing here) $20k which equals a whopping 8% overall return.
I personally believe given similar circumstances most any "accomplished" focused and disciplined gambler could have the same results playing most table games using the above parameters.

I got some Waterford crystal whisky footed tumblers as a wedding gift but I have never purchased any "good" crystal. I do have a crystal Ice Bucket that I like but I doubt it is a big name.

Have many different sizes of Waterford crystal, water goblets, wine, champagne flutes, tumblers, small glasses, large glasses, here are just a few I grabbed from one of our cabinets, all in need of dusting
but as far as Baccarat it might be that empty Louis XIII bottles are all I have.
I recall a story from Ripley's Believe it or Not about a king who insisted that everything he drank be imbibed from a crystal chalice because he believed that the crystal had the power to render any poison harmless, but ended up dying from an infection he got when the chalice broke and a sliver from it embedded in his foot.

We also have scores of some other kind of crystal, it's neither Waterford nor Baccarat, cabinet fulls of it.
And while on the subject, what about solid sterling silverware?
We have this one set of 12 that has never been used
along with a set that we do use on some occasions. I just grabbed some of the spoons from that set to take a pic.
I didn't take any pics, but also serving trays, decanters, all sorts of ridiculously heavy solid sterling silver stuff. Jean Valjean (pre rehabilitation) would have had a field day.

In that we have that full set of 12 sterling silver I took a picture of, and have never even opened them up to use them - I would have to agree that silverware isn't particularly in use these days.
But, we still do use our one set of sterling for special occasion dinner parties, and we use the serving trays and decanters every now and then.
If she's looking to give them away, I'll take them all! I'll pay melt value or close.

take the silver and use it or not. After she is gone, you can sell it for about $20 an ounce ... each item weighs at least an ounce.

I would never sell at as it has sentimental value to my mother. It will be given to kids or grandkids and if they sell it I am fine with it.

As long as the silverware is solid sterling (not plated) there is no risk of lead or anything like that, so if you like, you may eat with genuine silverware every day of your life and not worry. Other than about losing or scratching it - those are the two reasons why we don't use the real stuff daily, but even among stainless steel flatware there is a wide range of quality and prices too. One set of stainless flatware we have is pretty expensive and it just glides into your mouth it's so smoooth and perfectly weighted too so that it balances just right in your hands so you can't tell me that that experience isn't worth the extra cost.
Even among hotels, they know the range of what's quality and what is not, and if you compare the flatware in Vegas at say Crockford's Resorts World or Wynn with what they provide at say Treasure Island you'll know what I mean.

Is MDawg doing anything Vegas related for March Madness? I’m sure there are events tailored for high rollers?
Have your hosts contacted you about the November F1 race yet?
I watched (only because I had a bet from DraftKings) the F1 race from Bahrain. Perhaps the most boring sporting event ever. Max Verstappen was ahead by 10 -15 seconds throughout the second half of the race. No one challenged him. The announcers made a big deal when the 14th place car overtook the 13 th place car. My bet was on a top 10 finish by Bottas. When I turned it on he was in 9th. He finished 8th because a car ahead of him had engine trouble. No passing by him. No one passed him. If you watch NASCAR there is tons of passing.

I've never been into March Madness per se because I'm not into basketball other than maybe the NBA finals.
F1, the casinos haven't declared who will get what yet.
We've watched a Nascar race live, and for us it was about turning your head back and forth monotonously until pretty much the final lap where everyone stands up to see who is going to win. I assume F1 will be at least more interesting than that.

I have been to two NASCAR races and they were quite different. The first one was at Charlotte Motor Speedway and I sat in the stands with the locals. Other than the noise it was enjoyable but way too long. The second NASCAR race I went to was in Las Vegas where I sat in a casino box. The noise level was better since I was further from the track but for me the event would have been better at home in front of the TV. I really doubt I will go to another major race as I prefer going to a smaller track where you get to watch many much shorter races.

I took younger son to Martinsville for a race. It was great. We went to all the pre race events. I bought expensive seats which were high up. As opposed to hockey/basketball/baseball where you pay more for lower seats. You can see entire track from those seats. Martinsville has boatloads of bumps, crashes, passes so it’s pretty entertaining.
As much as I enjoyed the experience, I’m not yearning to go back. It is logistically a pain.

I’ll tag along. 2 separate sessions at Del Lago playing Pai Gow. Wifey played with me 1st session. She was even and I ended up $60. Second session won $40. Played the few machines that I can mini AP and won another $40.
In laws who took us MORE than made up for my little win. They each qualify for a free room. We each get $20 food credit which there almost covers a meal. Plus my earned points paid for the chocolate croissants for breakfast.
It’s over an hour drive but I LOVE NON SMOKING!
Dealer made 3 hand setting mistakes. Two turned losses for me into pushes! The other made no difference.
RIDICULOUSLY weak house ways there as well. 2,5,5,6,6,8,9
They play 8,9 in the low hand! Turned my Q high Pai Gow into a push.

I've seen $10 craps there on Mon-Thurs., so those are the best days (or nights) to get on that, but it isn't guaranteed whatsoever. Maybe the place picks up traffic after dinner and they raise the minimums to $15 and open a $25 table too. They have $15 BJ at one or two tables, but it's usually full so impossible to get on if you wanted to.
I'd wear a mask at the tables if they're full, or skip going altogether. It's red state area and people just don't seem to care, but the employees do.

Rumor has it the big Dawg just bought a new watch. A Patek Philippe Tourbillion. It was sold on line by auction. Did you pay the $5.8 million in cash?
Ok…. What made that watch nearly $6,000,000 as opposed to the usual $100,000+?

I actually tried to get one of those when they first came out in 2013, the Patek Sky Moon Tourbillon, and the original retail on them was $1.2M
Why does this watch cost $1.3 million? It’s complicated
and they were available for under a million, as low as $700K at one point.
I posted about the Patek 6002 here at WOV in fact, and someone commented that it looked like a "toy watch" that you might find in the old SkyMall magazine.
I lost interest trying to buy one, and now look, $5.8M at auction, and at Chrono24 they are asking $7-8M trying to ride on the coattails of that recent auction.
The watch has "12 complications—making it a 'Grand Complication,' including a tourbillon, minute repeater, sky chart and perpetual calendar. The sky chart on the back of the watch shows the evening sky in whatever region you happen to be in, while the moon-phase display shows you whether the moon that night is a crescent or full.
The watch took seven years to develop and make, and the engraving alone takes more than 100 hours. The minute repeater has a chime that’s tuned to sound like cathedral bells."
In general, tourbillons make a watch very expensive (I own now a half dozen tourbillons), and add a minute repeater and the value of a watch goes up even more (I have just one minute repeater). Combine a tourbillon with a minute repeater and you have an even more expensive watch, combine the tourbillon and minute repeater with additional complications such as the perpetual calendar (I have a number of those), and the value goes up even more. None of these complications by the way, is available on a Rolex, making Rolex actually pretty low end compared to these "complicated" watches.

What is interesting about tourbillons is they add value to a fine timepiece basically only because of craftsmanship and time it takes to design and build one. Functionally - tourbillons are no longer needed.
The original purpose of a tourbillon was to give the earliest wristwatches the ability to tell time accurately no matter what angle they were at on your wrist. Before wrist watches were invented, pocket watches were all that was available as far as portable time pieces, and a pocket watch is intended to be held at the same angle, hanging down from a chain, at most all times, other than when briefly lifted and opened to check the time. The design in an antique pocket watch maintains complete accuracy only when in one position, hanging down.
The first wrist watches were basically compact pocket watches, and they couldn't retain accuracy when moved around at different angles while a person was walking, moving his arms, raising his arms, so the tourbillon was the invention that brought accuracy to wrist watches. A tourbillon enables a wrist watch to compensate for differences in its angle, and retain complete accuracy.
Today, a tourbillon is entirely superfluous as there are mechanical watches that are completely accurate without them, but nevertheless a tourbillon (along with other complications) remains the ne plus ultra of watch design that is built into some of the most expensive wrist watches of the modern age.

Maybe I just haven’t noticed, but do you only play one game type in a day? Like no DD BJ, get a snack then crush some baccarat?

A $6 million dollar watch would probably cost about $60,000 per year to insure !
Whenever I’ve scheduled jewelry it always seems to cost about 1% of the insured value per year

Yes! if you're getting bad stiff hands all day (or night), the count doesn't matter much.

SooPoo, yes, certainly, there have been times when I've jumped from BlackJack to Baccarat (or vice versa), but not too many sessions when I have done that. For one thing, I don't think they'll reserve both a BlackJack and a Baccarat table for you, although you may jump to any empty table and ask immediately that it be reserved, and as long as there are public tables available nearby for other players, and you don't already have another table for that same game reserved, they will change that public table to private right then and there for you.

Yes! and the times I thing about such things too, are when I read about someone buying say a $30M home - even in California the property tax comes to more per month than most peoples' mortgages.
Well, let's hope this guy doesn't end up like most lottery winners - dead, bankrupt or incarcerated within 5 years.

There are a number of new Rolexes for 2023.
New Rolex watches 2023
The new Daytona
has a new movement, caliber 4131, "it incorporates a number of the major innovations that Rolex has brought to its movements, including the Chronergy escapement to reduce energy loss (among other advantages); Paraflex shock absorbers to protect the heart of the movement; and an optimized ball bearing to enhance self-winding.
This calibre features a new aesthetic for the brand: a cut-out oscillating weight and, on the bridges, an exclusive Rolex Côtes de Genève decoration – a reinterpretation of an iconic finishing in traditional Swiss watchmaking,"
and slightly revised dial, and edging on the Cerachrom model bezels in the same metal as the case. Some people are already commenting on that this stainless steel edging will lead to easy scratching of a bezel that was previously all Cerachrom.
Also, for the first time, the platinum Daytona will have a transparent case back - up until now, if you saw a Rolex with an exhibition back you knew it was fake.
There is also a new titanium 42mm Yachtmaster, new versions of the Skydweller, and new versions of GMT Master II, and new dials for the Oyster Perpetual 36 and 41. Also an entirely new Rolex, the 1908.
That image you posted above is one of the new colorful dials available for the Oyster Perpetual 36, 41 or Day Date 36.
I believe that one model, the Milgauss, was flat out discontinued.
Earlier this year they came out with the new versions of the Day Date 36 and 40, which included getting rid of the smooth bezel on the platinum Day Date 40
(my DD 40 platinum on the far left)
and offering only a fluted or diamond bezel.
I still remember when I posted my Day Date 40 and AxelWolf stepped in to say that it was a "fake" which pretty much sums up his eagerness to comment on things about which he knows nothing.
The first "real" effect of these new Rolex models, and discontinuing the prior versions, was that dealers started asking absurd prices in the past few days for the older versions, with no takers as far as I know. Prices will probably settle down, and over all, I am not sure that the prices for all of the prior versions will even necessarily go up, they may go down, because there were a lot of the old models out there not like there is any limited supply.

Just because it deserves a post of its own, here is the new platinum Daytona with its platinum edged bezel
and exhibition back.
The rotor is 18K gold, which provides an interesting offset in a platinum watch.

I really like the new GMT. I’m in Barcelona and stopped by one boutique store and an AD store. Supposedly, they’re completely out of inventory except for undesirable models. They’re pretty blunt in telling me that I need to buy their expensive junk models before I am blessed with an opportunity to buy a sports model. This is the type of disgusting behavior which is turning me off from purchasing more Rolexes.

Is buying one of these high end watches like buying a car?
You can put a small ($3k?) deposit down using a credit card but the final purchase must be cash?
Do they have a ‘finance department’ that will try to get you to take out a loan?
Is there an MSRP that is actually never the real price you will pay?
Do they take trade ins (like in the USA) that allow sales tax savings?
What kind of warranty comes with a new Rolex? Do they try and sell some sort of extended warranty?
