Let me preface this by saying that I have asked for and been given permission to link to my trip reports on my forum.
I will share my most recent Vegas trip.
Thanks to the Admins for letting me do this.
Be forewarned...there is lots of colour, sparkles, smileys, pictures etc.
Put on your sunglasses.

In a separate thread I will share the Cuba trip I just returned from.

Cool trip report, fun read! Also, great hit at The D, may I respectfully inquire whether you finished ahead (just considering your play, not expenses/purchases) on the trip overall?

Hi, Blonde 4 Ever.... It's 2:30am here and the cat woke me up, so I'll finish your post later. As always, I hope you made it to a craps table. I only started your post and will comment later on the casinos with rooms for those with diminished agility.
Ross Dress for Less... in Vegas. Wow. I keep forgetting real people live in Vegas.

Mission...I was only half way through my trip when I hit the $1500. I still had another 5 days to go!
So no, I didn't come home ahead, but I did come home with half of it, to start saving for a spring trip.
I am OK with that. There have been trips when I came home with an empty wallet.
Flea - Royal Flusher attempted to teach me craps one trip but it just didn't stick. That coupled with the fact that you have to stand all the time, which is painful for my bad foot, is enough to make me give it up.
Thanks for reading and Merry Christmas everyone!

I understand but you only have to stand when you are the shooter, and you can pass the dice if you want since a casino can never force you to shoot the dice. Many casinos in town allow stools at the craps table as long as its kept orderly.

Oh...I didn't realize that. It seems every time I look at a craps table everyone is standing. They always look like they are having the most fun in the casino!

That is because they all enjoy seeing me lose!Quote: Blonde4everThey always look like they are having the most fun in the casino!
Places like the Venetian might frown on stools at a craps table, but Sams Town sure doesn't or perhaps I should say didn't since its been some time for me.
In reality, most craps players are "Right Bettors", that is they are PASS LINE rather then DON'T PASS LINE bettors who are betting WITH the dice rather than AGAINST the dice. Therefore most players win or lose together. Some casinos are even setting up Social Gaming Slot Machines but as you know, I rarely play slots and never play slots as a group.
