CalvinAyre.com is organizing a social in Vegas right on the strip on Friday night, August 27th, hosted by BodogBecky (me!). The purpose of this social is to bring the gaming forum community together and to have a lot of drinks and some fun in the VIP section of a nice club on CalvinAyre.com's dollar...all you have to do is RSVP at posterparty@gmail.com with your forum name, include that you’re Wizard of Vegas member, if you're bringing a significant other, and I’ll provide more specific information as the time gets closer. I sincerely hope you can make it!!

I'll be there, and would be happy to chat with any members. I will bring my backgammon and cribbage sets, should anybody care to challenge me.

Nice to meet you last night Becky, it was a really fun party! Although WOO managed to beat me in yet another prop bet when I said the waitress would know who the Vice President is. The waitress said Dick Cheney and the Wizard takes my money again.

Sorry Jim, I was almost stealing with that bet. Ask a young hot girl who the vice president is, and the chances are not good she is going to know.

Thanks for the party Becky! It was fun.

I sure hope The Wizard offered you odds on that bet. I wouldn't have expected a Tray Lizard to know the name of the Vice President, unless perhaps he was a big tipper. It wouldn't matter if the Tray Lizard was bright and inclined to political awareness either. You should have demanded steep odds.

I recently traveled and as my companion and I were settling into the room, she happened upon the Gideon Bible so I used this opportunity to propose one of the oldest foolish bets there is. Well, with Judges:16-19 right there we determined that Delilah summoned a man and had him cut Sampson's hair, but, as always, my companion never pays me the hundred dollars when she loses! When will I ever learn?

Oh my goodness, I can't believe you got hooked into a Wizard prop bet! Don't you know not to bet against him? See my trip report from the last meetup ... Nareed, I think you need to add this to your ironclad rules of Las Vegas.

Don't be silly. Beating the Wizard on a prop bet is a real Vegas challenge. You just have to figure out what bet to pick.

Over the years I have won exactly one prop bet every with WOO yet I do it again and again. To be fair here, he asked which side I wanted in the bet and I thought she'd know it. I immediately knew I was in trouble when a girl I knew who had met up with WOO and me didn't know the answer and had been a political science major!

Okay. It is ill-advised to bet against the Wizard if he offers you one side of the bet only. If you can take either side I say go for the challenge. (But he'll still beat you). Incidentally, I knew about the Vice President hook since we talked about that one at the Rampart meetup.

Soo nice to meet you too!! Have a look at my pictures and article from the night...I even mention the Wizard and his cribbage board. :)
