116. With Mike Stefanidis - M Resort, December 4-8, 2025

  • ZorkFest 2025!
  • M Resort was nice. Nothing bad to say about it, except for the terrible cashier situation. Not enough employees.
  • As we had done last year, Josh Duffy and I taught craps.
  • I had a little to much to drink at Planet Hollywood, but was able to sober up enough for Podcasters After Dark.

110. With Mike Stefanidis - Bally's, June 3-6, 2022

 

  • I played in the World Series of Poker for the first time: $1500 Omaha 8.
  • I didn't cash, and just missed the second day by about an hour.
  • Our friend Fire-Bet Phil from Harrah's Southern California drove to Vegas to meet us. He played some craps with us, and ate with us at Gordon Ramsay Steak at Paris.
  • We went to Mohegan Sun - Virgin (formerly Hard Rock) for the first time and really didn't like it.
  • We were losing terribly this trip until the final night when we hit two huge back-to-back craps hands at Bellagio. And Mike and I were the ones that rolled them.
