Vegas Winners

We planned on only running 5, but Eddie accidentally ran 8.3 miles by missing the turnaround and so I decided to increase my run up to 6. By 12p, we began driving to Vegas. We started our trip with the intent of collecting Eddie's winnings from the Superbowl with a long walk from Palazzo to Aria in 90 degree temperatures, but Eddie wanted to teach me how to play Caribbean poker when we returned to our hotel. After two hands, the student became the teacher as I had 4 queens followed by another hand with 3 queens, which lead to a $1000 win in just a few minutes. From there, the winnings continued the next day with Eddie's picks on sports. With roulette, our numbers 6 and 27 led to more wins. The wins continued as we checked into Encore where they offered us a 2600 sq. ft. suite upgrade. The room was spectacular and the views were amazing. While we didn't plan too much on this trip, we did partake in the CSI Experience, where we acted as detectives to solve a case, enjoyed declicious meals with our most memorable dinners at Zine's and Sinatra's, and also attended Phantom of the Opera at the Venetian.
