Wynn, stevesbets, shrew and cf tourney
After I woke up around 1 PM PST, I hung out in the room for a bit, showered and got in touch with a friend of mine from home, stevesbets (aka Steve Jacobs). He’s staying at the Wynn with two of his UPenn friends. It turns out they were going to spend some time by the pool, so I went over with them and met up with them at the Wynn pool. It’s such a pain in the ass to go to any other hotel in this town because they want to see your room key to get on an elevator, to get into the pool area, etc. Of course, I only have a Bellagio room key, but I’m an invited guest of someone staying at the Wynn. But there isn’t a good system for verifying that I am actually going to visit someone — the only way that I could get in is to have Steve come out to the desk by the entrance, but obviously he doesn’t have his phone in the pool so I don’t have a way to contact him when I’m standing at the desk. So I basically had to argue with the guy at the desk for a few minutes, then I finally convinced him that I was going to gamble blackjack at the poolside cabana (obv I won’t gamble blackjack or any other table game). He’s apparently allowed to let in people who say they’re going to gamble. Anyway, I hate going to other hotels because of the restrictions.
After the pool, the four of us headed back up to the suite to play online, eat and hang out. I took a few pictures:
They made dinner reservations for around 10 pm PST at a nice restaurant, but I didn’t have anything except my bathing suit and some athletic shorts with me, so I had to head back to the Bellagio. I briefly met up with hazards21, MrSmokey1, Ozzy, Justin and some other guy at Cafe Bellagio, but they were finishing just as I arrived. We went back up to the room for a bit, then Ozzy, Justin and MrSmokey1 headed over to Bushman’s house. I’m pretty tired, so I’m going to hang out here, maybe get some room service, then go to sleep.
Congrats to everyone who has made it through Day 1A or 1B and good luck to those playing on 1C or 1D.
