Day 2

We went next door to the Paris Casino for their champagne brunch at Le Village Buffet, got there a little early and they only charged us for the regular breakfast buffet. The food was outstanding, we could have gone back two or three times and still not have tried everything they had to offer.

The afternoon was spent shopping for clothes and other items that were lost in my luggage. Later in the afternoon, we met up with Fonzi and his wife, lkport, AlabamaXslim, Mainstick, Sharbear and Hooch at the I-bar in the Rio and proceed to the Sky Villas at The Palms for the Cake Party.

The Cake Party was a lot of fun and the Cake Girls were the main attraction. They had some promotional items that were giving away hats, playing cards, and mini chip sets. Each Sky Villa has a pool and some of the guys decided to go swimming with girls.

We stayed for a couple of hours and few of us wanted to play some live poker. We decided to meet at O'sheas for their 9:00 pm tournament. Normally, a drive from the Rio to the strip takes less than 5 minutes, traffic was horrible and took over 20 minutes to get to the O'sheas. We missed the tournament and decided not to sign up as alternatives. Sharbear and Hooch, Owab and I decided to eat at Harrah's buffet and then catch a tournament at Bill's Gambling Hall at 11:00 PM. Arrived at Bill's with plenty of time to register but was informed that the tourney would not go down, it was cash games only. I started feeling jet lagged and knew I wouldn't make it for a midnight tournament, said goodnight to Sharbear and Hooch and called it an evening.
