$4.08 for a regular-sized cup of black coffee at the bakery. At least have the courtesy to [censored] me for an even number.

LOL well technically 4.08 is an even number. Divisible by 2 [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] 2.04 is the result too :P

LOL @ paying more for a cup of coffee than a gallon of gas, and the gas will get you further nowadays.

Matt - next time get coffee at the chocolate shop, its much better and worth the jacked up price. Give me a perfect Illy or Lavaza and I'll pay $6 without complaining.

Why do you find cup holders annoying? Because they force you to place your glass in a specific location?

they get in the way of my giant chip stack.

Cupholders take up about 5% more space on the table than a bottle or glass would. If that's a bother then you have re-defined "nit".

glass of single malt scotch goes on top of the giant stack to protect it.

What single malts do they serve at the B? Inquiring minds need to know...

Also, TT, do you know brunson and sklansky? You seem to speak of them with quite some authority.

thanks

I know David in a hello, goodbye, and call me when you have a serious question kind of way (and I have - David gives great advice). I know Mason and Mat rather well (I have never discussed this before on 2+2). I have been introduced to Doyle but I don't know him, however I have met a few people who have worked with him over the years on his sports betting schemes, people who have played with him lots over a many year period, people who used to play in his game in Vegas back when 40/80 was the equivelent of 400/800 today would be, etc. Its a tiny poker community, intelligent people tend to flock together - not sure why I am allowed in the flock though [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

As for the Wynn question, it wont happen at this stage - its too late (if they move the poker room to the center of Encore in the middle of the pit and expand the size it might be able to expand). Its still the #2 room in tow for significant limits which is a good thing, but keep in mind Commerce has more tables running on a Monday morning @7am than the 4 major Vegas rooms combined on a Friday evening. Vegas poker is vastly overrated.

thanks a lot,

one more question, can you clarify the following statement?

"

Encore? i'm at the wynn a lot (granted just the buffet and poker room), but i'm not familiar with "encore" or the rest of the pits. where is "encore".

thanks

Look up. Encore is the new hotel tower going up very near the original Wynn tower, and it also includes more casino space. Originally it was just supposed to be Wynn's second tower, but they've given it a name and now claim it will be operated more like a separate resort.
