Default Sleeping in the car at AC and Vegas -ever do it

I know there are a few people out there who can't afford for the night. So I was thinking of sleeping in the car of parking lot. Do the cops or hotel manager care?

And yes this is a really stupid question. [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Just remember, if you sleep in your car in Las Vegas at this time of year, there is more than a small chance that you'll die.

find some off strip hotel (or downtown) for $30-40 a night, its [censored] hot out this time of year

due to the fact you dont want to spend money on a hotel getting robbed isnt much of an issue because it would be -EV for teh robber as he would get little to nothing

people in geneneral in poker rooms smell - adding this into the mix isnt going to help the crowd

And since the robber is making a mistake, the fundamental theorem of poker says that we benefit from the mistake and that makes it +EV to sleep in the car.

OK - now that's funny! And at the same time shows you to be a true student of the game.

You can find a decent place in LV with a weekly rate under $250.

If you can't afford a cheap LV motel, you don't have the bankroll to play LV poker. Stay home and play online.
