Anybody been to Reno lately? I am planning a short visit (2-3 days, mid-week) in mid-September. I’m looking for $5 min. tables, at least 3, 4 5X odds.  Any suggestions?
Cheers,
Alan Shank

Alan-  First off- what a trip…Plenty of $5 action as you inquired in town.  I arrived on a Wends. and slowed down the play as $10 min. hit the tables for the weekend crowd.

I am a bit superstitious when it comes to tables and when I’m rollin lots of numbers I tend to stay put.  GSR is where it all started and is where I finished on Sun. closing out my 5 day session On a $100 buy in each session and closing it down in a monster 45 minute roll produced by a young Asian fellow that could do no wrong.  I usally dont bet with the shooter, but after this kid pass lined 3 times in 8 throws I began to salivate.  All Aboard!!!  Before I go on lets just say there is the Peppermill if you can handel the decor/colors.  Too much for me, The Nugget was good as well.  I stayed away from downtown area as the clientel is not my cup of tea, a little seady. So all in all ,you’ll find plenty of $5 play which is all I hunt out for and the occassional $3 which Boomtown up I-80 has, nice spot as well.  On with the play @ GSR.  Table play looking down the casino from the fountain wall I played the left hand table shooting LS1, nice high arc with an all 7’s opening set I bet any 7 hop and was slaying em’ I had a few good toss’s every outing w/H10,H8 facing me, and averaged 2 sessions daily. Regardless of my play if I 7’d out 3 times I walked away.I play in the early hours of the day, 5-8:30a.m.  I do not drink while shootin, or show to the tables on a hangover or lack of rest.  I always started with $100 buy in with each session. Wends. mid morning session colored up $300 late noon up $65. Thurs. no play. had to entertain the little lady, but she could tell I was chomping at the bit. Friday three sessions, morning up $160, an hour after breakfast, $200 ,12:30 colored in with $45 up/  Sat. moring play the crew was calling George , gotta tip those boys for sure. Had one session that yeilded me $285. Later that night lost my $100 buy, was drinking with some ol friends, hence the reason for not drinking and gambling.  I loose and make stupid bets. So, the grand play for the week was that Sun. Morning session with a fellow named Long. $100 buy in I doubled my buy in another Big one as the kid threw like a pro.  45 minutes later we both colered in he crushed them for about $1500 on a $300 buy in and I walked away up $685.  What a great time and I love that particular table, why because I threw on the other two and there action was nothing like the table I mentioned.  The dice rolled beautiful shootin for LS side. Sorry for the long wind, but it was an outstanding weekend that recieved no pressure as I set those bones to my hearts content and tipped the crew to keep that way.  I will be back!
  Cheers my friend and Best of Luck to you.

Thanks, Mark, for the info and the nice trip report. I will be heading to Reno September 13, probably staying at Harrah’s.
