I was in the Bahamas for opening weekend of Atlantis - lost $4k the first night, wanted to jump off the roof, took my remaining $1k the next night and turned it into $55k but drank three bottles of Crystal in the process (ack!) and ended up walking away with $28k (minus the $485*3+tip).

The reason I knew it was $55k was because I vaguely remember asking the dealer to count my chips because I was too drunk to do it myself. It's never very good when people standing behind you watching you play have to help keep you upright. =)

I'm really wishing I would have taken the check they wanted to give me instead of the cash - I felt like a drug dealer declaring the more than $10k in cash, and I hated having to fill out the IRS form. (sigh)

On the bright side, I still get invites for 5-7 day comp'ed vacations.. ha ha ha
