WoW, What a sportsbook

I am still stuck in Ely, Nevada for one more day. I decide that tonight I might go over to the sportsbook and watch a few games. Now this is Ely, so I wasn't expecting to have a skybox like they have at MGM Grand. Instead I found that their sportsbook is a little small. Yes, this is the sportsbook:

Did I mention this is the only sportsbook in Ely, Nevada.




Today I visited the most colorfull casino in Ely:

Yes, that is the famous Jailhouse casino. I decided to play a little video poker at the bar. I start by playing a Deuces wild game at $.25 so I could get a free beer. Now at the Jailhouse casino bar they don't seem to have a bartender. At first I thought maybe it was closed, but no, eventually "the" casino employee came over and gave me a beer. That beer ended up costing a hundred dollars so I do what any brilliant gambler does while playing terrible video poker games. I lose $200 more playing a bad $1 Deuces Bonus game. Once again it is not the $300 loss that bothers me. I just am having a real bad streak now where I can't hit a hand better that 4 of a kind on Deuces. I believe I am now the number one high roller at the Jailhouse casino.

Today: -$300
Year to date: -$12,210
