    I think the point of my post was who would want to? Not me

    You do seem high or drunk, Pipes. I agree that Vegas is a shithole. It has lost its luster for me.

    Your words seem a little looser. Also, you dropped the full of bravado, frat boy superhero Pipes persona.

    Usually when drunk, people become far more arrogant on boastful

    It’s called self reflection

    If you want to waste some time you can search my post history and find I found myself in a similar mood in Las Vegas a year or two ago forget when maybe longer

    But Pipes is right about at least one thing.

    Being in a suite by yourself in Vegas does bring on destructive thoughts.

    20 years ago, famous uberdegen and poker fish "thyprez" somehow hit miracles to win a WSOP Main seat from Pokerstars. It came with a free hotel room at the lol Four Queens, plus some spending money.

    I was in Vegas at the same time, though not playing the Main (I had no interest in touranments then), and I also did not have my Vegas apartment yet. I was still an LA resident, a few months away from moving.

    I said to thyprez, "I'd like to stay and watch how the Main turns out for you, but I've run out of comp nights and I'm driving back to LA tongiht."

    He said, "Oh, take my room at the Four Queens!"

    I wasn't sure I wanted it because... well, it's the Four Queens. But being a Jew who loves free stuff, especially in Vegas, I considered it. I asked him, "But where will you sleep? Is this a 2-queen room or something?"

    "I'm getting a huge suite at Harrah's. It's $1200/night," he replied.

    This made no sense to me. He had a room at the Four Queens, which while admittedly a shithole, was close to the WSOP Main (which took place at Binion's). Why was he going all the way to Harrah's and spending $1200 for a suite?

    "I'm getting an expensive hooker there tonight," he told me. "I don't want to bring her to the Four Queens."

    "Oh, you don't have to impress a hooker," I told him. "She doesn't give a shit where you're staying, as long as you pay her and you aren't too much trouble. You shouldn't waste $1200 on a suite to impress a hooker."

    He then explained to me that I didn't understand.

    He said he needed the suite to get the full feeling of Vegas degeneracy. He said that being in a suite alone in Vegas tempts him to do bad and irresponsible things, and he wanted that feeling on this particular night.

    He wasn't the type of guy you could talk out of something like this. Even if I did talk him out of it, he'd just have lied to me and done it anyway.

    "You sure you're not gonna need this Four Queens room?", I asked him.

    "I'm sure," he replied. "I already have the Harrah's suite booked."

    And so it went. thyprez fucked a high-end hooker in a high-end Harrah's suite the night before the 2004 WSOP Main, and I slept at the Four Queens and cursed myself for being so niggardly.

    Yes, I said niggardly.

    RIP thyprez

    Pipes do you ever come to Vegas while the WSOP is going on?

    That's the time I'm most predictably there if you want to meet me. Otherwise I'm kinda sporadically in Vegas, without much notice. I was actually there a ton this fall, but now I'm dialing it back again.

    Let me know next time you will be there.

    Because he is young enough that I can talk to him honestly and tell him the truth about how business actually works and all he does is express interest because heÂ’s not in a position yet to push me to get in on the action or send traffic to his offer

    Two years ago I hired a similar guy that I met at the sauna who made me feel a similar way, he still works for me but he kind of sucks and everyone else always demands I fire him. HeÂ’s the type of kid to run up a big commission check one month then coast for two months, rebuild for three months then repeat. I wonÂ’t fire him though as he lives near me and always comes to my house to handle things when I tell him to and thatÂ’s valuable to me. He made $75k last year and didnÂ’t graduate high school. I actually didnÂ’t know that before I hired him, if I did I wouldnÂ’t have hired him but I didnÂ’t look into it or ask any questions

    ItÂ’s kind of pathetic if you think about it that I am so desperate for somebody to actually have interest in me that I do stuff like that

    It says a lot about my sick mental condition
    Brother Pipes, you sound clinically depressed. Have you tried therapy? Since you’re already paying someone to have an interest in you may as well pay a professional that could also help you no? After all part of what makes the Nicky Pipes lifestyle so amazing is it’s ability to consistently be iterating and improving upon itself right?

    I mean surely taking cold plunges, sunning balls, swimming in the ocean, and hitting saunas didn’t all happen overnight. Surely there’s an evolutionary component to the Nicky Pipes lifestyle.

    I only come to Vegas when I am paid a Large Sum of Money to do so

    If somebody offers me that opportunity during WSOP time I will do it and most likely feel the same way I always do here but IÂ’ll be richer which is important

    Brother this reads like day three of an Adderall binge, firing on all cylinders but becoming.more incoherent by the word.

    Have your fun but get the fuck outta there as quickly as possible.

    Brother you've seen the olds around here who have been or are still immersed in casino lifestyle; brother it's objectively some of the saddest representations of humanity I have ever seen.

    Decades of 'grinding' and contributing nothing to society leaves a man feeling empty inside, a life wasted on the promise of a pipe dream.

    Go for a drive through Red Rocks Canyon and feel alive brother.

    Last July I saw Druff in Vegas for my birthday during the WSOP. If you can, meet up with him as he is always nice.

    Gotta call B.S. on this. Jews don't pass on free meals. Not even if you're Worm, sharing a comp at the noodle bar.
