LV: Can you say: Buffet?

Enough sleep: I'll sleep when I'm dead.

When you think of Vegas and food and wine, one thing that should come to mind is the buffet. Vegas is famous for these huge, and inexpensive, spreads. I just stumbled out one of the most popular--and biggest of Vegas's buffets, the Garden Court Buffet at the Main Street Casino. It's a football field-sized room of nearly every type of food and drink imaginable. For awhile I debated between scrambled eggs and pancakes, pizza and salad, or pot roast with mashed potatoes--then said what the heck, and had em all! They can be dangerous, though; I went back for seconds, loitered for a bit around the desserts section, grabbed an extra banana (for the potassium)...then couldn't find my table. When they seat you, they could give you a GPS system to avoid that!

Anyway, off to Binion's Gambling Hall, where they have Texas Holdem tournaments every day at 10:00 a.m., 2:00 p.m., and 8:00 p.m. (Is this a great country, or what?) The 8:00 p.m. tourney tonight has a guaranteed prize pool of $10,000. To paraphrase Cowboy Troy, I'm gonna git me some of that!
