I'm on vacation so I didn't have time to post the last few nights, therefore I'm posting this late as this occurred 3 days ago (Thurs 5/24/12).
We are in the northeast for a few days so we went to Atlantic City for a few hours on Thurday. First we parked at Trump Plaza and went out to the boardwalk. Then we went to Trump Taj Mahal where I lost $20 in roulette. Roulette is a casino game that players choose to place bets on either a single number or a range of numbers, the colors red or black, or whether the number is odd or even. To determine the winning number and color, the wheel is spun in 1 direction, then spins a ball in the opposite direction around a tilted circular track running around the the wheel. The ball eventually falls on to the wheel and into 1 of 38 colored and numbered pockets on the wheel.
Next we went to the newest casino, Revel. It officially opened May 25, 2012 with 6.2 million square foot on the beachfront on the boardwalk. It is located north of the Showboat Hotel and Casino. Revel is built on a 20-acre site with 1,000 feet of boardwalk frontage. Revel's hotel tower is the tallest structure in Atlantic City and the 2nd tallest in the state of New Jersey at 47 stories. After Revel, we grabbed a bite to eat; a crab cake and fried clams. Next we walked on the beach and played frisbee. Then we went back to Trump Plaza where Matt lost $20 in black jack. Black jack is another casino game where the player is dealt an initial 2 card hand with the option of drawing cards to bring the total value to 21 or less without exceeding it, so that the dealer will lose by having a lesser hand than the player or by exceeding 21.
Later on in the evening, we went to Philadelphia for cheesesteaks at Tony Luke's.
What did you do today?
