Roadtrip, Day 7: Albuquerque to Orange County

...and what's most importantly, is I ain't gotta fuck with Ray-Ray's broke ass no more. (I listened to a lot of Kanye on the ride home.)

I checked out Route 66 Casino, on my way out of Albuquerque. Seems like a nice enough place. I think it's brand new, and not overly large. They've got a room dedicated to poker, though they were still tidying up some of the loose construction ends in there. It was noon on a Wednesday, but I was still asked if I wanted to get my name on a list. I was surprised to see there were actually a few names on the $4/$8 limit, half kill list, but I didn't want to stick around. Their NL holdem game has $1/$2 blinds with a $50 min, $200 max buy-in. Sounds like fun.

The gift shop wasn't selling any KEM cards, but they were giving away cancelled decks from the blackjack tables. I snagged two without really inspecting how marked the decks were. Oops. One deck might be usable.

Not a whole lot to see on the ride home. It'll be nice to sleep in my own bed again. And not have to drive hundreds of miles tomorrow.

Trip odometer: 2795 miles, and done.
