I am flying to Las Vegas on Sunday the 16th for March Madness and will fly home on Monday the 24th. I like to play the tables and hit the Sportsbook. I will mostly play Blackjack (single deck), Pai Gow and 3 Card Poker. I will bet the NCAA and NBA while in the book.
Here comes the "contest" part:
1) How many cigars am I taking?
2) How many cigars will I smoke?
Bonus) How many cigars will I give away?
Here comes the gambling part:
The winner(s) of the contest will fare as well as I fare in Vegas, if I win in Vegas you will get some fantastic cigars and if I lose in Vegas, well let's just say, you'll wish I would have sent you a Zodian.
Just for fun question:
How many drinks will I consume while there?
How many rum drinks?
How many beers?
EDIT: I do, believe it or not, drink more than just rum and beer so the first question is TOTAL drinks in Vegas. Those that have already answered, if they wish, may edit their answers.
Contest opens now and will closed on Sunday the 16th at noon PST. One entry per person and no edits allowed.
Have fun..............

I know my math doesn't add up for the first 3 but I'm betting you'll smoke some that you buy there..
2) You will smoke 17 cigars
Bonus you will be giving away 10 cigars
You will consume 50 drinks. 30 beer and 20 rum
Drinks total 80, 50 beers, 30 rum drinks. Good luck, hopefully you won't get stuck with the light bill.
2. 25
3. 13 Drinks 30 beers, and 15 rum drinks= 45. Send on the zodians
1) How many cigars am I taking?magical 20 count, so 30
2) How many cigars will I smoke?33
Bonus) How many cigars will I give away?hmm...8
How many drinks will I consume while there?I dont know how you are gonna count this...so 72
How many rum drinks?31
How many beers?24
Enjoy Todd and be safe!
15 cigars brought.
How many will you smoke? I think you will average 3 a day so my second answer is:
24 cigars smoked.
Now, since I know you are one generous SOB I think you are going to give away as many cigars as you smoke so my third answer is the same as my second answer
24 cigars given away.
In terms of drinking I assume you will drink 12 drinks a day and one third will be rum drinks, one third will be beer, and one third will be something else. So my final answer is
96 drinks total including 32 rum drinks, 32 beers, and 32 other drinks.
Now if someone will PLEASE help me get the image of Todd sitting by the pool in his speedos drinking a girly drink with an umbrella in it OUT OF MY head, I will be in your dept.
1) How many cigars am I taking? 65
2) How many cigars will I smoke? 45
Bonus) How many cigars will I give away? 20
How many drinks will I consume while there? 90
How many rum drinks? 25
How many beers?25

Have yet to smoke a cigar.
Vegas is almost out of beer. (I won't say how many but since yesterday was St. Patty's Day I almost turned myself green drinking beer. And no not any disgusting green beer but the were a "few" Irish Car Bombs)
Got on a heater on a Three Card Poker table where my first hand was a flush and out of my first 20 hands all but 3 contained either a flush, straight or pair. Ended up winning or pushing about 85% of my hands.
As per the drinking, i am sure that there were a few mornings where you wish you had drank a few less, but then again, it seemed like a good idea at the time...and that given you are there to have fun, and not learn any lessons...you tried again that day.
As per the # of rum, beer and 'other'....
.... "numbers are like colors. You know that there are no colors in the physical world. Light comes in various wavelengths, but wavelength is not what we call color (a banana still looks yellow under different lighting conditions, where the wavelengths it reflects are completely changed). Color is an attribute created by the V4 area of our brain. This area computes the relative amount of light at various wavelengths across our retina, and uses it to compute the reflectance of objects (how they reflect the incoming light) in various spectral bands. This is what we call color, but it is purely a subjective quality constructed by the brain."

Therefore, what number of drinks did you really consume? Why does it really matter, so long as you had fun!
Great contest!
Bro did you make it out alive?
