Re: Wannabe pros and ESPN
I was playing at the Wynn earlier this week and some girl had her boytoy sitting behind her. No, he wasn't offering advice. Just a tool. Her tool.

Re: Normal cashout time for Party?
Never had it be more than a couple of hours. Meanwhile they'll send you the standard "we're received your request and it's pending an internal review..." My withdrawls have always come through.
