Thanks to all who contributed answers to my earlier question.
Diamond Lil’s! Fantastic place. Never realized how horrible the staff is at the two casinos outside Chicago (Harrah’s and Trump). Those people in Renton certainly know how to treat poker players. Best floor managers I’ve ever seen: friendly, attentive, professional, and completely on top of everything going on in the room. Empty seats were filled instantly. Chips brought right to the table for you as you sat down. Gracious, friendly dealers who always knew exactly what they were doing. This was the best poker-playing experience I’ve ever enjoyed. Yes, it was nice that I won both nights, but that’s not what I’m talking about. Seriously, compared to this Seattle cardroom, players are treated like so much dog meat on the boats I frequent.
Also enjoyed the players…I shouldn’t forget them. Very nice folks out there, and some good, solid players…but very few rocks and just enough real gamblers to make for a couple of exciting nights with terrific action. If I hadn’t had to suffer through a two and a half hour stretch with no wins I could have had an entirely satisfactory hourly rate. I did manage to cover plane fare and hotel, so the trip was free. Got to figure out how to get out of Pike’s Market, though, with out spending $200 on salmon.
Thanks again to all—I’ll be back!

Yes, Diamond Lil's is fabulous. Glad you had a good time! On side note, on the WPT Cruise Tournament show this past Wednesday, I noticed that the MILF dealer in a few hands was the same dealer I'd seen at Diamond Lil's a few months ago. I have no idea if she's a regular at DL, or what, but it was pretty neat recognizing her. See ya!

MILF???
That means something, I know, when high school guys use it to describe a very attractive woman who's got kids in the school, in which case the "M" stands for "mother." So what does the "M" stand for in this usage?
BTW, are you referring, by any chance, to the blonde whose name, I think, was Tracey?????
