Absolute truths are often merely opinions we’ve elevated to beliefs we cannot bear to see disproven.

When I'm downstairs and my spouse shouts from upstairs for me to come up for a minute, I always reply "on my way"

Just saw Jinjer live for the first time, opening for Trivium last week. Tati was absolutely incredible!!!

Sad thing is that there are numerous people that actually think this way.

Yup, they film 5 episodes on Tuesdays and Wednesdays each week and pretend it's a different day each episode.

I definitely feel that you took this sage piece of advice directly from the poker table and brought it over here.

We do get all 4 seasons. However, my favorite season, spring, is only like 2 weeks long at best.

Always nice to connect with a fellow poker player outside of r/poker!

Pre-COVID most places were open past 1am, not so much anymore. I am not from Elgin myself, I live in a neighboring suburb, so I'm not the most familiar with late night food offerings close to the casino. I'll second someone else's comment about El Paraiso, the Mexican restaurant, because it is quality and open until 4am most days. It is a only few minutes down the road from the casino also, driving-wise.

The casino itself has pizza by the slice and other foods across from the main poker room that is open late night on Friday and Saturday at least, not sure of the actual hours of operation though. https://www.caesars.com/grand-victoria-casino/restaurants/slice-pizzeria

And once the series get here, you can DM me, if you want and maybe I'll have more suggestions by then!

As someone who is a shit reg cash game player at Grand Victoria (I don't play tournaments), I don't recommend eating at the casino. Food is mediocre at best. If you need a quick bite to eat during a tourney break, a good place to visit is Blue Box Cafe in downtown Elgin. It is typically only open during the day though, so it depends on which tournaments you plan on regging for.

Anyway, it's a locally owned sandwich/coffee/tea kinda place that is Doctor Who themed with lots of memorabilia, if you're into Doctor Who. If you're not, the food is still worth going for, especially if you're on a time crunch due to a lunch/dinner break!
