I go to casinos..all over the Eastern US when i am traveling for business. Biggest night i had was in Omaha of all places...had a great run at the crap table that started with $200 and when i cashed out had to show ID for the cashout, was only midnight so sat at the black jack table and when left the table at close to 3AM had to again show ID..great freaking night that will prolly never happen again!!! BTW, strictly a craps/blackjack guy...craps always first Quote

I seem to have good luck there, but if i am there it is usually on a weeknight, sometime only 1 crap table open, and sometime i have seen a $50 minimum ...i be a pass line and come better..but i aint putting $50 on the line to start my night..that means i got two numbers most likely, and $400 on the table if i want to max my odds.....no thanks. I guess they figure thay get a ton of uneducated money that does not understand odds and the role of maxing out on them plays...but it is a solid no for me. And then blackjack...too many 6-5 tables in that place, have to hunt down the 3-2 tables and sometimes wait for a spot to open at the $25 tables, which is what i like to play. Understand the industry has gone don the 6-5 path..it sucks but you can still find 3-2 tables if you hunt them out at the casino you are in. 1 Quote

I’ve thrown in the towel on blackjack, unless I’m up huge from poker i think I played two hundred dollar hands at Borgata and had 19 on both and lost them both and called it a day ??? Good for the comps though. Mgm/Borgata tied together now Quote

BTW, strictly a craps/blackjack guy...craps always first Why do you have to show ID when you cash out? I can understand why for high stakes gambling and tax reasons but for the small to medium gamblers what is the purpose of being IDed when cashing out? Quote

Johnny Hammersticks Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 I went to Vegas for 7 days and probably spent 2 hours actually gambling (not counting the sports book). It was a long time ago, but I won around $900 playing Caribbean Stud poker at Turning Stone. Four 9s. If I do go to a casino nowadays, I walk in with $200 cash and I’m done when/if it’s gone. 1 Quote

I’ll go to Vegas, and maybe spend a roll of quarters. Not my thing. My wife will play a little black jack, but I prefer the shows. I prefer to hang out by the beautiful pools subsidized by the gamblers. Quote

njbuff Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 I have been to many casinos, but my favorite is the Seneca-Niagra. I love that casino. I win a little here and a little there, but I am one of the sane ones that wins even a little something and then quits for the night. Quote

2020 Our Year For Sure Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 I play poker somewhat regularly, Parx and Sugarhouse in the Philly area and Borgata in AC. I'm not real big on table games like blackjack etc This was my biggest win https://deepstacks.blog.theborgata.com/2017/06/22/event-10-aaron-friedman-takes-trophy-4314/ 1 1 Quote

Who were these people? It was a Tuesday afternoon. Why are you here? Unlike Vegas with all kinds of things to do....it’s just a big building with gambling. It did nothing for me other than they did have bars and I wasn’t driving. Quote
