I think I met the nicest/most honest woman when I was playing roulette. This guy and his girlfriend were playing at the same table and he kept putting $2 on red 3, I guess it was their anniversary or something, anyway it came up twice, no way it's going to come up again, right? He goes to the bathroom and accidentally leaves 5 chips on red 3. The dealer is obligated to remove his chips if he leaves the table and forgets to collect them after she has paid out and his gf can't play with his chips, so the lady sitting next to me puts down 5 of her chips for him on red 3 and then five of her own. Guess what came up? RED THREE. AND what the lady does is ask the dealer to give her only what comes from her five chips and pay HIM the money from her other five chips that she put down for him. So basically the guy made $175 on a trip to the bathroom!!

You should try partypoker.com Its free and a great place to learn how to play most forms of poker, including texas holdem, 7 card stud, omaha.

Poker scares me. When I'm putting out so much of my own money on a hand I want to make sure I know what I'm doing. Sometimes I get nervous enough that counting out the freaking numbers while playing blackjack becomes hard to do. lol. Quick! What's 7+5??!?! I doubt I'd have the ability to remember all the rules in a game of poker.

CRAPS IS THE NEXT BEST THING TO VEGAS AND ROULETTE.
one time me and my uncle at Ceasar's on the craps table
and it was my uncle's first time playing craps and he rolled sevens for one straight hour and we both made over $800.00 that one night.
Plus we got comped very well by the hotel. best experience ever

Craps seems like a game to be leery of. I mean it's called CRAP, how good could it be? It seems like asking for trouble to play that game. Maybe next time I go to Vegas I'll watch a few games and try to figure it out like I figured out roulette...

Never got to enjoying/liking roulette, just too many hands all over the place and by the time the wheel is spun, im bored out of my mind.

Hehehe. Once you learn poker, you will NEVER play blackjack again in Vegas! Its not quite as difficult as people make it out to be. Plus there's the whole conversation factor of poker. And you get more play time for your money. At a table of 10 people with small/big blinds. You get to see 8 free hands without putting in a cent. $100 bux lasts like you 30 min in blackjack compared to hours in poker.

I like it because you can sit there and play for a few hours and enjoy the free drinks and chat up with your friends while you're waiting for everyone to place bets and the returns are big if you land a number... Slots bore me because the returns are too slow, although I did make $100 off two nickels I found in the bottom of my purse. Thank goodness for the ticket printing things, or else I would have had to wait for 2000 nickels to fall out of the machine!

The only thing close to slots that I've touched is Video Poker. Actually I did play nickel slots at Belagio while waiting in line to play poker. Free drinks yumm...

This is why I dislike Blackjack. The 30min at Blackjack to hour of Poker ratio. That's what I've been trying to say despite what the odds are for each game. I've been trying to point out that you have a better chance AND more fun at the same time on other games than blackjack.

Maybe I suck at poker???
