I enjoy craps and then black jack. My success measure is minimizing my loss per hour. I consider it entertainment. My last trip to Vegas really turned my off, service was horrible, prices were crazy and the vibe on the strip is ... well I wish I had a gun with me. I haven't been in Macau since before COVID. I enjoy Macau, the hotels are nice, no resort fees, free wifi and some hotels even have free mini-bars. But almost no craps tables, few blackjack tables but bacaraat as far as the eye can see. The casinos floors are so big you can see the curvature of the earth. Some amazing Portuguese restaurants and the sin in Macau is much better than Vegas. Plus it is just a 3 1/2 hour flight for me versus 14 to Vegas.
That, in a nutshell, is why I do my gambling downtown rather than on the Strip. Generally speaking, there's lower prices on food and lodging, lower table limits, and friendlier service. There are always cops roaming the Downtown area, too. If trouble breaks out, the authorities are there right away to address it.
The bill changer is the only machine that gives me a payout regularly. Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk
I'm with you on craps! It's such an engaging game, and I love the feeling of control it offers. Plus, the better odds make it even more exciting. Rolling those dice adds an extra layer of thrill to the casino experience. And I like the real money games, too. Check them out! I hope you enjoy it.
@Angelo85, your enthusiasm for craps is evident, and it's fascinating to hear why it's your favorite casino game. The level of player influence it offers truly sets it apart. While craps is undoubtedly a unique and engaging game, it's also worth exploring other casino options. One such alternative is bonusbet slots, which provide a different kind of thrill. These slots offer an array of themes and styles, catering to a wide range of preferences. They may not involve rolling dice like craps, but they bring their own form of excitement to the casino floor.
I'm more of a Macau fan myself – those hotels with no resort fees and free wifi are a game-changer. Shame about the lack of craps tables, though. I'm all about minimizing losses too, so I get where you're coming from. Baccarat central in Macau, huh? That's wild! And man, those Portuguese restaurants sound like a dream. By the way, have you ever tried the bonus cash back slot? Heard it's a hidden gem. Anyway, excited to be here, share more stories, and maybe pick up some new casino tips!
I think that Craps is a solid choice for a favorite casino game! It's unique in the sense that the player's roll can really impact the outcome. That element of control adds an exciting twist to the game.
I haven't been to a casino in almost 30 years. I used to go once or twice a year before I was married -- over a period of maybe 2 to 3 years -- not much really. Atlantic City. Would bring $300 in cash. All you can eat buffet for around $15. It was a day/night of fun with friends. Didn't really care if I won or lost -- because I always lost, lol. It was fun playing things like blackjack. It was paying $300 for an evening of entertainment, like going to a broadway play, or Disney World. At least you do have a fighting chance to win if you educate yourself on the odds for a given game. Now lotteries are throwing your money out the window. For everyone reading this -- you will never win that big jackpot. That's right -- it's a true statement. I guarantee that no one on this forum will ever win the big jackpot on a lottery ticket. That's how bad the odds are. You have a better chance of finding a bag full of cash on the street. But to the OP's question -- blackjack.
I totally get what you mean about the odds, too. Craps does seem to offer better chances compared to some other casino games, which can be pretty enticing.
Craps and blackjack are solid choices for sure, especially when you're all about maximizing the fun per hour. Sorry to hear about your Vegas trip woes though – sounds like it was a bit of a letdown.
I also like that craps has some of the best odds in the casino. With a house edge of just 1.41% on the pass line/come bets, it's one of the fairest games you can play. Compare that to the house edge of over 5% in roulette and 8-11% in slots, and it's easy to see why craps is so popular.
