Hearing people talk about how good they are at blackjack or craps makes me laugh. Just quit now before you really screw !#!$ up for yourself. $500k sportsbettor is probably arbing it all so it's more like they're making a guaranteed 3 cents on every dollar wagered. Your best bet for Diamond is to do Diamond in a day and clear the needed points within 24 hours by playing video poker nonstop.

I'm on the tables around 3-4 times a week playing craps or baccarat.
Am i addicted? yeah pobably. but my business involves gambling so that's part of the deal. plus i've been doing this for a decade now.

anyone else play with the house on craps, or am I alone on this one?
just remember "slow money is better than no money, and fast money don't last money"

I'm at the casino heavy for poker and I get my craps, blackjack, roulette in as well....but those games are just for fun/thrill....i don't expect to win or lose big on them...when I win its bonus- when I lose its not a big deal
the worst feeling is seeing your the ball land on your number just as you walk up to the table or walk away...
I def have a potential gambling issue tho cause when i do win at those games I always feel like its not enough and i should have bet more

i get about 4k tier points per 2-3 day visit. i used to play roulette. now i play baccarat. i would say i have a slight problem but nothing i can't control. lost well over 50k since i turned 21 and that's only to casino's. i'm 22 now. poker was another failed habit before i turned 21. but that's another story in itself.

gambling money is play money...bills are paid, food is on the table first etc...that money would go on clothes, shoes, nonsense if not to Foxwoods, Mohegan and Vegas...
when you start blurring those lines then you have an issue...
edit: damn i just noticed my other tab that i have open is an email with my host setting up a mgm trip for this weekend

is there a secret to baccarat or any good books i can read? i heard its pretty simple (bet house or bet player) but there has to be a strategy behind it.
most if not all younger cats around your age that i know who are actually playin with a good chunk of change ($50K losses in 1 year definitely qualifies you) all play bac only. A couple of em will mess with craps or blackjack, but only for entertainment purposes. What is it about baccarat that brings in the big money players?

QFT. Im with this right here...
I consider myself a small player only going once or twice a week spending no more than 500 to 700 each time. But like Tre said, its all money that would be wasted on luxuries. Not necessities. I guess I could save more... lol.

It doesn't really lure big money players, but the minimums for baccarat tend to be higher. Most are $25 a hand even at cheap casinos. The game is super simple, but its all luck. No different then you taking your money to the roulette table and betting colors. Just ride whatever the hot streak is don't try to go against it. I used to do that all the time and would get killed. I see 5 straight bankers come out and I'm like ohh this ones going to be player so I dump a grand on player and end up losing.
