This is not really a land based casino, but I won 2500.00 on a cruise ship playing 3 card poker.. I am sure I am still down for my life but it was a nice honeymoon present.

most casinos around allow you to play as long as you are 18 but just table games. the real big casinos usually are 21 and older. so he probably says when he is 21 he'll make his way into the big guns.

I've done a lot better in casino's than I have online. The first time I played blackjack in a casino was at the Tropicana in AC, about 4 years ago. I turned 40 dollars into 900 in about 6 hours. I had no concept of bankroll, so I was probably doing some crazy stuff in regards to betting, but it was fun. I went to the room up and left for home the next morning. My last trip to vegas I won about a grand playing poker (5/10 hold em) over the course of 3 days, but lost most of it back to roulette and blackjack. But then I found craps, and my first time throwing I got beginners luck and rolled forever. The only other person at the table had like 500 bucks out, while I only had $75. But I turned that $75 into 400 and the other guy made like 8 or 9 grand!! He actually bought me dinner at the Bellagio because of it, which was very cool.

Lately, seems the only place I can win in is a live game. Online poker has had my number the past month or two. Oh well, they can't suck out every hand, or can they?

I was playing at bodog, but I have been playing at Boodog lately, because that's where I bet sports, so its more convenient to play out of the same account. What about you, where do you play?

I can't beleive it, but I haven't played on party poker in like 2 months because I opened the bodog account, and yesterday they put $50 in my account to play with, just to get me playing again. I have never seen this before. You have to play 10 times the hands, so 500 hands to cash out, but thats not to bad, I actually played a few sit and goes to build it up and got it up to $83 before I went to a cash game and put in 100 hands. I am down on cash games $14 bucks playing 1,2 omaha h/L, but couldn't get a low except once, and never got a hand that won both ways. I don't mind though, not a big deal to play for a while and not see any cards, especially if you know how cards work. I am gonna stick with it, see if I can build it up some more with sit and go's and then play the other 400 thru the end of the month and cash out and go back to bodog. Anyone heard of any other sites doing this? I'm not a bonus whore, but if they are gonna give it away..... I will take it.

Table games: Overall I am down on Blackjack, down on Mini-Bacc, down on Hold 'Em, down on Carribean Stud, Up on Big Table Bacc, down on the ponies(aqueduct), Up on NCAA FB and BB, up on NFL (slightly), down on MLB, down on NBA <--all sports betting done at Stardust and Hilton on 11 different trips. Up on NCAA FB and NFL FB along with MLB postseason at the Crystal Casino and Allegra Casino...I have a Time Share at Divi Phoenix just a minute away from Alhambra but they offer no sports book.

Overall I'm plenty down on table games but way up on sports. I have had my largest hits on football in Aruba where there is virtually no maxium play like Vegas where you have to go through horsehit, I've heard, to play anything over 5 digits.

Well, I am not of legal age yet so I haven't been to an actual casino. However I am a solid Hold'em player ;)
