March 6, 201313 yr It's very easy to sit down with $100 at a table with a $25 minimum and play for a couple hours....At least if you know what the hell you're doing that is. Or you are done in 90 seconds if you get unlucky. :lol2:
March 6, 201313 yr Or you are done in 90 seconds if you get unlucky. :lol2: You realize how small the odds of that happening are? Especially when you know what you're doing? :lol:
March 6, 201313 yr You realize how small the odds of that happening are? Especially when you know what you're doing? :lol: Losing 4 hands in a row? Happened to me plenty of times at the boat before.
March 6, 201313 yr Losing 4 hands in a row? Happened to me plenty of times at the boat before. Losing the FIRST four hands in a row....Very small chance that happens.
March 6, 201313 yr Losing the FIRST four hands in a row....Very small chance that happens. Either way if you are going into a Casino with $100 and the smallest limit is $25. Good chance you lose your money pretty quickly.

March 6, 201313 yr Author You realize how small the odds of that happening are? Especially when you know what you're doing? :lol: The casino NEEDS more than you table geniuses to survive. A lot of people do not know what they are doing, plus if you get one or two bad rolls of the dice, you're done! I am with Hellbird on the $25 comment. I used to love going to Argosy with $100 or so and play at the craps table all night and have fun losing the $100 or be near break even. Now you can't really do that.
March 6, 201313 yr I'm surprised so many people are complaining about the minimums. It's OPENING week. Once the new appeal wears off, they'll reduce the minimum. Until then, they'll continue to reap the benefits of a new attraction...and I don't blame them.
March 6, 201313 yr How much is the buffet place? I can't find prices on their website. I saw $16 quoted earlier in the thread. Seems reasonable, if true, but I bet that is just for weekday lunch. Is the price different depending on day and time?
March 6, 201313 yr And how is the buffet? I will go to eat but I don't gamble so it is eat and people watch for me.

Seems reasonable, if true, but I bet that is just for weekday lunch. Is the price different depending on day and time?It's either $16 or $17 but with a rewards card it's 2 dollars less. I might go there today for the buffett, if so I'll you know what I think of it. Margaritaville was nice, great drinks but the Booze In The Blender does is not as big as the ones in LV. Also, was told yesterday that it's free parking all week.
March 6, 201313 yr It's very easy to sit down with $100 at a table with a $25 minimum and play for a couple hours....At least if you know what the hell you're doing that is. You need more than $100 bankroll to play $25 dollar Blackjack tables. Everything I've read, says you need between 50-100x your average bet to be able to play comfortably and CORRECTLY. Remember, many situations call for you to double down or split pairs. So you need extra cash to absorb the hits you are bound to take, and times when you must increase your bets. Sure you don't have to split pairs, or double down when the situation calls for it...but then your not playing perfectly and giving the house a huge edge. Being able to sit for hours at a $25 table with only a $100 bankroll is more a result of being lucky than knowing what you are doing.
March 6, 201313 yr I agree you need more than $100, but $1250-$2500 seems like a little high of an estimate to me.
