    Do you gamble, and what's your game? Strategy, tips, systems? Share your vice with us. :cool:

    I'm always prepared to put a few bucks down on a game of backgammon, pool, and hold 'em, myself.

    Every once a while, i'll hit up Lake Charles with the family. We'd go to L'Auberge first and since I'm not a big time gambler and I just go for simple fun, I play roulette on the machine, sometimes the table; I love roulette, I don't know how but I'm always lucky and pick the right (number, quadrant, etc) to win lol - I take that money I win from roulette and we drive to Isle of Capri and I play 3 Card Poker there (because it's $5 min only (yes i'm cheap))

    Blackjack. Like most people, I play by the book. Not much to say there.

    EDIT: I'm more of a MATHEMATICAL/LOGIC person, so... BLACKJACK.

    But... I don't gamble. I've always come ahead. :eek:

    I don't really gamble much, but when I do, I play craps. Good fun.

    Generally I will play min pass line with max odds, play inside strategy (stay off the 4 and 10), and double bets on winning numbers.

    Yeah, I'm cheap.

    Not anymore! When I did, it was playing billiards. There's nothing quite as exhilarating as the sound of a rack being broken!...;)
