I'm headed to warmer environs in the near future.

Any word on conditions in the DR?

Any suggestions on where to look other than the straight google search (which i just did, results so/so).

TIA,
Mimosine

Yes Zen,
I know that now, didn't even know what it was when i was there. I'm only in my 3rd week of thinking about playing bj, Baccarat is my game of choice.
Just bot the book "golden touch bj) (though not rec. here, an acquaintance uses it and a member of this board rec. it) supposedly simple to learn.
I will be at Tunica this weekend, so i'll be lounging by the pool with my book and will try and learn something. I "may" play the video bj machine if they offer a fair game. If not it's Bac for me.
Hey, learning much from this board, though confusing as heck !

When i went to DR they would pay you 3:2 but you had to win the next hand to take the "extra". pretty lame.
