Just throwing the question out for discussion to see if we as a blackjack community do other games. I myself play other games for a break from the mental gymnastics at the blackjack tables. I play a mix of vp and three card with a smattering of stud. I know a true blue counter only goes to play bj but I'd thought I ask anyway. blackchipjim

Occasionally i will hit the craps or roulette just for fun throw a couple hundred nothing big just mess around with like family members birthdays or numbers friends throw at me before i go. My girlfriend loves the keno on the multi game video poker slots, so i will also sit next to her and play a little video poker for like 20 to 50 bucks. I never play for real money just the games i always played before i became serious about blackjack.

Blackjim,

There can be a wide array of AP "opportunitys" in the casino, keep your eyes and ears and mind WIDE open. VP, a few slots, single 0 roulette, craps, progressives, promos.....;)

Happy prospecting:cool:

One other thing i cant walk by that big wheel without at least once a trip putting 5 bucks on 5, 10, and the big bonus one. haha its become like a tradition. I laugh like hell when i play it cause its such an awful game but people get so excited, and some actually sit and play that wheel for a long time, its hilarious.

Just depends on the mood

If I am all with it mentally I love blackjack and poker but then again those games keep the brain churning, on the other hand when mental capacity is low Video slots are the way to go as for me it does not require much thinking.

Craps and VP for sure. Craps brings home some bacon, while VP is a tread-water type of play with the benefit of comps.

good luck

My girlfriend was into keno when i first met her. Now she avoids it like the plague do you know wht the hose advantage is on that sucker? Try and get her to play vp more espically if full pay deuces wild is available 100.77% in your favor. Or 9/6 jacks or better. But if its not to big a deal and she has fun let her go for it! im sure she dosent mind as you end up paying for all her losses am i correct? Thats the problem i have :laugh:

I have a weakness

Best AP opportunities are BJ and VP but I've been known to sit down next to attractive ladies at other games.

Blackjack and sportsbok betting

I am an avid online blackjack player but I do love sports betting online, mostly I guess I have more control over the outcome, now if I am not betting on sports or blackjack , Bingo always helps me break the monotony.

I do craps a bit, TH a bit ( low stuff ). Always been better at 21. I actually have a slight +EV at craps. TH is about -1/2%. 21 is about +1%. I do consider myself a bit luckier than good.

i play baccarat and roulette its the only game i play at the casino , was interested in BJ for counting but after seeing ACSM at every single table there no chance.
