1. Slots are the most fun for me, but craps is also fun
if you know the rules!

5. well, damn girl, i need serious advice here
i truly thought about playing roulette, half on red and a friend puts half on black because either way we win and then we can play alll day without losing

that sound like a good strategy to you?

6. Well, I've never tried that. I guess it could work, but
I bet there is a way they get you though!

7. that's a terrible strategy
you cannot win because when the 0 comes up, you both lose, some wheels even have a 00 which gives you two chances to lose!

if the 0 never comes up, at best you break even

further you can't get any comps because it's obvious that you're running a doey-don't scam so don't even bother to ask for a free buffet

& before you ask no it's not a good strategy at craps either

it's just rude

if you don't want to gamble, don't gamble or keep it to the penny slots but don't insult the intelligence of the pit by playing doey-don't b.s. games

9. Mail them your money, it's easier. Actually the best advice is, to set
some kind of limits for winning and losing.

Example: 100 bucks set aside for entertainment.

When all 100 is gone, you are done.

If you double it to 200, you are done.

The trouble is people rarely adhere to such guidelines.

Remember that every game favors the house by at least a few percent or more, so you should expect to lose. They are not in business to lose money.
