favorite casino games?
I used to think 21 was my game, but from playing online I'm now learning that roulette is my best game. Strange that--I thought I was better at games of skill than luck. Now I can't wait to go to a a casino for the first time and try things out.

(Don't worry...I used to play a lot of poker. I'm not a novice to betting.)

1. I like 21
It's honestly the only Casino game I know :D

I'd never play online though, too much risk of getting hooked on it

2. Blackjack and Craps . . . .
The only two games in the house where you have close to even odds (and in the case of blackjack, if you know what you're doing, you can actually turn the odds in your favor).

4. I love blackjack...but I may be converting to poker
I've been playing texas hold'em at Yahoo and having a blast.

In the real casino, though, I've never played anything but blackjack....

RIP Binion's.

6. Poker
And when I say poker, I mean just about any kind of poker. Oh, and blackjack. Although I have never played either in a casino, I am quite convinced I could win at both. (He says confidently, having never lost a lot of money, so not knowing how much he really sucks at both.)

7. Roulette and Blackjack (and Slots)
Atlantic City sucks. Vegas rules.

Well, okay... Atlantic City doesn't suck... it's just not as good as Las Vegas.

8. Um you can't be "better' at games of luck. Craps and roulette
are the games the casinos make their money on.

Baccarat is a GREAT game.

BTW stats show that the longer you play a game of chance, the lower your chances of winning are.

Your best chances of winning are within the first moments you hit the table.

13. Blackjack - I like the pace of the game. Craps moves too quickly for me.
Baccarat is ok too... You can't lose a lot of money at that game.
