Since the Powerball is at $1,300,000,000. Also, what gambling games do people play when/if they gamble? It can be dice, cards, slot machines, etc. Anything gambling related.
Note: Don’t talk about investments/markets in this thread, that’s what the “Let’s talk about money - The Finance Thread” is for.
Ya almost had me, skip.
I rarely gamble, but when I do it’s just dumb bets with people at work.
When I turned 21 I did some slots with my Aunt and Uncle, but that shit was boring. Never really played anything besides Black Jack, so I guess thats my only go to card game.
Casino wise I play brag and blackjack, bookie wise I literally play everything. Everything except cricket since that shit takes days to resolve.
Can we book money matches in this thread?
Fuck money matches no one ever wants to bet over twenty bucks
What’s brag? I’ve heard of bacccarat. People around here are crazy over baccarat. Even more so than poker
The slots are where it’s at for me. Actually hit up the casino this weekend and won $220 on one of those Rumble Rumble machines. Also, seconded on MM thread, lol. NB4 @KillaFox
Hooters Vegas 3am
Have to chill an hour to buy some donuts at the gift shop, closed be back in 1 hour.
WHICH I HAVE NEVER SEEN CLOSE EVER EXCEPT RIGHT THEN
KONAMI computer roulette. I’ve did this before and never, ever rolled. Get up like $12 from putting 10 in. Then some expert gambler sits down at the next seat. He takes out a crisp $100, puts it over the screen. Puts other money in the feed, sunglasses on, selects like 30 things at a time on 5 numbers. Man I want to look over to see what the hell he’s doing and if he’s even winning. And with 15 seconds or some shit to bet, like do they let you use NINTENDO 3DS kinda tablet stylus on this shit to bet how you want? Or would they be like, son WTF are you doing with a cheating device, come with us, leave the donuts. Then down to $3 and took it out.
That guy was a COOLER no doubt.
Good thing nobody even wanted any donuts. Could’ve had $30 worth of donuts, instead of $13. Cream Puff Daddy, coffee smalls, junior mafia
Anybody want to bet on “GRAND SLAM TODAY?! 10:1” same odds as "NO HITTER PITCHED TODAY"
We should’ve. A’s game went extra innings ended like 15 to 11, Josh Reddick Grand Slam. That 16 inning game went NO BETS after seeing 3 on or bases loaded in the 12th 13 and the game wouldn’t end. Game rains out, in San Diego vs the Angels, lol WTF how?! everything is closed but you put it in the weird machine that has everything, even a camera to prove its you on some far off bet, to get your money back and take that slip to the cashier cage, and wait forever for $10.
Luxor’s one was huge, and MGM grand is even bigger than that, but 10 am baseball betting in the Hooters corner of crazy gamblers-dude selected 10 things PARLAY, paid with $1 and 4 quarters, was pretty fun.
3 card poker, it’s a game of sheer luck and no skill. Some argue the way you place your bets is skill (play,ante,ante plus and prime) but I don’t believe in that shit.
It’s my go to game for a buzz after I clean up at black jack.
I hear sports betting is where the real money is at if you want to get serious about gambling. Than again, I’ve never really gotten into gambling (hell I went to Vegas for EVO a couple of years back and didn’t place a single bet down on a table)…
Sony Open in Hawaii, got Brandt Snedeker down each way for £5 at 20/1. The word is this is his time to break out, lots of pros saying hes defo gonna finish top so I dont mind this punt. Also its worth £135 if he wins and the usual fractions if he comes near top for the E/W.
Where ever EVO is this year…
Who wants to get together and own/dominate the NLHE (poker) or the baccarat (dragon bonus) tables?
Would be cool if a group of SRKers owned some tables…
Brandt Snedeker tied 1st place after 3 rounds, 1 round to go. :rock_on: nearly there my son. His price has been slashed to 3/1.
i want to learn how to play poker. what is a good program or phone app to learn?
Probably better of learn Texas holdem first, its the most popular 5 card poker game. Once you learn the hands its pretty straight forward.
Then if you got to EVO this year. Try this game
On Wednesday I went here. It’s only been open for 1 month and already 6 people have won $10,000 by getting a spade royal
Mega Millions is now at $390,000,000
Powerball is now at $222,000,000
