1) Do you gamble?

2) If so, do you like high stakes or low stakes?

3) What are your favorite games?


----------------


The only casino game I like is Blackjack...when I go, that's pretty much all I want to play.  It sucks, because you don't have house games down here in FL. 

I also like betting on sports - but NFL football only, and always low stakes....just enough to get me a little more interested in the game.

Lastly, for our friendly poker nights, I like no limit hold'em.  I have to sit through a bunch of other crappy wild games to get there, though.

Yes.  I like as high-stakes Poker games as possible.  They get the blood flowing, that's for sure!

I am still part of the Texas Hold 'em craze. Usually the amount of money played for is determined by all of us agreeing on a certain amount. I would say normally if we play 6-8 people the pize is around 100-120 bucks.

I have tried my hand at everything from NBA, NFL, MLB gambling and have come to one conclusion. Betting just to bet is going to crush you. You have to pick your spots.

At the actual casino i am a roulette man. I throw a chunk down there.

1) Do you gamble?  So seldom as to barely register.

2) If so, do you like high stakes or low stakes?  When I do gamble, I prefer higher stakes.

3) What are your favorite games?  Poker, Blackjack.  I don't bet on sports.

Roulette is great because if you're losing you just start betting red/black or odd/even until you get your money back.

At the Florida casino's I'm a 7 card stud guy. I HATE slot machines.

In Vegas, I'm a Caribbean Stud guy. I can clean house with that game.

I've never bet on sports unless you count Fantasy Football a bet.

i dont bet on sports, etc, but i like casinos.  atlantic city is only an hour and a half away, and at college, the indian casinos in CT were mad close.  i'm good at 21, roulette, and craps.  some of the smaller fun card games like let it ride, etc are cool too.  i absolutely HATE HATE HATE poker (but i used to run games in high school in my basement and make a fat percentage Wink ).

up until now i was a poor college kid, never had too much money to play high stakes, therefore low stakes was the way go.  now that i'm a workin man next time i go i'll definitely be playing a little higher.

oh yeah, and as most of you know i live right in Jets territory, and the horsetrack at the stadium is one of the best in the country.  i love goin there, its cheap to play, payouts are great, and its a fun place to go with a few buddies, good times.

1) Do you gamble?

Yes I have been known to frequent the Casinos here and in Vegas!!!!

2) If so, do you like high stakes or low stakes?

I'm a poor white boy so I tend to stick with the games with low stakes!!!!!

3) What are your favorite games?

I love Blackjack, it is by far my favorite. I also play a few of the slots and some Texas Hold'em. I like Poker and am just starting to learn how to play craps. I don't really bet much on sports, every now and then I will throw money down at the begining of the season on a certain team to win it all but I have never won anything off of it!!!!!

When I get the chance

Low to middle stakes.  High stakes only when I know I'm gonna win


3) What are your favorite games?

I enjoy poker, preferably Seven-Card Stud over Texas Hold 'Em.  That's a game to relax and take my mind off the rigors of blackjack.  To me, blackjack is a game that's beatable, so I beat it with a partner.  One of us counts, then signals the other when the count is high.
