Craps in Colorado Casinos

I have to make a trip to Denver, Colorado and wanted to find out if any of the casinos in Blackhawk or Central City offers craps. If so, which ones? More importantly, are any of them attached to a hotel.

I also heard that they have raised their limits in recent years from $5 to $100 max. Does anyone know how that relates to the odds bet? For example, does that mean a $100 passline with up to $500 in odds? Or only $20 with $100 odds behind?

Any advice or suggestions from Colorado people or people who have been to their casinos is greatly appreciated.

I know for sure that the Ameristar offers craps (I was there last week), and it is also a hotel.

The max is $100, so I'm pretty sure that you cannot make a $500 bet on the odds. It's pretty goofy because you can put 5 $100 wagers on different bets across the table, but you can't bet more than $100 on any individual wager.

I Know for sure Mardi Gras and Ameristar does. Also I believe the Lodge, Isle of Capri and others have craps as well. If you get a chance, get the local paper which is the Denver Post. It usually has an insert magazine that's all about the gaming for Black Hawk and Cripple Creek.

The Lodge does for sure. I played there this past December. It was early morning, but they had a table open. If you go non-peak hours, keep in mind that most do not have a table open all day. The dealers at The Lodge told me they are one of few (if not the only one) that keeps at least 1 crap table open all the time. Minimum was $5, max was $100. I think odds were 5x but it could have been 10x. Field bet paid 2-1 on the 2 & 12.

How walkable are the casinos in Blackhawk? Is it like Vegas where you can get around easily?

From Google maps it appears pretty walkable to me.

They are very walkable. Much more so than Vegas. Blackhawk is small and all the larger casinos are on a half mile strip. That's about the same distance as walking from the entrance of Paris to the monorail at the back of Bally.

We were there in May and I believe almost all of the larger casinos had craps and most were $5 min except at the Lady Luck which was $2 or $3. I don't believe fire bets were an option but they did have hop bets.
