I was at WWW for the first time in a while last Friday/Saturday.

Sadly now that Ceasars has taken over, minimums were $15-$25.

The place was packed and tables were full all night, so I guess I can’t blame them. For those that don’t know, in the past WWW had $5 minimums regardless of the crowd.

I lost $400 on craps very quickly

Hasn't Ballys/WWW been a part of Caesars for twenty years now?

Not anymore.

About a year ago Bally’s was sold. (To Twin Rivers?)

Wild Wild West wasn’t part of the sale, and is now part of Caesars AC.

I don't really follow what goes on in AC anymore. Can you still go from one to the other in the interior?

Yes as of a couple of months ago.

I really liked AC when I worked there in 1998/99. I'd have moved there if they'd offered me a fulltime gig. The sad thing was a year or two after I stopped working, my then boss said if he'd known I wanted to work fulltime, he'd have hired me in a heartbeat. To this day, I wish I'd bought a house in Longport.

I don't know why, I just always assumed that Station's (Red Rock) owned that.

Are you thinking of Vegas? We are talking about what used to be an annex of Ballys in AC.

I could be mistaken but I thought even during the busy times blackjack was $10. On the flip side I seem to remember a year or 2 ago a lot of the tables were 6:5 and now I believe they’re all 3:2. Quite odd (no pun intended) that most places in AC have been moving away from 6:5.

Yes. Bally’s to WWW to Caesars.

And similarly, the interior corridors from Showboat to Hard Rock to Resorts are still open too. Although the last time I walked that one, I got the feeling that nobody was taking responsibility to run an A/C in those shared corridors.
