I think Teddy and I agreed we had the most fun at Lucky Club last night.

I think I lost there, but not much. But Teddy was on a real tear with the tens over there for a while.

We both had a lot of fun and I want to go back.

But I wanted to see if anybody else would be up for meeting at the Lucky Club Casino and Hotel.

It would be awesome to do a review of this place. While we were there, they had a thing where somebody went into a chamber and grabbed at coupons blowing in the wind. Definitely an interesting atmosphere. It was like a scaled down Joker's Wild except that the minimum bet on the craps table was $5 instead of $1. 10x odds.

I think this is a great casino for a TRUE risk-taker. Any out there?

I'm still in search of a smaller place that has a craps table, but this is the smallest I have been to yet.

All good. Triple and yes 49 for 1. Also, don't misunderstand, this casino is in a very seedy neighborhood. Also the table was not busy while we were there, and only one side of the table was open. But for some reason, it was a lot of fun.

Is it smaller than the Golden Gate?

There's only one craps table, but yeah, it's absolutely the smallest place I have been too with a craps table.

From Google maps I can see that the casino is 75 feet deep and 150 feet wide. There might be more slots than Golden Gate, I don't know. But Golden Gate is obviously a nicer place with newer slots. This place fits the definition of "hole in the wall" more than any other I've been to for a casino with a craps table.

I still am on the hunt for a smaller place though. There's a scene in St. John of Las Vegas with a craps table. I wish I could find a place like that!

There is a craps table in the pit at the Stagecoach in Beatty. Take a little drive:-)

Thanks to the tip on the Stagecoach Casino, I don’t know who many times I’ve stopped there for gas and never walked into that casino, when I’m out looking for meteorites. Nice to know, and would be a good way to pay for the gas that we burn when out hunting in that neck of the woods!

Ahigh glade to see that you pointed out that this casino might be a place for only risk takers, if I was winning in there I would make sure that I was keeping all the chips that are higher then red off the table out of sight. Then park as close to the front doors as I could get. It would be a good idea to only hit this casino with someone else.

A casino that would be a lot safer, with only one table, would be Club Fortune Casino, in Henderson. Your problem there would be, it’s only a $1 table with low max bets!
You wouldn’t want to go in there on a weekend night, as the collage kids all hit it!
This is one of those casinos that nobody knows about, I don’t know when they open their one table, the last time we stopped in there to pick up a chip for one of our buddies the table was closed.

RaleighCraps, if we can drag you out there, I would consider that a serious accomplishment ;)

Put it on the list as a possible rolling venue on your next trip. The dealers were very cool and appreciated the bets I was making for them. (Bet a $3 10 player control, it hit, pressed it to $5, it hit, pressed it to $8. They liked that.)

The Wizard has conveyed to me that he does not care to retain me for a review of the Lucky Club....I don't blame him :)

Hey teddy,
I'm still looking to play with you over new years, with your choice of casino(s). Based on the connotation associated with 'drag me out there' I guess I need to stipulate that any place you take me, does not risk my life, limbs, or bodily injury. I would also prefer to only need to worry about losing my BR to the craps table, and not to thugs.
Perhaps Lucky Club is not the place for me? LOL

Ya know, I don't think this is the place to make your regular routine place to go.

But this is ABSOLUTELY the place to go to make memories of an event you will never forget.

Going against the common wisdom and having a win that defies explanation are ingredients for a very successful recipe if you ask me.

There are no black chips and a $10,000 win would be awesome to pull the entire bankroll up into the rails over there. You could do the same at the Joker's Wild, but they get big action over there every now and then (there's a guy known as "Gary" who does this every now and then, and I'm sure there are others who play big at small venues). Of course they would bring out black chips if you started to win.

But half the fun is being the guy who's out of place and making big plays. If you haven't done it you don't know what you're missing.

Getting out alive just adds to the experience!!!! Come on you wusses!!!

My buddy and I bought into Golden Gate one night for 1G each, and started our bets at $110 inside, with immediate pressing to $90 on each number. I'm sure they have had much higher action, but it was obvious that it doesn't happen often. And we were winning which was causing all sorts of panic behind the box.

you are correct. It is fun. :-)

Maybe we can twist your arm then. I really wish we had a way to get video of the entire experience. It was just a riot we pulled a whole routine last time where I acted like a newb since they didn't know me already, and then just messed with them by the time we started hitting numbers, Teddy was hitting tens like no tomorrow, and the box definitely was acting funny for a minute before things cooled.

We walked without losing, but they were nervous when it looked like we were going to mess them up bad.

Reminds me of the time I was playing green chips (on the line) plus max odds at O'Sheas...the break-in dealer was having a real rough time of it, and I was definitely out of place.
