Im heading up to the Bethlehem area this week and will probably stop in Sands. Does anyone here play there... do the craps tables stay crowded and how many tables do they normally have open?

DjTeddyBear is probably the most qualified here to answer.

But I will say that all my experiences at Sands Bethleham has been absurdly crowded tables with high miniums.

I only played there once about a year back. As I recall they had 6 tables: 4 at $15 minimum and 2 at $25 (that was on a Sunday afternoon). I didn't have any trouble finding a spot at one of the $15 tables. Plenty of room, of course, at the $25 tables.

Yeah, I’ve been going there about once each week, although I’m starting to shift my business to Resorts World in the Catskills.

Yeah, that’s about right. You *might* find a $10 table early in the day, but don’t count on it. $15 tables are no problem although they might be tight. Then again they might be empty.

I, for one, would be interested in hearing you take on Resort World. Haven't checked it out yet and wasn't sure if it was worth getting off the Thruway for when passing by. Not, however, suggesting ahijack of this thread but maybe an add-on to this one.

If you are in Bethlehem on Thursday and want to play some craps, send me a PM and maybe we and meet up.

I think Sheldon Adelson is already doing that... or at least he was but I heard he sold the place but let the buyers keep the name.

Fake news. Ownership change will be official by Q1 or Q2 2019. Name will then change to Wind Creek Casino Resort Bethlehem.*

*Pending regulatory approval.

Wind Creek? The people in Alabama?

Ugh. Or better yet, since someone is sure to claim I made an NA slur, yuck. Maybe PA gaming will overrule some of their uglier tendencies.
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.
