Has anyone been here? I live about 2hrs away, do they have any decent blackjack games that would be worth the drive? I appreciate any replies.

I've been to Rincon quite a bit. I live roughly 1.50 hrs away. Don't gamble too much there since they don't use dice for craps, wife likes to play slots and eat their oyster bar. As for BJ, I know the Holy Rollers have played there before, but I can't give too much detail on their rules. Sorry

Yeah, I've tried learning craps but the cards throw me off? Do they change the odds of the game?

The cards aren't supposed to? But I'm not a fan of them nonetheless. On an interesting note, Rincon offers the FireBet for card craps, pretty cool side bet.

I turned a $200 bankroll into $1100 chiefly through the card craps on Thursday evening at Rincon, I even made a fire bet once for 4 points. They used to have several double deck, $25 3:2 DAS, H17, surrender games on the floor. Harrah's, Valley View, Pala all have about the same rules but no surrender at Pala.

Their shoe games are all 8 deck and not very good. Their double deck game used to be one of the best, but they recently dropped surrender as a rule. But it is still quite good.

There are a bunch of casinos along that road, Pauma, Valley View, Pala that are about 15mins apart, I'd recommend visiting each one to see what works best for you. The rest all have 6 deck games with decent rules.

I think Harrah's Rincon is angry with me. I played card craps there early this morning, and on my hand I hit five numbers of the fire bet ($1250 on the $5 bet) and took a photo of the table layout with the fire bet discs on the numbers. I posted it on the casino's facebook page ... and a few hours later it disappeared.

That is probably just standard policy--a lot of corporate Facebook sites don't allow other people to post on their sites.

Take a look at their facebook page. Loaded with posts by others. Including photos of slot machine jackpots.

Maybe because they don't want people taking photos of the games? pretty standard in most casinos.
