Thanks! I wish I can win half of the amount you won in your last trip. :)
But I know it would be hard as my bet is just a quarter of yours.

This time I will stay at TI and Mirage.
I haven't decided what to do yet. But I try to do something different this time, such as learning a new game, like Craps.

Get those chips out there at the right time and you can certainly make it happen!

I don't drive a car so that I can drink whenever I want and as much as I want.
I am a public transportation guy, I will take the bus and can go pretty much most of the casinos.
As fas as I know, M is the only major casino without bus stop near by.

Man, that's the hard part!
My usual luck ( or the lack of it) is always having my chips out at the wrong time or at the wrong spot.

If you play craps, play the line for a minimum bet with double odds (or higher if you wish). That's just about all you need to know. Negative EV of about .60 %.

Eh, or you could play don't pass / don't come and have the lowest house edge on your side =).
Playing it correctly means you've already won.

Yes, but it would only be about a half cent better per $100 wagered than betting "right".

Thanks to Greasyjohn and Romes for the advices.
But that is already too advanced for me to comprehend. I know absolutely 0 about Craps.
