Gambling... what's your game?
 
I like to gamble a little bit. We have a huge casino here in Montreal but I rarely ever go unless I'm with friends from out of town who want to to and play a bit. I mostly gamble when I'm in Vegas, or if it's poker night with the guys from my softball league.

Texas Hold'em is fun of course. Sometimes I do really well, and other times not so good. I guess that's the way that game can be.
When I'm in Vegas, I like to play Let it Ride and Roulette. I could sit and play those games for hours, and on occasion I have. I'll play Blackjack if I'm with a few people who want to play that, but it's not my favourite.

There's poker which is by leaps and bounds my favorite. Then behind that there is craps. EXTREMELY exciting to get on a table that is on a roll. Anything else is just eh.. it's there.

I like Blackjack. I do get bored with it though, even when I'm doing well. I never really learned how to play poker really well. My dad and brother are skilled poker players, but I never really got into it all that much. I was more into throwing darts and shooting pool.

The only card games I really remember playing was 500 Rum, (love it), Blitz, Screw Your Neighbor, Pinochle, and of course several variations of Solitaire. Then all the kids games like Uno and Crazy Eights.

Illegal? Where are you?

Cyndalie 08-10-2007 02:14 PM

I play the lottery sometimes LOL

I'm much too conservative to gamble. I don't enjoy the thought of losing money, and thats what gambling is. The house always wins. There is no such thing as a gambler who comes out ahead after years of gambling.

Strange considering I worked in the online gambling industry for many years...

Texas Holdem all the way.

Though I don't gamble. Holdem is a series of calculated risks. Not really chance/gamble.

blackjack
poker

in that order.

I was going to mention craps, but I don't really have enough experience with that game. I've played it only a handful of times and always with a friend who was helping me along. It's a very exciting game for sure. I just need more experience at it.

I almost never gamble but when I have in the past it has been the slots.

I know.

I'm sick of the laws they have here btw. Watching porn in internet cafes is illegal, lol.

And this is the country where The Kamasutra was written.
