3 card poker? That's a relativly new table game, I love that one, not too hard and a lot of fun.
I need to brush up on my basic strategy (blackjack). One thing to note, which is good for us, is that my parents & some relatives went to Vegas recently and they stay at the main hotels, and because of the economic crisis the place was as barren as they've ever seen it.
This is good for table-game players, since last time I went a few years ago they got greedy and jacked up the minumum an the tables...many places you couldn't play for less than $25 a hand, which is ridiculous. So they went back down to $10 and $5. I'm sure even less in some off-strip places.
HOWEVER the flip side of that is that the slot machine type games are not paying out at all. My parents & some relatives play some video poker and slot games and they often will advertise stuff like 98% payout, loosest slots, etc., but they've gone and set all of the machines in the bigger casinos to the lowest payout percentage that's legally allowable in Nevada...like 60% or something. My family recently went and said the macghines were the worst they've seen.Which actually makes sense, they now have to subsidize all of those giant casinos somehow! Bottom line? Table games FTW, machine games FTL, unless you're just playing around!
Yeah 3 card poker, its been in the casino's over in the uk for a while now been getting better and better at it recently last year i was a total blackjack junkie i really like the single deck tables as we dont have them over here in the UK but this year im definatley hitting 3 card tables. $5-10 a hand is what i usually play which in 3 card can easily turn to being $20 in if you think you have a decent hand. Im not much of a slots man i prefer games with some skill to them instead of just mindlessly feeding a machine. i may enter a texas torni again this year although im out of practice with my poker playing. Should be good this year. I'm hoping to meet back up with Roukan and Craint maybe even hit some clubs this time I dont know. hopefully we wil have a free booze party like last year. I still remember staying up till like 6am just to watch spurs in the sports lounge of the hilton and im looking forward to see what Virago and Walrus has planned for us.
Oh and hopefully we can be the loudest goup there like last year eq players are so quite

I plan to be present, unless they lock me to a desk at work.
Would be nice to know more details and get some love for MXO but i'm going mostly for the people.
Doesn't mean I won't protest though once there if we get the shaft.
