Title: Atlantic City: What's your game?
Post by: JonFromMaplewood on September 06, 2009, 01:47:17 PM

Tom,

You've mentioned trips to Atlantic City on the show here and there.  I end up going down there roughly once a year for one reason or another.

What's your game? Mine is craps. Best odds in the house and good camaraderie.

I lose too quickly at blackjack. Also, I find that the people at the blackjack table are too adversarial and they jump down your throat if you play your cards wrong (e.g. You hit on 17 and get an ace. The dude next you is like "Nice job busting with that ace that should have been mine!").

Just curious.

Best,
Jon From Maplewood

21 and roulette.  And sports book betting (not in Atlantic City, of course).  Ridiculous that race books are legal in Jersey, but not sports books.
