Threads for each Game
Would it make any sense to start thread where people could continually talk about their experiences with specific games?
I imagine they would build over time with people discussing things like strategies, location, fun stories etc.
I was thinking:
Black Jack
Craps
Roulette
Poker Table games (3 Card, Let it Ride, Pai Gow Poker etc.)
Baccarat
Video Poker
slots

Yes, I agree, I was thinking the same thing and almost started a thread yesterday about craps but wanted to think over what the focus of the thread would be first. Craps for example would be a great thread for everyone to discuss the various strategies one can play.
As for baccarat, no thread necessary, just follow baccarat_king and wait for a streak

Start your "Fun with Craps" thread. I would love to discuss.

I started 'What's your game?' and 'What's your Loyalty game?' threads with the intention of teasing out what people played, as a way to get to the individual loyalty/benefit summaries.
I agree that we may get to category threads once we've seen who plays what, where.
Hopefully BaccaratKing can make a master thread guide to his game.
Who has the chops to to write a guide to US and international loyalty programs for their own game?
(I can only write about buffets, across programs!

Somewhere buried way back in the Las Vegas forum was a very long thread where people were discussing craps and blackjack. Proved quite an interesting read, but it may have been over a year or so ago, so I don't know if it's still available, and I doubt if it's possible to break it down into a seperate thread on each game.
Also, where's Quiet Lion, who could be of help with some poker thoughts, and his video poker ideas? QL, you out there?

Though, baccarat can basically be summed up by two things :

and




and, to tell the truth, I spend a hell of a lot more time playing craps and talking crap (and talking about craps)

No worries, I want it to be an interesting and detailed thread... so, you have a give me a "bit" of time... hopefully, I won't disappoint.

While I'm pretty detail oriented, taking new pictures of the plates each year, is even a bit much for me. 

Anyway, this is NH, Live Free or Die --- we aren't required to wear seatbelts (by law), so... what's the big deal about an expired tag or two.
