Ah yes, I too remember the Aladdin and their $19 rates....I guess that's a good thing

I was a few years older on my first trip to Vegas, but I had a great time learning how to play craps with my dad at the Horseshoe. Now when I play craps with my mom and dad, the dealers have a very easy time keeping up since we all bet the same way

the only relative (over the years) I have consistently played dice with is my stepfather,

But, he has a hugh black cloud over him; so I bet the don't whenever he is shooting... often with success.

He's so unlucky, he actually managed winning the bad beat @ Caesars AC two years ago for a cool $54K. Gotta love when losing the hand, brings in the big money!
