Casino Night at Work!

Want a cure for the common office party? How about a Casino night? With a little bit of planning, your boring office can transform into a Las Vegas Casino filled with glitz and glamour, if only for the evening. Now, running a casino night does require more work than the standard party, but your friends and your coworkers will have an amazing time; it's well worth it.

It should be worth mentioning that it's not a good idea to actually have gambling. Aside from being illegal, losing a lot of money would probably cause some attendees to have a not so good time. If you're itching for some high-stakes action, don't worry. There are a few ways to make it exciting without anyone losing too much money. Before the party, pick up a bunch of prizes that people would enjoy winning. Depending on your party's budget, good prize ideas include gift certificates to local restaurants, electronic gadgets or something fun like a coupon for a casual-dress day. We'll get back to the prizes in a bit.

If you have the budget, you would do well to hire a local company that can provide equipment and staff for your party. Proper gaming tables and professional dealers go a long way adding to the fun and experience. Also, don't forget to have plenty of drinks on hand for your thirsty gamblers. It shouldn't be hard to find someone to play the role of a cocktail waitress for the night, just remember to tip well. It's also a good idea to have a karaoke machine set up, so would-be lounge singers can take a break from gambling long enough to set the mood. (Luck be a Lady, Anyone?)

Now onto the gambling! When your coworkers arrive, everyone should get the same amount of chips. These chips will be the currency used for all of the games. A little research is necessary to figure out the exact amount and denomination of chips to hand out. This is based on the selection of games and the length of the party. Also, you should have more chips ready for gamblers who lose everything. (Have them donate $10 to a local charity to be able to get back in the game.

After everyone has had their fill of gambling, now it's time for the prizes. Have everyone take the chips they won, and auction off each item starting with the least valuable and culminating in the most valuable, or "grand prize." With everyone in a gambling mood, an auction is great fun, and will make winning prizes even more exciting.

A well-run casino night will be one of the most fun office parties you will ever attend. With the right preparation, you and your coworkers will really feel like you've been transported to Las Vegas, without the nasty jet lag. Good luck and have fun!

Casino Business Plans

Go into the Casino business if you want to have fun while you work. Casino business plans are all the rage these days, as more and more entrepreneurs are getting attracted to this lucrative opportunity. Although, it is a growing business, you would be wise to plan the detail specifics of your operations and conduct adequate market research to understand the extent of this opportunity.

Casino business plans fall into two categories. You can plan to set up either an online casino or invest in the location casino business. For an online business, you could make an outright purchase of a casino on sale. Many online casinos even offer a franchise. They have readymade casino business plans and are willing to set up your business website. You will be given all the tools necessary for your operations.

Pre-built Poker and casino rooms are available to set you rolling. But you will have to devise the marketing strategy on your own. Online marketing is expensive and you will have to allocate sufficient funds under this head. The number of hits at your website will decide your ultimate revenues. The start-up costs for an online casino business depends upon your investment capacity. Even a very low initial investment can set you going. Online gaming is a home-based business and can turn out to be very lucrative, if marketed appropriately.

The location casinos cater chiefly to the corporations, the non-profit and civic clubs. The entire casino atmosphere is replicated at the given location. The location casinos are in great demand during conferences to entertain the delegates. They are often used as fundraisers too. Be sure to check if you need a license to operate a casino and study the state government regulations. Get information on the locations that do not permit casinos. Sample casino plans are available at the local Small Business Administration office. Use them as guidelines to draw up your strategy. Then start scouting for employees who are ready to work on a payment-per-event basis.

Have fun and pocket those profits!

Free Casino Games - The Online Casino Bonus

Since the Casinos started sponsoring sites for online Casino games, millions of players from around the world have participated in them. The goal of the sites is to offer fun games which should only be normally found in Casinos. There are sites where the action is live, where there are webcams to show other online players, and then there are others where no one can see each other but the game is played out.

There are a lot of sites which offer free online Casino games like Roulette, Poker, craps, blackjack and others. There are some where, with a simple click of the mouse, the players can be transferred from a free site playing with fake money, to a real one and lose or win real money. There are sites where there are no downloads needed for playing if the site uses the flash technology, and then there are others where downloading is needed for those who like to play without having to rely on the internet service.

Then there are those which offer the online games bonus. These are not free online entertaining games; these are real online casinos where real money is involved. These should never be confused for the free sites. These online casino bonuses are lures for players to make deposits into the site and play with real money.

The bonus increases the chances of the player to win, but it could also be abused by the player and result to a lot of losses for them. However, it should be noted that the amount deposited into the account really depends on the player. So those who claim damages against the sites for their money lost really have no grounds to their claims. The online casino bonus is never offered in free entertaining games and there is a need to open an account as well.

If you are one who likes to play with no money involved, then the free online sites are the places to go. But should you be one who likes to play with real money, and then the free sites should only be used for practice. There are other online casinos where real money is used.

Before opening an account, or playing online, it is very important for the player to read the policies and the rules. These are usually straightforward and easy to understand so there is no confusion. Remember, when you see online casino bonus, this means you entered a site that is not for free entertaining games.

Clams Casino - Culinary Survivor of Narragansett, RI's Casino

Clams Casino is a distinctive shellfish appetizer made with a cherrystone clam, breadcrumbs, and topped with bacon. A Rhode Island dish which spread in popularity across the country like wildfire, it is a culinary survivor of one of the Ocean State's most prominent and cherished landmarks. Let's revisit Narragansett Pier during a time when trains from New York and Boston transported scores of wealthy tourists to this seaside resort to enjoy the beaches, fishing piers, Casinos, tennis courts, polo fields, race tracks, restaurants, and hotels-namely The Casino.

The Casino was constructed between 1883 - 1886 for the Narragansett Casino Corporation following designs by Charles F. McKim, associated with the architectural firm of McKim, Mead & White. This rambling edifice consisted of an S-shaped stone and wood-shingle structure along Ocean Rd. and Exchange St., and a smaller structure backing up to Mathewson St. The original roof shingles were laid in uneven wavy rows to look wind-battered. Purportedly McKim himself climbed the roof when it was finished and pried off some of the shingles to make the building look even more weather beaten.

The main building of The Casino included stores, dining rooms, cafes, parlors, a billiard room, reading room, and an assembly room which served as a theater and ballroom. The Mathewson St. structure contained a bowling alley and shooting gallery. Hence, The Casino became the center of social life where the affluent were expected to appear and be noticed at lunch, dinner, and evening gala events.

Alas, on September 12, 1900, a fire started in the Rockingham Hotel, north of the Towers and swept the Exchange St. area, destroying The Casino and leaving only the stone Towers. Though the ruins were repaired 1908 - 09, the Towers remained vacant until 1924 when it reopened as a ballroom. The Great Depression of the 1930s vacated The Towers once more until 1963 when a snack bar was opened on the ground floor of the east tower. The Towers burned again in 1965.

However, during The Casino's sea bed of pretention and frivolity, the recipe for clams casino emerged in 1917. According to Good Housekeeping Great American Classics, reigning socialite, Mrs. Paran Stevens wanted something special for a luncheon she had Booked at The Casino, so maitre d'hôtel, Julius Keller obliged. Mrs. Stevens named this appetizer on the half shell in honor of the hotel, and could not have foreseen how social banter would spread the popularity of clams casino beyond the Atlantic seaboard.

Though The Casino perished by fire, the legacy of clams casino lives on. One needn't be a socialite to enjoy an appetizer once savored by the affluent. Here is the legendary recipe for clams casino serving four (John Mariani, The Italian American CookBook, published by Harvard Common Press).

Ingredients

4 tablespoons (½ stick) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons minced shallots
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh or bottled roasted red pepper
½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons finely chopped green bell pepper
4 teaspoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
4 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
Freshly ground black pepper
½ cup white wine, such as Chardonnay
24 littleneck or cherrystone clams well rinsed
3 strips bacon, each cut into 8 pieces

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 450°F.
2. In a small saucepan, combine the butter, shallots, red pepper, Worcestershire sauce, green pepper, parsley, lemon juice, and black pepper to taste. Place over low heat until the butter melts, then remove from the heat. Stir to blend, and set aside.
3. In a large sauté pan, heat the wine over medium-high heat. Add the clams, bring to a boil, and reduce the heat to medium. Cover the pan with a tight-fitting lid and let steam until the clams open, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Carefully remove the top shell from each clam, being careful not to spill the liquid surrounding the clam. Discard any clams that have not opened.
4. Spoon the butter sauce over each clam, and top with a piece of bacon. Arrange the clams in a baking pan, and bake for 5 minutes. Increase the oven temperature to broil. Heat the clams under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes, until the bacon crisps a bit, and serve.

Like the Towers which survived The Casino fires as well as the Hurricane of 1938, clams casino reigns in social prominence long after Narragansett Pier's heyday at the turn of the twentieth century. A gracious nod to hostess with the mostest, Mrs. Paran Stevens, for her brilliant suggestion, and to maitre d'hôtel, Julius Keller for his culinary genius. Minding our table manners, let's be discreet in using our appetizer forks to scrape every breadcrumb and bacon bit from the half shell.

Casino - The Ultimate Entertainment Location Offering Exciting Casino Games and Gambling

A Casino is a place which hosts certain types of gambling action. Typically, Casinos are often located near hotels or are a part of hotels which are called Casino hotels. This is done to offer visitors and tourists' accommodation facilities along with gambling entertainment. Most casino also feature live entertainment events, like music concerts. There are more than five thousand casinos located around the world.

History of Term Casino

The word casino actually means small villa or a pavilion designed for pleasure. For instance places that are called casino include Giulia and Villa Farnese. In the nineteenth century, the word "casino" started to be used to point out public places which hosted entertainment activities like gambling and sports. One such structure is the Newport Casino in Rhode Island.

Casino Gambling

In most countries there is a minimum age limit for gambling at the casino although some countries have outlawed gambling altogether. Typically this age limit is 18 or 21 years old in most Western countries.

Players can gamble at the casino by playing games like slot machines which offer a high payout rate and are quite entertaining. The more skilled players like to play challenging games that require strategies to win. The games that are mostly based on chance include craps, roulette, baccarat and slots. Casino games that require skills include Poker, blackjack and other table games. A casino has mathematically-determined odds which are called the house edge. This means that the odds of winning are such that the casino always makes a profit in the long term.

Biggest Casino Winners

Just who are some of the biggest Casino winners in Vegas? The answer might surprise you. It's not the professional Poker players or the people that are paying the $100 slots that are winning big. It is people just like you and me that are just keeping the seat warm and taking a chance on the slots. The biggest winners on record are all winners of the Megabucks jackpot. The jackpot starts at $7 million and goes up from there until there is a mega winner.

For one lucky man, lightning or rather a jackpot has struck twice. At the age of 92, Elmer Sherwin won his second Megabucks jackpot. Mr. Sherwin won $21 million almost 16 years after his initial win of 4.6 million in the same jackpot game. Both of Mr. Sherwin's jackpots were won in Las Vegas and were part of the Megabucks network of progressive slot machines. He will receive his winnings in annual installments but said that he had plans to donate his winnings to victims of Hurricane Katrina. His first jackpot win had allowed him to travel the world, now he wanted to give back.

Another big winner was Amy Nishimura from Hawaii. At 71, Ms. Nishimura was visiting Las Vegas on vacation and hit the $8.9 million Megabucks jackpot at the Freemont hotel after spending about $100 on the slots. Ms. Nishimura was another winner of the Megabucks network that is linked to over 150 Casinos across Nevada. More players mean a higher payout for the lucky winners. She said that she had had dreams about her win before she hit the jackpot.

The largest jackpot ever won in Vegas was $39.7 million and was won in March of 2003 at the Excalibur Casino. The lucky winner was a 25-year-old man from Los Angeles that turned a $100 stint at the slots into the biggest win ever recorded. The instantly wealthy man was visiting Vegas for the NCAA basketball tournaments and just sat down at the slot machine to play for a while. He walked away with a whopping 1.5 million dollar payout for the next 25 years.

While we can all dream, the big winners are all just like you and me. They decided to sit down and take a chance and lady luck was on their side. As Mr. Sherwin has proven, lady luck doesn't always only strike once.

Advantages Of Choosing Casino Games From A Trusted Casino Portal

Many people tend to choose where to play Casino games completely at random - perhaps by clicking a colorful and flashing banner at some website they have found while browsing, or by following a promotional link in an e-mail. Now, there is nothing wrong in signing up with a trusted online Casino via their advertisements - not at all - however, the question is whether this behaviour is going to land the player with the best deal available for that particular Casino? Also, are there perhaps any other considerations the player should keep in mind prior to diving in to just any casino game or website?

In this article we will discuss the advantages of choosing where to play casino games by visiting a trusted casino portal prior to playing. First, let us define what such a portal is. The term portal, when used in the context of the online web, is primarily a gateway providing useful links to many other websites. When used properly, a portal can provide essential information to the visitor about the topic of interest - and can also guide him or her to some recommended resources. This may save the visitor a lot of time and effort in evaluating the usefulness of the websites that they may come across. In this sense, the internet portal is very similar to the city tourist office where visitors come to find sightseeing attractions.

In the casino entertainment industry, portals are exclusively necessary and vital to the users as, quite frankly, there are simply so many casino games and gambling websites to choose from. By visiting an online casino portal, the player can quickly gather essential information on the games they would like to play and evaluate the reputation of a particular website in beforehand.

The true purpose of a good casino portal is to provide visitors and players with useful information - whether it has to do with the rules of the casino games (aka how to play), reviews of individual online casinos or Poker rooms - or any other information on the subject that may appeal to the player.

One of the benefits of subscribing to the newsletter of a trusted casino portal, or by visiting it on a regular basis, is that players can stay updated with the latest offers provided by various online casinos. More often than not, casino portals have the ability to work out special deposit bonus deals with some of the casino operators which are exclusive to the portal subscribers. This way, the player may receive more in bonuses when signing up for a new online casino, rather than signing up via a random banner click elsewhere.

Of course, there are certainly many bad examples of casino portals available on the internet. These websites are often simple web templates stuffed with various casino banners and affiliate links, providing no valuable information to visitors whatsoever. Such websites should be avoided at all cost - a very common strategy for these websites is to plant tons of annoying pop-ups or redirections distracting the visitor. In worst case, they may even contain viruses or malware.

Luckily enough, most casino portals provide its users with an informative and enjoying gaming experience. By choosing to play casino games via a trusted casino portal, players can rest assure that they will get quality gameplay - probably also associated with the best deposit bonus deals available.

The Oldest Casino in Las Vegas, The Golden Gate Casino

When you're in Las Vegas, odds are you're there to gamble. Not many people pay attention to other aspects of Vegas. To stop and look at Vegas as a whole, many would notice that it's dry, dirty, hot, and extremely expensive.

The euphoric rush which takes over while gambling and partying often blinds individuals to the current state of affairs. But let's face it, we all love to gamble. And some places in Vegas do have more appeal than others.

Though some people may rather stay in places like the Bellagio and Caesars Palace, the Golden Gate Hotel & Casino really tells the sordid story of Vegas, and people still frequent its small quarters.

You can find this Casino at One Fremont Street in Las Vegas. Part of the Fremont Street Experience, Golden Gate is the oldest and smallest hotel on the Fremont, coming in at only 106 rooms. The casino opened in 1906 as the Hotel Nevada.

In 1907, it was assigned Las Vegas' first telephone with the number 1. In 1931, after gambling was once again legalized in Nevada, the Hotel Nevada was expanded and then renamed "Sal Sagev" which is Las Vegas spelled backwards.

Its current name was picked up in 1955 when a group of Italian-Americans from San Francisco started the Golden Gate Casino. The 106-room, four-story hotel was completely renovated in 2005.

The Golden Gate was the first casino to serve a fifty cent shrimp cocktail, which is now a Las Vegas cliche. The shrimp cocktails, available for years at 99-cent, were coined as the "Original Shrimp Cocktails" and have become a mainstay of the San Francisco Shrimp Bar and Deli and is quite the favorite of both locals and tourists.

The shrimp cocktails are what the Golden Gate Casino is best known for. Unlike other casinos who also offer 99-cent shrimp cocktails, Golden Gate doesn't pad the glass with lettuce or any other filler. Millions of people make the trip into the casino each year just to try a shrimp cocktail. Unfortunately for many of the cocktail fans, the price did rise to $1.99 in April 2008.

But the shrimp cocktail isn't the only appeal that the Golden Gate has. In the early 70s and throughout the 80s, people heard rumors of mafia activity taking place in the Golden Gate. This was never proven, and ultimately passed off as Italian-American stereotypes.

America has always been enthralled by the mafia. It's no wonder that people would crowd the casino in hopes of catching a glimpse of some sort of mob activity. The Golden Gate isn't the only casino to suffer this fate by far.

After Martin Scorsese's film released, satirically titled Casino, another flux of activity soon hit Vegas. But it's Vegas after all. Hints and rumors of organized crime may bring in a certain niche, but Vegas has always stood as an institution solely for their gambling.

No matter the shrimp, the mob, or the cheaper prices at the Golden Gate, the fact is that they're the first casino around. And for most people, this counts as something. Their hotel is ripped to shreds by critics, and after the price of shrimp increased to a dollar, many people decided to go elsewhere. But the Golden Gate will always have a fan-base. It will be purely on nostalgia if not anything else.

Ripped Off By an Online Casino?

If the worst happens and you get ripped off by an online Casino what do you do? First of all, contact the online Casino operator themselves. It may have been an honest mistake or a flaw in their system and they might be only too grateful to hear from you so they can fix the problem so it doesn't happen again. If this is the case then they should reimburse you any money lost and they might even give you a bonus as a gesture of good will.

If they don't and they truly are a rogue casino out to rip off their customers then there are several watchdog organisation set up to help people who have had a bad experience with online gambling. It is in the interests of the online gambling industry in general to look after all their customers and potential customers. A little bad publicity can go along way in the gambling industry.

Online Players Association

The Online Players Association (OPA) is a watchdog group that also endorses online casinos, online gaming and online gambling sites. They ensure that sites they endorse are reputable and honest. They also mediate disputes between customers and the sites they endorse so that online gamblers can play in safety. The Online Players Association was formed in 2000 and has so far recouped over $100,000 in winnings and deposits from online casinos and other online gambling sites.
Web Site

Interactive Gaming Council

The Interactive Gaming Council was formed in 1999 and is an industry organisation comprised of online gambling sites, online gambling portals, online casinos and any other business involved with internet gambling. One of their primary purposes is to set standards that members must adhere to. Their Seal of Approval system assures that members uphold the IGC's etchical standards and also helps players resolve disputes by acting as a mediator between them and the online gambling company.
Web Site

Off Shore Gaming Association

The Off Shore Gaming Association is a monitoring watchdog group that keeps an eye on the off shore gaming industry. They maintain a list of reputable online casinos.
Web Site

Internet Gaming Commission

The Internet Gaming Commission, not to be confused with the Interactive Gaming Council who share the same acronym, is also a watchdog group that monitors online gambling sites like the online casinos. They also maintain a body of information about safe online gambling sites and have a dispute resolution department to mediate disputes between gamblers and online casinos.

Online Casino FREESLOTS

Whether you spell it "free slots" or "FREESLOTS" it means the same thing, free money for you to play the slot machines at certain online Casinos. FREESOTS can be in the form of free money with no deposit, a number of free spins, or a starting balance in your account.

What ever the offer from the Casino you must read the rules on the promotion page of the casino web site. If you don't follow the rules to the letter you will not get the promotion. So please, read the rules of every offer!

You can find offers all over the Internet for playing various types of free slot games online for cash. What is there to gain in playing free slots? In most cases you get to keep any winnings over the free money put up by the casino. If you get lucky this could put hundreds, even thousands of dollars into your pocket.

Also this free play will also let you check out any new strategy you have come up with to play the slot machines. But I must also warn you that playing the slot machines is pure luck. There is no way that you can change the computer that is the heart and sole of the slot machine. Playing blackjack you have a chance to play a strategy and be successful at it, but not with slots.

Remember that free slot machines are a game just like and other game. It can become very addictive and you have to know when to stop. If you are having problems with gambling please seek professional help.

Top 5 Casino/Poker Movies

Rounders:
- Not too much to say about this movie. For Texas Hold'em fans this is their filmatic-Bible. Rounders is inescapable, and a bit overrated, but all around enjoyable, especially for John Malkovich's great performance (and accent). My friend works for a manufacturer that sells custom Poker chip sets and he says he gets at least a dozen orders a month from people asking to recreate the bear-emblazened personalized Poker chips from this movie.

The Cooler:
- I'm a bit biased since I'm a big William H. Macy fan. He does get somewhat typecast as the feckless loser too often (as he does in this film) but he does it so well. Alec Baldin is really good in this as well.

Croupier:
-This film is really worth seeing especially if you are a modern film noir fan. This is a really dark, really well done film that doesn't gloss over the seedy side of the Casino business. It was one of the better movies I've seen in a long time. It doesn't romanticise the profession, far from it, but it does show Casino's and gambling in a certain seedy, but appealing light. I recommend the movie, not just to Casino lovers or card fans but to anyone looking for a great depiction of the industry and how it can both ruin and save one's life.

California Split:
- It's by Robert Altman. An American treasure. What more can I say? See this before Atlman's ghost rolls up in a Benz, Mercedes benz rims and all, and slaps you into it cognizance.

Casino
- DeNiro, Sharon Stone, Martin Scorsese. This movie is to gambling movies what Godfather is to mobster movies. If you're looking for the ultimate Casino/ poker movie most would agree that this is it.

How To Get Some Free Casino Play In An Online Casino

Is it really possible to get free Casino play in an online Casino? That is the first question we encounter upon mentioning the possibility to the many people who have been brought up with the 'nothing like a free lunch' mentality. In asking this question, they want to see whether the Casino play would be truly free, or whether there may be some 'catches' attached to it. So, we are left with a question of whether there is a real possibility to get free play in an Casino online, which we have to address ourselves to, before venturing to explore the ways through which one can get such free play.

As it turns out, it is indeed possible to get free casino play in an online casino. When casino owners make this assertion, they are not being mischievous. They mean what they say. At this very moment, there are people enjoying free play at various casino online. Of course, the question as to whether there are 'strings' attached to this 'free play' is a little bit more complex. At the end of the day, the people running these online casinos are business people, and everything they do is designed to serve their strategic business interests. So when they offer you free casino play, you definitely know that they will be leveraging on it to increase their profits at some point. But, for sure, there is an opportunity to get free play online.

The next question in need of addressing is as to how one can access such free play in an casino online. And as it turns out, the main way through which you can access such free play in an online casino is by making use of the various casino online bonuses on offer. When an online casino offers you a bonus, it is effectively offering you free play to the tune of the bonus amount. This is like where you load $200 to an casino online which is giving a bonus of 10% on deposits - and you end up getting $20 bonus. That $20 bonus is also, in effect, $20 worth of free casino play. So the thing for you to do, in this regard, would be for you to check out the online casinos which have a reputation for offering such bonuses (ideally, on a regular rather than on a 'promotional' basis, and make yourself a member there).

Sometimes, you don't even need to first deposit some amount of money into your online playing account for you to access free casino play in an casino online. There are some casino online that, in a bid to hook up more members for themselves, are offering those so-called 'no deposit bonuses' so that, by the simple virtue of you registering with the casino in question, you get to access the free play.

And in all this, don't worry too much about the 'catches.' In offering these free play opportunities, all that the online casinos are after is an opportunity to have you as their member, so that you can be playing on them regularly. But the ultimate choice in this regard is still yours. There are usually no other strings attached. And in most cases, should you win whilst playing via the free casino play opportunity, your win would be as valid as any other.

Casino Comps

We've all had friends come back from triumphant weekends in Las Vegas bragging about how their hotel rooms or meals were "comped." For those of us who are n;ve to Casino etiquette and ritual, the word "comp" is short for "complimentary." When a meal or a show ticket was "comped," this implies that the Casino gave these things to a gambler free - sort of.

For most people, comps aren't really free. Casino comps are generally given to those who are gambling, and let's face it, most people end up losing. Particularly for those playing the slots, the majority of gamblers in a casino, the house advantage is such that comps really don't make up for the typical slot player's losses. A free buffet ticket is generally worth less than the average gambler's losses on a given day.

So what kind of comps can one expect when gambling? The most obvious is free drinks. If you're in the casino, and you're actually gambling, you can get free drinks. Don't try to fake it either; those cocktail waitresses have seen it all, and they are not fooled by lame attempts to "appear gambling." Also, if you wish to get more than one free drink per night, be sure to tip the server appropriately.

For any other comps above free drinks, the casino needs to know who you are. As comps exist to build relationships between the casino and gambler, the casino will want to know how to contact you with coupons and specials. This is accomplished through signing up for a "player rewards card" or a "slot club card." These cards are free and each casino will have their own card. Cards are inserted into machines or picked up by pit supervisors, and they keep track of how often you gamble, your winnings, and your losses. It is these statistics that will determine what comps you may receive.

Once you have your card, the comps will start coming. The most frequently awarded comp is cash, which is either given on site or mailed out at a later date. Other common comps include airfare, show tickets, free valet parking, and hotel rooms. Again, these things are given based on how much you play, win, and loose.

Although it isn't uncommon for a supervisor to approach a gambler and ask him or her if a room or meal comp is desired, it's generally your responsibility to find out what comps are available to you. This can be accomplished by speaking with representatives of your club to find out which comps you may receive. If you plan to become a casino regular, it is in your best interest to introduce yourself to the casino host. This person can grant all kinds of different comps if he or she thinks it will keep you spending large amounts of money in the casino.

Casino Games - The Avant Dernier Strategy in Baccarat

Many gamblers who frequently play Casino games online will at some point stumble upon the game of Baccarat. While most players today seem to prefer playing video slots and other graphically stunning Casino games when they are online, Baccarat is one of those classic and traditional card games that has been played for centuries. In fact, this game is believed to have been introduced during the reign of King Charles VIII who was the ruler of France between 1483 and 1498 - and it has been played all over the world ever since. Today, every decent online Casino with some self-respect will host at least one or several variants of Baccarat.

Despite its reputation of being a very difficult Casino game to master, Baccarat is actually quite easy to get a grip of since there are only three types of bets that can be placed. In short, the object of the game is to finish as close to the number nine as possible in each hand. Players can place bets on whether the player hand or the dealer hand will win. Bets can also be placed on the less frequent outcome of a tie between the player and the dealer ("the banker"). So again, there are only three types of bets that can be made.

Having said that, Baccarat does have a long history of players looking for trends and patterns throughout the game sessions, and in land based casinos there are always plenty of detailed scorecards and pencils available to track the games - something that many players utilize almost religiously.

One of the most popular and widely used betting strategies in Baccarat is the "Avant Dernier" system. This strategy is immensely popular among players in continental Europe and is indeed a very fun way to play Baccarat - however, this does not in any way imply that it is a long-term winning system.

"Avant dernier" is French and simply means "before last". The proposition of this strategy is to always bet on the second last winning result. For instance, if there is a winning sequence of banker-player-banker-banker, then the next bet will be placed on the banker. In this sequence, the second last win, (the third winning hand in this sequence), was banker. In contrast, if there is a winning sequence of player-banker-player-banker, then the next bet will be placed on the player. As you can see from these examples - and to avoid any confusion - this system does not require the hands to win exactly in turns since the bet will always be placed on the second last result!

The Avant Dernier system can be quite successful in those game sessions where the winning hand fluctuates between the player and the banker. Therefore, many casino players like this strategy since it does not require a large bankroll or the use of progressive betting. As described above, the Avant Dernier system is also a fun way to play the game of Baccarat.

So yes, casino games should be fun and exciting to play - but it is also about winning the money! As with every gambling or betting strategy, it is impossible for the Avant Dernier system to be profitable at all times. This lies in the nature of casino gambling as the house always have a slight advantage against their players. The Avant Dernier strategy will sooner or later find itself in trouble (and face loosing streaks) when long winning sequences occur in "double chopping"-pairs like banker-banker-player-player-banker-banker and so forth. The system does however prevent from losing money when very long winning streaks of a single winning hand takes place, like player-player-player-player and so on. This is probably one of the reasons the Avant Dernier system is so popular among casino players.

Yes, it is true - when considering odds only, the safest bet one can place in Baccarat at any given time is to place a bet on the banker. Regardless of winning streaks and patterns, the banker bet will always have the most favorable odds for winning the hand prior to being dealt. But then again, when playing long game sessions with many, many hands - placing banker bets only will not prevent long losing streaks when the other hand starts to win several times in a row.

I guess it is all a matter of taste and your gambling style when playing casino games. Some players will frown upon not following the mathematical odds at all times. Others will accept a slight detour from these odds, as long as this prevents them from loosing their entire bankroll when these inevitable long runs occur sooner or later.

Casino Secrets - The Ultimate Strategy to Win in Casino Gambling

Let me show you the Casino secrets that professional gamblers do or possess when they are heading to the Casinos.

Many amateur gamblers will fail to see, even though the strategies are so easy and logical. This is where Casinos take total advantage of this phenomenon and cause many gamblers to go home empty-handed.

Casino Tips To Remember:-   

1. How Much Money To Bring To The Casinos.

For the common people who are eager to get a rush of the casinos from all over the world, it is definitely ridiculous to tell you guys that, "Hey, bring about 5% of your bankroll and don't get burned especially if you are on a losing streak!"

Let's settle for 20% shall we? For example, if your payroll that you bring back home is $2000 and you have decided to bring along 20%, that comes to $400. I do not encourage you guys and girls to continuously take from your salary that your kids are waiting for you to feed them as bread and butter money!

2. Leave All Your Valuables And Cash Behind.

From point one, make sure you leave all your credit cards at home and cash cards and atm cards and any other cards which you can extract money from. Leave your valuables at home too! Just take your 20% and a fair sum for your logging and food.

3.  Play Only With What You Have - Why That 20%.

Now here comes the reasoning for the somewhat big 20% that I have requested. First, if you took with you, say, 5% of your payroll, that will come to a miserable $100, if your salary is $2000, which cannot do much and makes no sense for your long ride to the casinos. Of course, at this point, I am talking about the lowest point which you can take to the casinos! If you have more cash, you can reduce that 20% to 10%.

Secondly, if you lose $100, usually, you will go home with a revengeful heart. That is where casinos are dying to extract from each and every gambler! They are counting on your return with a vengeful heart! When you do this, the first thing in your brain is surely to win back that $100. And after that? Of course to make a killing!

Stop! That is exactly where one and every gambler loses their sense of logic and let their emotions take control. Lose that revengeful heart! Count your blessings that you only lost $100 and not $1000!

Hence, that 20% will suffice and minimize any illogical reasoning your revengeful heart might have. do me a favour - Put all your dreams behind, put all your emotions behind and put all your love and hate behind at home. Now you are ready to head to the casino with a logical mind!

4. Social Etiquette.

When down at the casinos, remember to dress smart. Why? If you look dull, chances are you are going to be dull too. On the other hand, do not over dressed, or look as if you are the richest guy. Your aim is to stay low, look smart but without the casino management noticing you. Smile to the dealer and the patrons around you. It makes the table you are playing more pleasant and in Chinese terms, better "feng shui" in the atmosphere. If you are losing, don not show a moody face; it will not get you more money and only stresses you up.

5.Do not be overwhelmed by the casino environment!

Do not be dazed by the crazy lights and atmosphere in certain parts of the casino and dash there to play cause the casino advertisements taunt you so! Walk around and gauge the surrounding instead. Do not let your heart takes you to that jackpot or roulette table cause that sweet young thing or voluptuous chick is looking at you! Keep logical! You are here to win Big Money! The girls can always come later after that!

6. Learn Your Game.

If you are playing blackjack, go and learn some basic card playing strategies before embarking on the actual table game. If you go in with a complete lack of game play, the patrons that are on that table will most likely frown and might even ask you to leave. Though they do not have the right to do that, but nevertheless, a bad atmosphere is already created. Do not do that. Learn your game first. Get a Book. or search the internet. There are tons and tons of basic casino game rules and strategies that you can enlist the help of. And they are all free!

7. Feel the good table for playing.

Do not hit the first table when you enter the casino! Feel around and look around. When you locate the table with your minimum bet, also try to get one without the smokes and crazy old men or loud women! They tend to spoil the atmosphere!

A good table that you can play and win is most likely the table with the most noise! And most likely, the seats are all taken! Nowadays, you can "hitch" a ride on the lucky player with your chips and watch how your chips multiply exponentially! The good table tend to have players with chips stacking up nicely and the players are all in a good jolly mood and chatting with one another. Usually when the players are winning, the probability is that the dealer is having a bad run. Things will turn around later on, so grab that chance as soon as possible! A good table ensures you are set for the day and your gambling game plan is already half won!

8. Do not be overwhelmed when you are winning!

If you have a good table to play, chances are, you will get carried away and start betting bigger bets! Don't! Don't! Don't! Keep your bets to the same sum that you had been playing and be aware of the total money accumulated from your winnings and where your chips are! If you can, have a jacket with an inside pocket and zip or button to hold your good chips. This also prevents the crowd from noticing your abundance of wealth accumulation! After your good winning streak, go and change your chips to cash and if possible, send your money straight back home! There are now very convenient ways to do that!

The aim of all this is to prevent your heart from running wild and you might want to start crashing on almost any table or jackpot cause you start to believe you are on to having a good time! Don't! That is exactly what the casino is seducing you with! The dazzling lights and pretty girls and loud jackpot noises and people cheering are the keys to making you lose that logical control in your abundance of wealth that you have accumulated! If you cannot control, then you should not even come to the casino in the first place!

9. Know when to walk away.

If on the other hand, you start losing, you need to stay calm. If you chance to have consecutive 3 losses, you might want to walk away from that table. You might want to set a sum, say to lose $300 or if you are winning, to win a targeted $3000. Do not be greedy either way. If you win and then all of a sudden, the losing streaks come, you might want to watch that 3 consecutive losses or that first $300 to lose. In that way, you are aware of your wins and losses and are ready to walk away and walk out without the pain and lost of logical.

Try to watch how your chips are, keep them in piles where you know how to count them at a glance or through finger feeling. It is best to keep the chips into your pocket when you are winning so that you segregate the wins against what you can lose. Of course, this means you need to be very alert and learn some art of smooth motion without alerting greedy losers who are out to rob the winners! Be aware that some of these are pretty and voluptuous women!

So are you ready to hit out to the casinos? Good luck and may the best man wins! Have fun!

Casino Cash Cow - A Review

The business of online Casinos is hotting up, with more and more traditional Casinos taking their gambling and betting online. This presents an opportunity for some easy money for any web surfer who can take the time to sign up to an Internet gambling site.

As an incentive to get us to gamble on their site, Casinos are now offering welcome bonuses. As competition gets fiercer, these welcome bonuses are getting larger, and casinos are offering more incentives to encourage users to signup.

The art of scalping - of signing up, taking the bonus, and running - has risen alongside the size of the bonuses. Casinos have fought back by placing restrictions on new users. For example you cannot withdraw your bonus without placing a certain number of wagers, or you need to place at least one wager worth X dollars.

Scalpers retaliated by putting their bonus money into games with the lowest house edge, like Craps, Baccarat, Roulette, and Blackjack. Casinos again stepped up the ante by placing minimum wager restrictions on these games, or lengthening the time period between a new user signing up and being able to withdraw their funds.

So, there is a lot of bonus money available, but the casinos are making it as difficult as they can to get your hands on that cash. This is where a guide from an experienced online gambler comes in handy, and the best one currently available is Casino Cash Cow, by professional online gambler Dan Soulsby.

The Casino Cash Cow guide goes in to detail on how to beat the casinos in the signup bonus game. It comes with a list of casinos giving the best bonuses, and with the most lax restrictions. After covering the basics of signing up and claiming your bonus, Casino Cash Cow goes into the details on how to easily reclaim that money - with interest!

Starting with Blackjack, and then moving on to Roulette once the minimum wager requirements have been met, Casino Cash Cow is an excellent guide for anyone who can spare some time with their web browser and wants to pick up some easy money. For a limited time Dan is also offering his $99 gambling guide for free - just sign up to his newsletter. The newsletter is where Dan shares his tips and updates for his techniques, and is a very valuable and useful resource in it's own right.

Unlike most of the guides to online casinos, the author of Casino Cash Cow knows his system works - which is why he offers an 8 week, no quibble money back guarantee. Give it a whirl and claim your online casino bonus money today.

Playing Craps At Your Favorite Casino

The first game I ever learned how to deal in a Casino was Blackjack. In the corner of the training room was this Craps table where new dealers were learning to deal the game of Craps. I was amazed how intense these new dealers were and how difficult they claimed it was to learn the game of Craps. It was then that I decided I needed to find out what this was all about.

In a Casino the craps table always seems to be the loudest and busiest. People are always cheering, laughing, screaming and joking with each other. So when this happens squeeze right in and secure your spot for this fast action filled table game. Dice is where the action is. All good dealers love to deal this game.

Like every bet that happens in the Casino, craps is designed for the house to win and the player to lose. I have noticed that over time the player almost always loses. The best that you should hope for when playing craps is to minimize your loses and have the most fun you could ever imagine.

The secret to craps is to find a mix of numbers that allows you to walk away from the craps table with a smile on your face, even if you lost. The secret to having fun is to play longer, to walk away with some left in your pocket, or maybe even as a winner for the trip.

So if what I say is true, that players rarely are winners at the craps table, then why do people just flock to this game? Well like I mentioned earlier, it is where the action is. It is the game where people are truly having a great time, they are loud and happy at the craps table.

In summary, if you want to play where the noise is, where the experienced gamblers usually play, then when you walk into the casino with the lights flashing, the slot machines chiming, walk straight to the craps table. Get in there beside that hot shooter and have the fun you went there for.

Good Luck!

How to Clean Your Vegas Casino Poker Chips

If you are the proud owner of Vegas Casino Poker chips, I am sure that you take special pride in your ownership. These exquisite Poker chips are desired by many due to the unique style, structure, and appeal that they possess. Many do not realize that a large part of the maintenance of these Poker playing products includes cleaning them. In this informative how-to article, you will learn the steps and information on how to clean your Vegas Casino Poker chips.

Step 1:

The first thing that you must understand when it comes to cleaning poker chips is that certain types are more prone to accumulating dirt, and grime than other types. The ingredients in poker chips play a large role in this. Poker chips that are composed of clay, for instance, are much more likely to accumulate debris and even fade as time progresses. However, chips that are created by implementing the use of ceramic are less likely to accrue various types of debris. If you are interested in cleaning your gaming chips for the purpose and intent of maintaining them, learn what they are composed of first.

Step 2:

The next step in properly cleaning your Vegas casino poker chips is to determine their overall value. If you are collector, for example, you want to avoid using basic cleaning methods on your poker chips. You should ensure that the chips are placed in a display to avoid contact with consistent levels of dirt and grime. If your poker chips are basic and not so valuable, you may be able to use simple methods of cleaning them. There are many professional cleaners that you can implement in order to ensure maintenance on your valuable chips. If you elect to clean your poker chips yourself, it is important to do it in a proper manner. If you visit a casino, for instance, you can find machines that actually wash your chips for you!

Step 3:

Let's say that you do not have access to a poker chip cleaning machine. That is fine. There are still ways that you can clean those beautiful poker accessories! All you have to do is purchase a soft bristle toothbrush. The best types, in my opinion, are the ones that are sold in the infant and toddler departments of local department stores, like Wal-Mart. Once you have picked up the toothbrush, get some detergent that is considered to be mild by nature.

Step 4:

When you get home, take a small cup and add one half of a teaspoon of the detergent to warm water. Make sure that you mix the water and the detergent well.

Step 5:

Be sure that you avoid taking your Vegas casino poker chips and putting them in water, or in the mixture that you have created. All you want to do is dip the soft bristle toothbrush that you have purchased for the endeavor in the cup.

Step 6:

Take the toothbrush and gently start to scrub the top, bottom, and sides of your poker chips.

Step 7:

If there is an inlay on the poker chip, be sure to avoid cleaning this section with the toothbrush as it may damage it. Take a damp cloth to clean this area. Otherwise, water and soap may seep inside the inlay.

Step 8:

Once the Vegas casino poker chips are cleaned, simply allow them to air dry. Once they are dry, you may consider oiling them like Professional Poker Players do.

Step 9:

Be sure to check out the Resources section listed below for some great links on Vegas casino poker chips, Poker articles, and more!

How to Win Casino Slots - Play Slot Machines Casino the Right Way

If you want to learn how to win Casino slots, then read this. You will learn how to play slot machines Casino the right way.

There is no really a single way to win the slots. But, there are ways to lessen losing moments and increase winning opportunities. Here are the tips and tricks on how to win at slot machine:

1. Having knowledge on how slot machines operate - Yes, this is the first and very basic step in order to win. Slot machines are actually programmed and microprocessors are used to power them. These microprocessors use RNGs or random number generators which are the ones that determine the spin outcome. Have you noticed that when you play with the slot machine, you get good and perfect combination's in the first and second reels, but when you check the third reel, your almost perfect combination gets ruined? This is one trick that RNGs are programmed for - to give players that feeling of suspense and "almost".

2. Knowing about random number generators - These generators produce many random numbers every second. These are sets of numbers which determine the combination that will be displayed when the reel stops. The sets of numbers are set in random. With this concept, it is like it is very hard to win. It seems there are fewer chances to get a perfect combination - with many seconds in a day! It is hard to hit the right second or time to hit the right reel combination. So when a player stops playing with the machine and another player came and played and won the jackpot, the first player may feel very bad for not continuing to play. However, the point there is that, the first player must have spun the button at the very same and exact second the second player had spun the reel. If he spun it one second later or earlier, the combination will be entirely different. The principle is like tossing a coin - there is a fifty percent chance that it will land on heads and another fifty percent that it will land on tails.

3. Understanding slot machine payback percentage and its effect on winning - We should bear in mind that ALL slot machines have programmed payback percentage in their processors. This identifies the houses edge. It ranges usually from 90 to 97 percent. The principle is that the higher the percentage, the higher the payback. For example, if the slot has a payback rate of 95 percent, then overtime, the machine will have a payback of 97 percent of money that it takes in. This is a good technique by Casinos to entice players to come back and spend money. If you are a player, keep track of the slots with higher paybacks as you play around.

4. Looking for slot machines that have true multipliers - You can determine a machine with true multiplier if it pays twice the payout amount for the second coin as it does for the first coin. Avoid slots that penalize players if they do not play the maximum bet.

So, there are the basic principles and tips on how to win at slot machines.
