m1k2s3 Posted April 10, 2015 #1 Share Posted April 10, 2015 I'm curious how things work in the casino if you don't use cash. I read everything is charged to your account so how do you place bets on the table games and slots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted April 10, 2015 #2 Share Posted April 10, 2015 (edited) So far the slots take cash ... USD paper bills I am not on the tables but I imagine you buy chips at the casino cashier Edited April 10, 2015 by LHT28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffreys1 Posted April 10, 2015 #3 Share Posted April 10, 2015 I've never played the slots but at the table games you use casino chips which can be bought for cash or charged to your account. They charge 5% if you charge it to your account so I would not suggest that method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m1k2s3 Posted April 10, 2015 Author #4 Share Posted April 10, 2015 What are the table limits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgee Posted April 16, 2015 #5 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Usually 10 and 5 dollar tables, especially on R (smaller) Oceania ships. On R class $25 tables are available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgee Posted April 17, 2015 #6 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Correction to above post. Meant to say that on O class (larger) ships, there usually is a $25 table available. Should also add that, effective June 1 of this year, Oceania is changing the management of their casinos…getting rid of their current contractor, Century Casinos. So, things could change.

Missymo Posted April 17, 2015 #7 Share Posted April 17, 2015 So happy to hear the management is being changed on Oceania. . Was on a 24 day trip down the Amazon and some of the casino staff on the Regatta were shockingly rude, found out then that they were consigned and not part of the great Oceania staff. One even stated to my husband (who was one of the few using the casino )to the effect "I hope you lose". Over 650 people on board and never more than 3-6 people using casino at any one time during our cruise. Needless to say we stopped using the casino and apparently other people did too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kekilia Posted April 17, 2015 #8 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Have to say that I am not a gambler. In fact, I lived near Reno and only went to a casino twice in 30 years. Never went to Las Vegas. But, on cruise ships I enjoy sitting at a table with a drink and schmoozing while dropping $100 on a $5 blackjack table. I find it just doesn't work if there's only a few people in the casino. It's got to have a party atmosphere, with music and talk and traffic. Hoping the Med cruise will bring out a good crowd! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
