lele100 Posted January 25, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I just came off the Vista loved the ship hated roulette they changed it now they give two dollars chips instead of one. Which if let's say the minimum for the table is 10 and you want to bet 10 dollars they have just cut your chances in half if you like to spread out on different numbers. Is this just on the Vista or fleet wide? Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micahs Grandad Posted January 25, 2017 #2 Share Posted January 25, 2017 If less people play the table now they will go back to where I would play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cb at sea Posted January 26, 2017 #5 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Roulette has about (or worse) odds than slots. They're doing you a favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Micahs Grandad Posted January 26, 2017 #7 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Roulette has about (or worse) odds than slots. They're doing you a favor. I do believe slots do better for the house than any other game in the casino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cousin Eddie Posted January 26, 2017 #8 Share Posted January 26, 2017 (edited) OP, you are not alone. I also was not enthused when the dealer pushed out my half a stack of chips. But if you think about it, nearly all of the table games have evolved over the years to add gimmick rules or other tweaks to bring the odds even further towards the house. I go into the casino looking to have fun for a while and consider my losses as an entertainment cost. My plan for roulette is to play as long as I can on one buy in. Their new plan is to take my money twice as fast! :) Oh well, I'll still have fun for a bit before moving over to losing at blackjack or craps. As my namesake said about a dealer in Vegas: "That's it Clark... show him who's boss. It's people like you who come here and blow the family nest egg that built this town... not this pretty boy!"

I have a certain threshhold for how much i will lose in a night but do get annoyed when they raise the minimum. OK to lose it when playing for a few hours but when it can be lost in 10 minutes find that rather annoying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mufc99 Posted January 26, 2017 #10 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Roulette has about (or worse) odds than slots. They're doing you a favor. Casino has 5.26% advantage on you at double zero roulette. Most slots have you for about 20%. Here in Oz most casinos have ramped up their minimum bet to 5 bucks - hence, most potential punters give the game a miss.

Nic6318 Posted January 26, 2017 #13 Share Posted January 26, 2017 New way to separate us from our money faster:eek: hi there The good thing is that unless you have a problem, the choice is all yours. You don't have to give them anything. Like most people I enjoy the games, but I don't like losing. If I lose xxx, I stop playing, it doesn't matter if it is the first day or the last. I wouldn't ever consider buying a lottery ticket and look at how much money people are throwing away with those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwalk03 Posted January 26, 2017 #15 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Play Craps or Blackjack. Much Much better odds for you (if played correctly of course). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SadieN Posted January 26, 2017 #16 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Odds are getting worse with Black Jack. Many decks in a continuously shuffling SAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
