tcneal Posted February 6, 2023 #1 Share Posted February 6, 2023 I'm wondering if anyone has recent experience with the casino on Voyager class ships, specifically the Explorer? I'm Prime and mainly a Craps player and I have been disappointed on my recent sailings. Just got off the Radiance and they removed the Craps table all together. Nice ship but I probably will not be sailing that class if the others in the class now have the same layout. Another sailing on Odyssey has Craps but the table was closed most of the time because they didn't have enough dealers, which I totally get in this time. I have seen recent walkthroughs of the Explorer and the table is there but I don't know if it is operating. If anyone has been on recently, I would love to hear your experience. I wish this is something they would publish, but that might be asking for too much. Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itsnowjoke Posted February 6, 2023 #3 Share Posted February 6, 2023 I used to be a craps dealer in Reno a long, long time ago, I wonder if they'd let me volunteer to step in and deal?😁 Great game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could use your help. It is the hardest game to deal. That is why they have a hard time staffing craps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teddybear231 Posted February 8, 2023 #8 Share Posted February 8, 2023 I'm following along as I will be sailing on Explorer in March and am also a craps player. I was just on the Freedom in November, and even though the craps table did wind up opening every night, it was the last game to open. The first night it didn't open until after 10:30pm. Not sure what the reasoning was, but hopefully that's not the case on Explorer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EleventyBangBang Posted February 25, 2023 #10 Share Posted February 25, 2023 I was the only player at the table on the Independence in Europe. The dealers told me it just wasn't a very popular game in that part of the world among the locals, just an occasional Yank such as myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told that it's not very big in Europe and since MSC is more of an European company, no ships have Craps table. Not sure if that is true, but it explains the no table.

resetjet Posted February 26, 2023 #12 Share Posted February 26, 2023 You should be fine. Oasis and i think oddysey has two tables. But staffing is an issue. Sometimes the run half a table due to dealer shortage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me a full, loud table and I'm in my happy place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHIP TRAVELER Posted February 26, 2023 #14 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Just off the Allure. There was a lot of craps action every night but the open table was on the smoking side so we didn't play. Surprised me that the highest denomination in the rack was black with the amount of money spread. We were sailing out of Galveston and a lot Texans are big gamblers inspite of living in a non casino state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
