Just got back from Las Vegas
Saw a craps shooter throw and pressed 4 hard 8's in a row (not consecutive throws, but without easy 8's or 7's in between)
The house (Main St Station) would only let him bet $200 max on the prop.
He started with $5, pressed to $25, pressed to $100, and pressed to $200.
An "easy" $3000.
That takes a fearless bettor, considering throwing one hard 8 is tough enough.
After that I stopped at the Plaza to see their electronic poker room.
No games going, but they said they usually spread a .50-$1 no limit game in the evening.
The floor man was good enough to make me a Poker Room Players Card without loading a buy-in.
I don't know if the e-poker card is unique or an older card no longer in use (the bottom brown card).
The J, Q, K cards are current. Because I'm a diamond total rewards holder, they automatically upgrade me to the K level and gave me the J and Q cards. They have an A card, but its equivalent to the 7 stars level.
Let me know if the brown card is unique to the poker room or if its an older card.
