Q&A: What casino table games are winnable?

admin — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 23:56:27 +0000

Question by bob c: What casino table games are winnable?
All I know is that texas holdem is winnable (player vs player), but most other games (roulette, craps, ,etc.) at the casino have a “house advantage”, rendering you unable to win in the long run. What other games at casinos, like at Las Vegas, are actually winnable, provided you have the skill?
Sorry, just to clarify, I meant what games are winnable statistically in the long term. All I can think of is holdem since you’re not playing against the house, blackjack if you count cards. I don’t think baccarat works because even though your chance of winning is greater, the amount you win is less.
Well you’re not exactly correct in saying you can’t win poker either because they take their rake… you just don’t win as much as if they didn’t take their rake. The reason you can win is because you are winning money from fellow players, and the house takes some of it. Blackjack if card counted, you can win, which is legal too, but they might kick you out.

Black Jack, Baccarat, Roulette are all winnable in short term. If you have lucky break and win some money, grab it and run..

Answer by Bruno
Do it yourself. It’s easy. Buy the felt from a billiard/pool supply company. All you need is a good stapler, a box cutter or pair of scissors,pair of pliers, staple remover. Remove the old felt and if necessary remove the old staples,
or simply hammer them in and staple over them. If the foam is in good shape you need not remove it. If it does need replacing, you can buy foam at any arts and crafts store. Cut the foam to fit the table exactly. Do not glue it. Make sure the felt is bigger than the table so you can work with it. Lay felt on table, attach with a couple of staples on one end, then do the same on the opposite end, making it snug but not too tight. Repeat on other ends, then attach staples about 1 inch apart, making sure felt is snug all around. Cut felt in an x shape for dealers tray if there is one and staple. Cut felt all around on bottom edge of table. If there is no armrest then staple on bottom of table.

Q&A: texas holdem full table micro stakes situation?

admin — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 23:55:55 +0000

Question by dunhate235: texas holdem full table micro stakes situation?
PlayerB Stack size: 135
PLAYER E 100 Left of the hijack
PLAYER G (You)120 CO

Game type: .50 / 1 NL
Your image: TAG
Opponent’s image: Player B has been ultra tight and Player E has been a borderline maniac
Your hand: QsQd

The setup: You’ve been at the table for about an hour with
Player B and they haven’t been playing many hands. They’ve shown down a few hands and each time they’ve been strong. Player E has only been at the table for a dozen orbits or so and has been very aggressive. Here player B makes it $ 4 and Player E promptly re-raises to $ 16. You are on the cutoff with Queens and everyone else has folded to you. What’s your play?
Johnathan i completely disagree… In a cash game its all about finding a good spot. In a tournament when you’re short stack or the blinds are getting too big then you might consider going allin.

For all you guys saying raise.. lets see UTG+1 just raised 4xbb in such horrible position . Let screams 1010-AA, AK. Then you get raised by some guy in like middle position who raises it to 16xbb. Okay hes loose, but is he a dumb fuck? There are what, like 5 people behind him to act? He has at least AQ,AK, 99-AA. Im pretty sure this is -ev. Well lets say you do raise. Then player b folds and player e raises allin. Now what? Are you going to fold with around 40% of stack in the pot (i suck at math, but thats my estimation)? If player b pushes at best you are in a race. Plz correct me if im incorrect with what the oppenents hand ranges are.

Well anyways i ruled out raising (which might be wrong). Lets say you call and player b calls. You flop an overpair now what? Player B pots it wtf to do?
No tank i dont mean AAx, KKx. I mean when the flop comes down 27J. And lets say the tight player pots it. Now what? He could ezily have AK and is c-betting, but he could also have JJ, QQ, KK.
i cant choose best answer.. i dont know who is right.

Best answer:

Answer by Lee H
Go all in. It’d be silly to fold this hand before the flop.

Now, if Player E raised, and player B re-raised, then I would CONSIDER laying it down. But too many people think AK or AQ are hands good enough to go all in with, so I would not automatically assume you are beat even in this situation.

In texas holdem, if all 5 cards on the table are the same suite is it a dead hand?

admin — Tue, 03 Jan 2012 07:57:33 +0000

Question by : In texas holdem, if all 5 cards on the table are the same suite is it a dead hand?
Is it a dead hand? I heard rumors like you can’t use a flush for the hand your using anymore. What really happens when there are all hearts on the flop?

Best answer:

Answer by Martin_EST
In Texas Hold’em, you use 2 of your hole cards and 5 cards on the table to make the best 5 card combination.
Examples (h=hearts):
1) You have 2h3h Opponent has 4h 5h
The board is 6h 8h Jh Kh Ah
Best combination is the board, so it’s a tie.

2) You have Ah 2h Opponent has 4h 5h
The board is 3h 6h 8h Jh Kh
You have the best 5 card combination (Ah Kh Jh 8h 6h)

3) You have Ah 2h Opponent has Kh Qh
The board is Jh 9h 7h 5h 4h
You have the best 5 card combination (Ah Jh 9h 7h 5h, opponent has Kh Qh Jh 9h 7h)

4) You have 7h 2h Opponent has 4h 5h
The board is Ah Kh Qh Jh 3h
You have the best 5 card combination (Ah Kh Qh Jh 7h)

Hope this helps

Question by chriscrusaders2003: I want to host a 4 table Texas Holdem Poker Tournament. What is the best Stakes and chip structure for this?
Each table will probably hold up to 6 or 7 persons

Best answer:

Answer by mrplayer1603
if your havin 28 people you probably want a 50 to 100dollar buy in each person should start with around 5000 in chips and blinds shuld start at 50-100 with them going up every 30 minutes. the top six places should get paid. first place usually pays about 32 percent of the pot and you can break down the rest however u like it. this is how it i sdone in the casino where i work so it should make for a good tourney.

Poker Table Tops-A General Overview

admin — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 07:56:33 +0000

Poker Table Tops-A General Overview

Poker tables can be broadly divided into Professional poker tables and furniture poker tables. Generally these tables use 4′x8′ plywood sheets. Most have rails some have cup holders some even have interchangeable playing surfaces, some are covered with poker cloth or billiard felt or velveteen. Most table designs have a couple of cases of beer in it.

There are innumerable types of poker table tops to complement the different types of tables. Right from folding poker tops to furniture poker table top cum dining sets, the choices are just too many. The beauty of a folding poker table top is that any room can be converted into a poker room by virtue of these table tops. Usually a wide range of accessories are also available to adorn these table tops like artwork, button chip racks etc.

Poker table shapes are also varied and each has its own set of advantages and disadvantages. Octagon poker table tops are usually good for putting on round or square tables and Texas Holdem poker tables are suitable for putting on rectangular tables. Most people however prefer oval shaped poker tables to octagonal ones. Though many feel octagonal ones save space, most others feel oval ones can accommodate more players. Moreover the latter looks more authentic whereas the octagonal ones get overcrowded.

Professional poker tables are or those who use their tables most frequently.

Often a customized poker table top can be constructed that can convert an existing table to one that can hold a game of poker. Since these table tops are designed to be placed on existing tables they are made of thinner material that is not too heavy, this allows storage easily as well. Premium quality poker tables available in oak or maple wood can cost anywhere between 00-7000, whereas low range tables made of plastic and metal would cost around 0. Poker table tops are available in different makes and more often range between -100.

Many people prefer building their own table tops and various plans are available online. For those who do not believe in making their own there is a whole range of organizations offering customized poker tables and table tops. These customized tops can be designed in any way according to owner’s preference. Some do not prefer chip racks and would rather have wells; some want their beer holders on the side and some in the middle etc. Some even upgrade their table top felt to include their initials or other graphics on it.

A poker table top would be a nice gift for someone who possesses a set of chips.
