I'd have said "Good Luck from AZDuffman" but there is no such thing as luck, just probability and outcome.

Anyways, while I always had some interest in gambling, it has really grown since I first visited Vegas about 3-4 years ago. Been there a few times since. Once for a job interview teaching english in Japan (would have been *so* cool!) and once because a guy I work with and I were in AZ, away from family, and had nothing to do on Christmas, so we hit Vegas! He was genuinely impressed that I showed him where to get the $1 shrimp cocktail and the $100 hamburger in the same afternoon!

So I have read most everything I can on casino gambling and will only sit down to poker, blackjack, sports, and maybe craps pass line + full odds only. Put another way, I want to WIN. For entertainment in Vegas I'll find a Rat-Pack Review Show somewhere.

I'd like to discuss strategy on any of these games. I'd love to be on a team someday, also learn dice control. I'm a person who would rather practice for hours to make easy cash at a casino than work those hours at something crappy.

I also deal blackjack at parties and am hoping to possibly be a dealer and work my way up in the casino industry. So anyone with advice or looking to chat please do so. I'd be happy to post regular items here in hopes of getting a real community going.

It's nice to see how little things can make someone happy Smile

You are in this forums team, though it is small at the moment. Blush

I'm also hoping to get a real community here, but first we need to get on good terms with google. How? Well, quality posts and google should pick it up eventually and put it in results page. (at least I hope)

Thanks for sticking with this forum, and not giving it up.

Who knows, maybe there will even be a big community gathering in Las Vegas one day Cool

Also wanted to ask, do you play online Poker? I know there's a ban on online gambling in US, but many Americans play online anyway.
