How long to learn to become a casino croupier? I'm organising a casino event for my department (around 150 employees), we could hire a casino company to come in and organize everything, but this would cost over £700. Alternatively we could use existing casino tables that we have access too, and some volunteer employees could be the croupiers. Would a couple of hours practice be sufficient for a croupier to learn the ropes and be reasonably profficient?
How should I dress to go to a Hewy Lewis concert at a casino? My husband is treating me to this concert at the Turning Stone Casino to celebrate the publication this spring of my first novel. I've never been to a casino let alone a concert at one. I've discovered they have table seating. What would the dress code for an event like this be?
Casino question? If you are under 21 but married to someone over 21 are you allowed to attend casino events such as concerts, shows, etc.

Stay at the casino or go for the temp Position? I started working at a casino about three months ago. This was my first casino job so I was not familiar with the work environment. I work in the office setting environment. The hours have no flexibility. The manager and I don’t get along. I like the job but the Managers that I work with like to discriminate others. It’s hard for me to express my opinions and thoughts. I work long hours and get no holidays off and have to work the casino events. But the benefits are great. I got a phone call for a temp to hire position that I qualify for. The position is for a top forbs company and the pay is 7,000 more then what I make now. The Temp position sounds good I am just scared that if I take the position it might just turn out to stay temporary. I had a friend tell me that the company that is using a temp service they don't keeps temps .I don’t know where she got that information from. The title is a management position and I really need a position that can be Felixable with my schedule since I have a family.
Question about hosting a Casino Night? Where I live, gambling is not legal. I want to host a casino night, and I found a company that will come out with their gaming tables, slot machines, play money, etc... My question is, how can I make it so that we make money off of the casino night, and guests can win "cash" prizes. Like I said, I know its illegal, but I'm sure there is some way around the legalities. The guests that would come to this event probably wouldn't want to participate if they can't win money.
Who is showing the Hatton vs Lazcano fight? I'm in Perth WA so it will be live at 5.30am on Sunday morning the 25th May. So far I am unable to find it on foxtel main event and the casino which would be the only venue open are unsure on whether they will be showing it, maybe because Fox is not broadcasting it? Someone help! I have to see Ricky's come back fight live!

Vegas casino question? can we have our 8 month old baby inside the casino with us while we play some slots? Or what are some good family events that we can enjoy out there?
How do you train yourself to be a good loser? We can't win everytime. Everyone stumbles upon a hurdle and not all can make it across. How do you console yourself and how do you accept losses as part of life? I mean for even everyday stuff like losing a sporting event, while playing cards with the family or at the casino, stock market investments etc.
Looking for gambling casinos between Dallas and Chicago? I am traveling this summer from Dallas to Chicago. I wanted to stop one night and do a little gambling. I know there are casinos in Oklahoma, but that won't be far enough from Dallas to justify the stop. It would leave the drive to Chicago a much too lengthy event. In addition, I will be traveling alone and would like a safe place to stay. Thanks for your time.

Where do they celebrate Mardi Gras in Las Vegas? I cannot find any mention of any gatherings or parties in Vegas for Mardi Gras this year, Tuesday, February 20th. I even checked the Rio Casino and cannot find a calendar of events that lists any special events on that day. What do the locals do? Anything?
Going to Philadelphia for the first time - where should I stay and what should I do? My wife and I (early 30s) will be in Philadelphia in mid-June and its basically our first time. What area should we stay in? We don't plan on getting a car so we'd like to be within walking distance of public transportation and some restaurants and sights. If you have a particular hotel recommendation, we are budgeting $150 per night. On hotwire I can get the Sheraton City Center for $120/night; good hotel, location and deal? As for what to do, we'll have four days open to play tourist. Other than the liberty bell and two famous cheesesteak places, what are some of the other must-do's? If we were to get a car for a day, where would you suggest going with it? or maybe there's enough to do and a car isn't needed? Any nearby casinos? outlet shopping centers? festivals/concerts/events going on 6/17 - 6/20? From Philly, we are travelling to D.C. Amtrak is $43/person and takes 2 hours. Are thre any better options we should look into? or any tips about riding Amtrak?
what would be good birthday plans for my husband? his birthday is in two days. we're a young couple in our mid-20's. i've come up with dead ends and/ or running out of ideas. there are no sporting events he would like to go to that are around the date. we need it to cost LITTLE to NO money (like $30 and under). the typical dinner and a movie will NOT work, it needs to be something fun and creative. we have two small kids so something preferably out of the house. we live in missouri and traveling is not an option. last year i had a surprise bday party at hooters when the broncos played that night. the year before we went to st louis for the weekend to the casinos. i feel like i have to compete with these prior years, but this year we have to keep it dirt cheap. i know he would be hurt if i didn't do anything so i at least need to get him a gift or make plans, but i really have no idea this year. please help! jessie H- it's not so much that we're comparing bday plans from the past, i guess what i meant to say is i wanted some ideas on how to make it just as fun as years past, but in a more creative way this year since the money was a little tighter the week around his bday. i know he wouldn't mind if it had to be cheap at all! he's not that type. i was just hoping to hear from people something other than candle light dinner, although VERY cheap, we do that all the time anyway.
Anyone know where I can find information on gambling? I want to find statistics on how much money is wagered gambling on the lottery, at casinos, internet poker, and other forms of gambling each year. Also, I would like to know the total revenue generated and problems that legalized gambling creates for society. Also, how much money is gambled on sporting events like the Super Bowl. I am giving a short talk on gambling in America for extra credit and I just want to go over a bunch of statistics.
Where can I find information on how much money is being bet on each team in a game? I'm wondering if there are websites that show how the public is betting on any sporting event...like for Ohio State vs Florida last night, what percentage took Ohio State and what percentage took Florida? I would imagine the biggest Vegas casinos and online sportsbooks track this, but is there any way for me to get the information before the games are played? Thanks!
Where to find a Casino for $300 Million? I have a Client with a serious request. He has partnered with group and they're looking to spend up to $300 million to acquire an operating casino. I have confirmed they do indeed have financials available to support such an acquisition with not less than $100 million in cash. Specifically, they're looking for a property with an entertainment venue capable of seating at least 1,500-2,000 people "in the round" for regular (weekly) televised boxing event promotions. I believe they'd even do a build out if the space was available. The Client has a 100+ page business plan and commitments from major boxing celebrities to bring to bear once they have a property to become affiliated with. Is there such a property in LV?
What do THE SUPER BOWL and your REAL ESTATE have in common? FORT LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA December 1, 2007- More than 100 properties will be put up for sale in the first-ever Super Bowl Real Estate Auction on January 27th 2007. Auction USA, a South Florida based Auction firm, will host the event at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.

For many, auctions have been their answer. These sellers are highly motivated & often their properties are well-maintained, of high market value & located in some of the most prized location
Why do people still think its impossible to win long term at gambling? And that the bookie always wins? With casino betting it is very different, everything is strictly controlled and in the casinos favour. You can not win long term in a casino because of the types of games you are playing. They have a casino edge, which cannot be manipulated into your favour. For instance a roulette table will pay you 35/1 for each number but because of the two zeros (or one in european roulette) there is actually 38 possible outcomes, hence why you cannot make money. But with sports betting and horse racing you have to remember the bookie is taking a gamble himself by offering odds against a certain event that he has no control of. He must guess the right probabilities and then offer odds (and a built in margin which will supposedly make him profit) accordingly. But bookies certainly do not always make money and where as a bookie must offer odds on any race or event, the astute bettor can pick and choose his investments very wisely and when he thinks that bookies calculations are flawed in his favour.
Has anyone had a party at Red Rock Resort and Casino in Las Vegas? I'm thinking of throwing a party there, maybe 30 people. Has anyone stayed in any of the suites, like Cherry Suite, Canyon Suite, Strip Suite? How many people would they hold? Could you have a sizeable dinner party type thing? Or if you've had an event in the bowling alley or one of the other party rooms, how did it go? Any advice would be fantastic. Thanks so much!!!
In the province of Ontario, how far can a smoker legally stand from the main entrance of their employers? Is there a legal distance you can stand from an entrance to your place of employment (mine is a major call centre)? If you have swiped out for the day and are technically "not on the clock", are you not officially than a member of the public/consumer? For example, tonight I swipe out, and am standing approx. 20 feet from the entrance waiting for my ride home. Does security have the right to have me written up and have this go on my work record? With this in mind, if they can do this, do they not also have to enforce this policy on the general public if an event is being held in the facility? For example, the night before, a casino was held and many many people were allowed to smoke directly in front of the main doors, literally between the "Thank you for not smoking" signs. Does the same rule not apply to them, or am I being discriminated against?
