      <![CDATA[
        <p>Ive talked about it in another thread, about their bubble craps games, so I thought Id give a little review of this racino.<br />
It located in the southern west part of Queens NY.<br />
less than 10 minutes from JFK airport, 20 minutes from LaGuardia airport.<br />
It does not have a hotel attached, but there are airport brand name hotels scattered within 5 minutes of it.</p>

<p>Parking-there is free outdoor parking, although on weekends it gets pretty tough to find a spot unless you park far away and walk.<br />
Indoors, there is a lot that is usually empty during the day. Its right next to the casino, I can never figure out why people choose to park outdoors and walk a lot further than in the indoor lot. There is a 5 dollar fee to park indoors, but if you slash your players card, its free.(and players cards are free)<br />
Valet-its 10 dollars, all the time, and I insist when my wife goes with her girlfriends in the evening, she lets valet park her car, for safety reasons. We don&#8217;t know anyone whos been mugged there, but Im for safety all the time, no reason to tempt fate. A couple of middleaged women walking to their car at 10 pm at night are easy prey for some young hoodlum. And where there are casinos, there are hoodlums.</p>

<p>Subway-they are currently working on a new subway entrance that goes directly from subway platform to casino, and it looks like it will be completed soon, I don&#8217;t know date.<br />
Its the A subway line in NY.<br />
If one is staying in manhattan and wants to visit, I suggest going in a group. as I don&#8217;t think the A line is the best subway line. It runs through all the worst nabes in Brooklyn and queens. During the day it is fine, but I wouldn&#8217;t want to leave a casino with money and hop onto that train. Just my 58 years of life experiences growing up in NY.</p>

<p>Resorts world at aqueduct, is the only racino in NYC limits. No table games, but they have bubble craps, simulated craps, simulated roulette, real wheel roulette with video terminal betting, and real card dealt baccarat.<br />
Ofcourse, they have 4500 video slots and poker machines.</p>

<p>Typical looking casino. Food court, buffet(overpriced for a casino, but they get it. Not the best food, not the worst. The worst buffet I ever had at a casino was in Salamanca NY, the indian casino, food was dried out and horrible)<br />
Food court has some nice places to eat, a NY style deli, wolfgang puck express, and a lot more. All are expensive, as in most casinos Ive visited in my life. But food is ok, for food court food.</p>

<p>It seems aqueduct racino caters to the heavy Asian population in queens ny. Baccarat has the most seats out of all games, and I believe its a 25 dollar minimum, and the seats are always packed at nights or weekends. Between the few baccarat sections, there must be 250-350 seats available. Its actual cards being dealt by machine, you bet on computer terminal.<br />
There are also a ton of roulette wheels, a ball is popped in while wheel turns by machine, but at least its not a simulated roll. You make same bets as regular roulette wheels in any vegas or ac casino. There are some simulated roulette games, don&#8217;t know why people choose them over the real wheel.</p>

<p>Bars, well, they have some small ones, and in the center, there is a huge bar, with an enormous Tv screen, always playing sports or espn network.<br />
the large tv can be viewed from downstairs bar or upstairs bar. Sometimes on weekends there is a live band playing on a stage above bar downstairs.<br />
The bar is usually very, very crowded on weekends. </p>

<p>Craps-bubble craps. They have some simulated craps games, but I only play bubble craps. The dice are actual dice that are popped in a &#8220;trouble&#8221; bubble style pop/bouncer and you bet exactly as you are in vegas or AC, but you bet on terminal.<br />
The terminal I was at this morning, was 10 dollar minimum table bet(combined bets, but you must have 10 on table to play) and 1000 max bet on table.<br />
You choose what denomination chip you want to play with, and you press your finger on your bet on screen, which has all the bets, like a private felt.<br />
You have to be careful, not let finger hit anything else, or a bet will appear there, but you can erase that bet fast enough.</p>

<p>When a point is made, if you have a pass line bet, the computer asks you if you want 2,3,4, or 5 times odds. <br />
Its 3 -4 -5 odds.<br />
If you have a place bet on 8, and 8 becomes the point, the computer will ask you where to move it or take it off.<br />
at any time before roll of dice, you can just touch your bets and they will come off and back into your bank</p>

<p>heres some pictures of what bubble craps looks like. I took it with my old cell, so sorry for cruddy pictures, just to give you an idea.<br />
I tried to get a pic of the roll when I slid my 300 bucks into the machine this morning. I got there right after a point of 6 was established.\<br />
the machined popped/rolled 22 numbers then hit the 6. Its on the upper board, you might be able to see all the numbers it rolled, its also printed out on the bottom of your screen.<br />
The machine gives you 25 seconds to make/change/delete your bets, then it takes approx. 8 seconds for shaking of dice until the next 25 seconds start.<br />
Its constant, the games moves like that 24 hours a day.</p>

<p>first picture is the bubble at this group of craps video terminals(the third black die is used for sicbo, the other game that is available at the terminal, playing craps, you are only interested in the 2 white dice)<br />
the pic with the numbers shows all the rolls, I believe its clear enough.<br />
The other pic shows my video screen, I was come betting this morning after I won 245 dollars on the 6 and 8 on that first good roll.</p>

<p>I was right under my walk away with what I won, but decided since I was on a 4 straight casino wins streak, Id stick it out until I was either up 5 or even.<br />
I let myself go, and I ended up losing 146 dollars, very upset with myself, but I was going for it. I had a nice win at Mount airy this past week, and had picked up almost 400 dollars at aqueduct a week before that.

        <p>Hi everyone, I got my March flyer from the Atlantic Club and on the page with the calendar it says &#8220;New Limits, A better game&#8221;.&nbsp; Does anybody know what the new limits are?&nbsp; The ONLY reason I go down to play craps in Atlantic City is because of the $5 tables at the Atlantic Club even on a Friday night.&nbsp; If there has been a change to a $10 limit, I&#8217;ll drive the 10 minutes to Parx for my craps action or drive the same distance it is to AC and instead go to Wilkes-Barre and play $5 craps at the Mohegan Sun.

        <p>Now that Maryland Live has table games, can anyone tell me if Charlestown offers more than 2x odds at craps?&nbsp; I haven&#8217;t been to Charlestown in 6 months mainly due to that lack of higher odds.&nbsp; I live the same distance from both casinos and plan on going to shoot dice next week but I figure Maryland minimums would be $25 at best while Charlestown would have $10.&nbsp; Can anyone tell me if the number of players at Charlestown has lessened since Maryland opened table games?

        <p>Looks like I will be in town for one night on Dec 6th. Wondering what the conditions of the tables are after being open for 8 months.</p>

<p>Bouncy? Long tables? or 12 foot cushiony?</p>

<p>Side bets? Other DIs around? Nice dealers? strict on hitting back wall?</p>

<p>Odds? Table limits on a Thursday night to early Friday am?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

        <p>I&#8217;ll be there Friday April 26th and possibly Saturday April 27th.</p>

<p>According to their website, they always have $5.00 tables 24 hours / day.&nbsp; (Doesn&#8217;t say WHAT tables or if Craps is included.)&nbsp; Do they have the Fire bet? </p>

<p>If anyone is going to be there at that time, I&#8217;d sure like to shoot some Craps with you!</p>

        <p>Hi all guys!</p>

<p>I was just wondering if there’s someone else from Europe at this forum. I was searching about craps tables at Europe and found a website listing all the craps tables in the world but it’s definitely not updated as it still shows two tables here at Greece which closed years ago. </p>

<p>If someone knows about casinos with craps tables here in Europe I would be very happy if he’d inform me. </p>

<p>Thanks a lot!
