Ok...its that time again. Bash Chad or leave him some solid advice.

I'm heading up to Atlantic City tomorrow afternoon with the girl and we're staying at some hotel. Anywho...anyone been?? Any suggestions on fun places to go to in the evening?? (ie mad dancing) How bout gambling places?? Anywhere better than others? I've never been and I'm quite excited to go. I've already had to keep the excitement down a notch since I know its not Las Vegas, but its only 2.5 hours away and damn it, its gonna be fun!!!

Expectantly awaiting your suggestions....or lack thereof...

I believe that Jvo has been multiple times and can give you advice.

He lived in that part of the country for awhile.

Oh yeah, I also meant to say Stay away from all Slot machines. They are there to steal all your money.

I personally like blackjack. I would stick with the tables.

BlackJack is cool!

I came out $80 ahead when I went to Vegas on the BJ tables. ...but that also includes $40 I found on the floor.

ok...so all in all a success. i may have come home down $100 to gambling and about another $100 down in liquor....but damn it, i had fun! Saturday nite was interesting, a russian restaurant with crazy vodkas. Quite tasty! Lots of slot machine goodness with drinks galore. We struggled to find a Blackjack table with a minimum of less that $25. I saw like 2 $15 BJ tables at each hotel casino. Needless to say, I didn't pull out the big bucks that night. Instead, we got sloppy drunk. However, I did play some blackjack today. Started out with $100, won up to 190, then proceeded to dip down to $10 on a 10 minimum table (must be a sunday thing). Thankfully, I managed to win back to even steven...I got many a good pic with my new super camera!!

I had fun and hope everyone else did too this weekend. Gambling is fun, but Gamblor needs to be contained!

Wish I got this message earlier!!!!

Where did you go?

You went to the Taj didn't you???? Nobody can resist the tackiest building in the world.

I really like the Claridge and Harrahs. They are two of the old school casinos and tend to cater to a younger (and poorer) crowd. Resorts is probably the nicest over all.

Did you go visit the mystics on the board walk? That was always one of my favorite parts.

Hmm....so that's where all the cheap tables were??? Haha....nope didn't go to the Taj, Claridge, or Harrahs.

We went to the Tropicana, Caesars, Ballys, and finally to the Borgata. The Borgata was straight up nice!!! Its new and quite cool! I wish you would have suggested those other poorer hotels. We couldn't find a table for under 25 on saturday nite. Thus we pulled on the slots handles.

Come visit JVO, we'll go gambling!! Its like 2.5 hours from here. Not too bad, and I have free hotel stays downtown if I want to use them.

Yeah, I know on weekends it is really tough to find a cheap bj game. Claridge and Harrah's both guarentee $5 dollar tables 24/7, but they are very difficult to find, and you usually have to wait in line for a while. I love Caesars and Bally's. I went inside of the Tropicana a couple of times, but never gambled there. Don't think that Borgata was built yet. Glad you had fun. Next time I find myself on the East Coast, I will definitely take you up on the offer.
