In craps, why would you bet the pass line? It’s always been said, the larger the betting area, the more advantageous to the house. Wouldn't it be better to take that pass line money and spread it to the any crap, eleven, and seven? All of these pay odds. If a point is rolled instead, put your big bet on the odds. That pass line is only needed if you want to roll the dice. Am I wrong?

Players club tracking has become so sophisticated, I — and I assume many other readers of your fine Question of the Day — have found ourselves in casino crosshairs because of our advantage play. I play only JoB 9/6 and DW44. My favorite local casino has not only cut my weekly cash from $45 to $5, they have actually cut my percentage comp return, which I know only because I keep my own detailed records. Once you’ve been "marked" like this, is there any way to get back into their good graces?

What's it like to deal poker in a high-stakes poker cash game in a casino? 

I’ve always been fascinated that someone could make their living gambling, so I was wondering how changes over the past 25 years have affected the number of professional video poker players in Las Vegas.

If so, could anyone estimate how much of a % decrease there has been in that time frame?

In regards to your QoD of 3/6/2107 about the best card-counting systems, I personally use Speed Count as discussed in the book Beat Blackjack Now. I have found it to be an excellent method and easy to use and I’ve had good success with it. Your thoughts?

I'm retiring soon. Too healthy to sit. I would love to be a dealer, but part time. What are the odds of a senior getting a part-time job on the casino floor?

I am from New Mexico. I was in Las Vegas Nevada on the 4th of March. I forgot to cash a voucher and brought it home in the amount o $76.00. How can I redeem or cash it from NM without me being there?

What is the best strategy for playing video blackjack at the bars? Do you assume a single shuffled deck dealt with each hand? Or continuous hands dealt from a single 52-card deck, or is it random or set by the house? Are there better bars to play it at than others?

What is the average daily gambling bankroll for Las Vegas Casino patrons? I have always been curious, but never able to find an answer.

What happens if I'm playing on my husband’s card and I hit a jackpot over $1,200? Will I get paid?
