What do you guys think? I think Crown has the best facilities.. but which Casino offers the greatest odds to players? What stories do you have of your trips to the casino?

Have been to Canberra, Sydney, Gold Coast and Melbourne. Melbourne is easily the best but with the major major changes happening to Sydney Casino over the next few years it should bridge the gap.

yea ive been to syd/melb/GC/treasury and Canberra.
Obviously canberra is terrible GC fine if ur getting on it which everyone is. Treasury is the best building and my favourite.
Melbourne is massive and sydney kicks ass now with that MASSIVE sports screen and theater. Treasury has alot of cool memories for me and is a maze but i think with the refurbishment Star City is the best now.

went to melbourne on an overnight trip, got to crown at 11am, drank and bet on horse races until 6, then went to etihad to watch victory beat adelaide 3-1, straight back to crown and drank until about 3 then tried to get into the strippers but got denied entry coz i was hammered, then woke up at 6.30am on a park bench in collins street with no idea how i got there (lucky the hotel i was staying in was just around the corner)

cant say im a fan of crown, dont particularly like the design of it, its straight and long and narrow and in each particualr area seems small if you get me
star city on the other hand is like one massiveeeeeeee room, i prefer that feel to a casino
on the other hand, seem to do alot better at blackjack at crown...pretty sure the shuffler at star city is constantly shuffling the cards around whereas at crown they shuffle all the decks and then thats is until they are all dealt out....
dont say halo

GC, BRIS, SC i've got to give it to star city, without being there a 4 number of years... brisbane just feels to old and the lay out is terrible, great for a poker game in the early hours however! Gold Coast is good on the right night, there is always fine women all over the shop!
hanging out to get down to mlb and check out crown...

Melbourne has so many more games and tables. Gotta love Casino War:

You get 1 card dealer gets 1 card, highest card wins Smile

Casino Wars.. you can win/lose so much money so fast.
If you draw with the dealer you can double your bet and get another card, or just take half your money back. Was at a table where it came like this:

Me: Q
Player 2: J
Dealer: J

Player 2: K
Dealer: K

Player 2: 3 (he was swearing a lot at this stage, his bet was upto 200)
Dealer: 2.

Winners!

funny you should say that, ive won more money playing cards in my mates garage than i have at a casino. must be the dizzying lights or the booze. only been to star city and that was a few years ago. been meaning to go there soon so the new sports bar is a perfect excuse. just hope they have new carpet the old one was a bit dodgy.

I've only been to Crown, but it is a pretty amazing complex.

Not a big gambler though like a couple of my mates who love their Poker.
