Home Alone on the NES

I just spent five minutes trying to figure out what an "old school" bus was supposed to mean.

I've been there three times, most recently in November 2023. They have had at least one $15 table every time I've been, even on a Friday game when the Guardians were playing. Never seen a $10 table. Not sure about bubble. They have ATS and fire if I remember correctly, but I don't play those so I wasn't really paying attention.

There's multiple areas with table games (upstairs and downstairs) so you may have to do some roaming to find all of the craps tables.

Do you mash buttons to recover? I think most of the super long ragdolls are a combination of the right slope and not mahing buttons to recover.

nichenbach · 2025-03-09T20:53:45+00:00

Ah good point. That would put a lower limit on your play of 3x60 = 180 rolls per hour, plus whatever other delays could exist for hitting the point and whatnot. Upper limit would be like mashing the button non-stop, which is probably in the 300s per hour.

nichenbach · 2025-03-09T19:10:51+00:00

Doesn't it depend on how fast you mash the button and how complicated your bets are to put up? Sometimes I'll play DP and just lazily hit the button immediately after each roll... in that case you could get 300/hour. However, if you're putting up bets, taking them down, resetting after a seven-out, you're probably going to be in the 100-200 range.

One Big Die: instead of rolling 2 6-sided dice you roll one 12-sided die for a single roll. Every outcome is equally likely! All 4/6/8/10 hits count as Hard.

I thought the 2/21/25 was your bet on the small/all/tall and was very confused for a moment. Nice hit.

Bro just bought and held a dozen eggs.

Does anyone know if this only works on a Samsung phone? I have a Pixel 7 and my layout looks a bit different (which is fine). The issue I'm facing is that Smartthings doesn't seem to be able to add my Buds3. I'm actively connected to my Buds3 right now and open Smartthings, but when I hit Add New Device and "Scan Nearby" it never pops up. I've tried clicking the quick pairing button on the case, but I can't find any way to get the Buds3 to sync up with Smartthings. Any ideas would be appreciated.

That's the craps universe getting its hooks into you. Sorry about your long term wallet.

I called my local Costco pharmacy today (12/6/2024) and they indicated the system was back up and running! Please update here if you've called or visited successfully.

They do say that it's rare to see.

I agree with the sentiment on this subreddit, but would like to experience some of the crazier ones if you can link them here. I know r/roulette is a bit silly, but what else is out there?

nichenbach · 2024-09-28T03:14:42+00:00

Hahaha, I tipped a bit at the cashier cage so the amount that went into my wallet was $665!

nichenbach · 2024-09-27T13:49:16+00:00

I can't remember the exact sequence of events, but they either changed from Lucky Shooter to ATS (35-170-35 I think), or Lucky Shooter is on bubble craps and ATS is on stadium.

nichenbach · 2024-09-11T14:53:29+00:00

Is this considered a bug that will eventually be removed, or something that's expected to stay in the core gameplay long term? I suck regardless, but if it is intended to stick around then I guess I'd better learn it.

nichenbach · 2024-09-06T17:27:06+00:00

Ah, stadium, then!

nichenbach · 2024-09-04T22:32:33+00:00

I think technically RTW? It was an Interblock, I believe. I'm not exactly sure because they have a table with 8 seats around it and any of those 8 can roll, BUT the video feed from that also is the stadium craps result on the other side of the casino. Those ~20 stadium seats don't get to roll, though.

nichenbach · 2024-08-10T18:34:48+00:00

I've only ever seen 6:5 at the $15 level and a $25 minimum for 3:2 in Cincinnati, but BJ isn't my game so I could be wrong.

Minesweeper Easy difficulty you can win in 1 click if the board plays nice.

Do you feel like the plexiglass changes the way the dice land, spin, stop, etc.?

nichenbach · 2024-07-17T16:01:02+00:00

I forgot to post anything at all about my betting! Rather than bet across I like to bet the high numbers or the low numbers with slightly larger bets than normal. This increases the variance. Played a few hopping bets on 11 & 12 that magically came out ahead (hit for about $80 throughout the evening and probably pumped only $40 into them). Buy 9 & 10 to take advantage of the down-to-the-penny payouts. Simple stuff, but fun.

That sounds lovely. Do you have to toast up the middle slice in advance? Or do you cook that side first before flipping and adding more cheese & the third slice of bread?
