· If you’re like us, you’re tired of throwing dice in back alleys and in dank basements around town. $4,449 and a casino quality craps table can turn even the lamest laundry room into a den of inequity in mere minutes. [SuperDuperGames]

· We’re not going to vouch for validity, but if you’re a WSOP buff and have more than a couple bucks to spend, how about bidding on the supposed actual final table from this year’s WSOP? [ebay]

· Those 11.5g poker chips you got off of ebay? Composite resin with an insert, not the real thing. If you’re interested in getting some real clay chips, it’s going to set you back. $670 sound like a deal? [No Limit Poker Store]

· Grandma coming for a visit? Keep her busy for hours with your very own slot machine, only $3,000 from Christopher’s Games of Quality & Distinction. Just don’t steal any of Nana’s pulls, old ladies get awfully protective of their machines. [Christopher’s Games…]

Roulette: 8/5 Strategy Requires Minimal Thought, Patience

READ MORE: 8/5 Betting, Roulette

Those of you googly-eyed enough to play roulette on a regular basis probably know this already, but for amateurs who go to the casinos and are used to using systems like betting on your grandmother’s birthday or the date you lost your virginity, may wanna try the 8/5 betting style. Casino Buzz breaks it down this way:
The 8/5 system is a simple little betting method used exclusively in roulette and mostly in Monaco by tourist ladies with purple hair. You bet on the same eight numbers consecutively for five times. However, if your number hits on the first spin, you drop that eight number group and pick another set of numbers. For instance, if you’re betting $1 on each number, then your total amount wagered is $8. If one of your numbers hits, you win $35, with a net gain of $27.

See? Easy-peasy. Before you know it, you’ll be $27 richer and splayed out on a buffet table made of cheese.

By switching numbers with each spin of the roulette, you reduce your odds of winning at online casino roulette.

So, that’s our plan tonight is to sit a home, pick our lucky numbers and just wait the roulette machine out. Eventually, 37, 3, and 39 will have to hit, right? Talk to you guys in a couple weeks, we have to go put on our bathrobe and play online roulette.
