Yes, I'm totally OK with it.

We need moderators for new sections, including Blackjack (you anand!!) and I've thought of stock market and other gambling forms.

As long as there are moderators, I'm ok with adding sections for the cards & other gambling part of the site

Regards,
Victor

While you are in such a generous mood, Victor, can I have a craps section, please?

Thanks.

Hello Lohnro.

Believe it or not, I was thinking in opening a section like this:




Dice Games

For discussing Craps, Sic bo and other gambing forms with dices.




Are you OK with being the host of such a "dice games" section? I mean, OK to discuss more than craps?

I'm at the board administration panel waiting for your answer :)

Regards.

I suppose anything with dice would be ok.  But I haven't played Monopoly in years...lol!  And I am still searching for my first Sic Bo table.

Actually after the BJ and Craps section there should be one more that would be a catch-all.  Big Six wheel, Sic-Bo, Casino War and the offbeat and esoteric card games that come and go.

I'll mod both if you want.

Okay, then we better specify: "Casino Dice Games".

We want noone to come around asking for the rules of Yahtzee (nolinks://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahtzee)!

That would be great! I'll post here as soon as the "Catch-all" section is created.

This thread inspired Lohnro's request for a new section: Horse Racing!

Very productive day :)

Regards and thanks to you both.

Your friend,

Oooooh, Sic-Bo.   A ridiculously simple game that is really addicting to play.   Saw it a few times in the Macau casinos and just had to try it.  Almost blew my entire roulette stake chasing the stupid numbers!!
  I vote for a "dice games" section too.

Hey, fly boy, how's it going???

Was wondering if you were still walking upright.

Good to see you are alive.

Got a pic or a layout of a Macau roulette wheel you cans send my way by any chance?

Talesman,

  Well, of course I don't have any photos of the place what with the Chinese dealers, who look a LOT like Chinese soldiers but here's a link to what looks a whole lot like the machines I was playing on.   I really did enjoy playing with it.   You make your bets with plenty of time and the wheel and ball are both "real".   Only thing missing is the movement of cheques and a grumpy dealer!

A few days ago I had a HD failure. 

I won't go into details but it was rather weird and I ended up formatting all my drives and while my backup program reported 100% success, a lot that was "saved" became a jumble of 1's and 0's when it came time to restore.

In that I lost the wheel layout for the Macau wheel.  I have no idea where I got the original after all these years and thought maybe you had a roulette card with one depicted on it or even a clear snapshot from a cell phone camera or something.

No big deal.  I'll send a bot out into the neither regions one day to scour around until it finds a good one.  It isn't high on my list of priorities right now.

Take care.
