The Casino - Bet at Your Own Peril

This probably doesn’t deserve a stand alone blog post but I am not a “big” gambler but I love to gamble 😊. I found the Getaway casino to have lots of fun slot options that I thoroughly enjoyed. However, the black jack tables on cruise ships are automated 6 deck shuffle and playing at those tables was not fun. Dealers weren’t engaged, the other players didn’t seem to be having fun or wanting to connect. I always love tables in Atlantic City or Las Vegas because it becomes about a collective experience and learning about the game. Not so on cruise ships from my experience. I did have an experience in the high rollers room - let’s just say I had NO BUSINESS BEING THERE! My au pair has a ton of experience in high roller Las Vegas type situations and after a few prosecco’s I was deluded into thinking I could do well. Ummmmmm — DON’T DO IT. I will be sticking to the slots for all upcoming cruises!
