Free room at Ballys w/free room service. My wife and I live in MD, so we're driving.

That leaves every dollar we bring for gambling. What is an appropriate amount of cash to bring if we're only staying for one night?....$350 each?
 
I hate AC. Never win any money there. The only time I ever won there ($50 on the blackjack tables), I ended up getting a speeding ticket on the way home that more than negated that. But yeah, depends on what game you're playing. $40 can last you a whole night on the slots. And $500 could last you 30 mins on the craps tables.

yea, it's a slum

I went there occassionally as a child and it's changed so much. The boardwalk was welcoming, and there were all of these neat souvenier shops. Now, most of them have closed. Most of the arcades have closed.

 
Depends what you play. I'm stayin over friday night. Prob gonna bring 500 or so. But you can get by with 100 or 10 thousand. There is no 'appropriate' amount.

If you put 350 dollars on one blackjack hand and lose, I'm sure you would no longer consider that the right amount to bring.
 
there are some pretty good clubs in AC also. Casbah in Trump, MurMur and Mixx in Borgata, Providence in Tropicana...so check out some clubs too. 350 should be enough per person for one night. but then again, im not a big gambler.

depends on what you like to play.

slots / video poker? sure. that should be enough for a few hours of action, if youre betting 2.00 to 2.50 max. taking time to walk around, slow play and get some drinks.

350 at the craps table. hope you get lucky, you'll probably need more than that.

however, again, my favorite game for killing time, maybe winning a little bit and mitigating losses is pai-gow poker.

DON'T play mini-pai-gow though. mini-pai-gow sucks.

it's not bad if you don't leave the casinos, though.

I'm pretty much AC'd out myself, though. my friend gets a ton of comp'd rooms at the Borgata (well, his grandfather does, but since he and his grandfather have the same name and the grandfather only goes down on day trips with seniors, he gives all the comps to my friend)... I've been down like 6 since since January and lost money every time.
 
Don't play roulette at the Tropicana, it's fcking rigged. Hell, all of AC is rigged, I just play nickel slots now. I left +$5 last time and had fun. 🙂
 
AC is a dump but it sure feels good leaving that place with a handsome profit making out like a bandit
I am going there again next weekend
