I was wondering what ship you were on? We just got off the Celebrity Reflection and they had a similar casino although a little smaller. I did notice that at the 2/5 table they were taking a 10% rake with no limit. Of course the BJ tables were all 6/5 with $10 minimums and the $10 craps table had single odds unless you were betting over $50 then it was double. I could not believe the players there. At the craps table there were three or four of them that would buy in every night for $1500-$3000 each. One guy lost his $2500 so got another $1500. Of course when they won the won big. I noticed another thing on the boat. Just so you did not leave your players card/room key in a machine they had "touchless" readers for all of the slot machines. The funny part is you could tap your card on any machine and if someone else sat down and did not use their card you got the credit. I tripled my video poker rating by doing that once or twice. Between a little VP and a lot of craps and BJ I ended up $222 ahead for the trip. Plus all of the free drinks. Cindys brother in law played double, double bonus like a mad man and ended up with another free cruise.
