Be Honest, What do you budget per day for the casino?


riddle

Recommended Posts

Budget?? Depends on how many chips the House put in the Dealer's tray! :D

 

Seriously, I bring a few $K on each cruise and allot a little extra draw on my cruise card if needed. But basically on a 12 day cruise, about $500-$1K per day.

I have credit limit set up before I board. I also have my play tracked and obtain a win loss statement at the end of the year. Carnival has treated me well and I always have a lot of fun and meet interesting people. Happy cruising!

I only budget about $200 total for the entire cruise. I play mainly blackjack and craps and bet the minimums. I will play frequently and haven't ever run out of money before the end of the cruise. I usually walk away with close to my starting amount.

 

If I play slots, I seem to always lose so I stay away from them.

first time on the cruise and learning as I reading.. which is great!

You mention

slotplaycoupons dot com and buy them

This is only for NCL ships

since I have no idea what a NCL ship is I need to know is Magic a NCL ship?

also you mention that you get the coupons on board, does that applies to all the cruise ship or should ask does it apply to the Magic.

 

Does Magic have the slot machines? Love those. LOL

My daughter likes the blackjack tables.

 

Not sure what I'm going to budget I will play it by ear since this will be my first time...

NCL stands for Norwegian Cruise Line, so unfortuantely the Magic is a Carnival vessel. Carnival has very nice casinos, as does Noregian. Unfortunately Carnival does not participate inthe slot play coupon program....only NCL.

How much does it cost to play the slots?

Do they have spinning wheel and you bet whet value you think it stops on. Don't remember the name of it played it yrs ago in Vegas. Did good on it. And was fun

 

They haven't had the wheel on any ships I've been on

That wheel is called the money wheel. It's not in cruise ships. Slots range from penny slots to 10$ slots.

On NCL Epic there is even a $25 slot machine.
