YES i hear sterling is good for "gambling" my wife booked a 3 night 4 day cruise, I know there is some blackjack but don't know about poker and craps. With no 'land' based casino's here (tampa) I've got a good bankroll built up for the dice table.

Sounds great as I have thurs, fri, and sat. nights off. I have many years and hours logged at crap tables all over the country, would be nice to add to my chip collection, currently at over 20 racks 2000 chips.

You will find some of the worst gamblers you will ever see on a cruise ship. It will drive you nuts.....Go to the Atlantis. That place is awesome. Check out the little aquirum while you are there.

Sucks ass. Too many ignorant fools who don't know the basic strategy of blackjack.

Not enough tables. I prefer to play on the $25.00 or higher tables, but when I went, only $10.00 tables were offered, which led to my demise.

The games are terrible regarding house advantage. Expect craps to be single odds.

I'll second that. The odds are horrendous.

been on a ton of these 4 day cruises. You may stop in Key west first day (Friday) and then in Nassau for Saturday all day. I have yet to win money on a cruise ship but if you go in with the thought that what you bring in cash you will lose all will be fine. I love playing on the boats but you will more than likely lose in the long run because you will be in there so much.

Atlantis is very cool and very expensive. You will be there during the day so the table limits are not so bad. The food is outrageously expensive and not worth it BUT you must just walk the grounds and even consider buying a pass to swim and enjoy the pool. It is awesome and the slide is killer.

If you want to shake it up I can recommend a great restaurant to go Saturday night and you must visit Senior Frogs right at the dock. Let me know.good times. Have fun..:dancefool

GamBling on cruises sucks..$5 table mins. Few tables and drinks are pricey.captive audience.
