    Hey,

    So for a while Wynn and Encore both had a craps table by their pools. It was a lot of fun throwing some dice out by the pool and enjoying the nice weather. I'm sure some of the crews enjoyed it too.

    Last summer during a few of my trips I asked about the tables and was told they weren't going to be open during the summer. The crews I talked to, some of whom worked those tables said they were told the takes were poor & dealing with the hazards of weather (wind) was frustrating...

    That said, it seemed like quite a few people were bummed to see the tables go last summer.

    Does anyone know if they're back this summer by chance?

    If not, any other casinos with poolside craps?

    Thanks!

    I know some places off swim up BJ tables. At least they used to at The Flamingo. I used to do this from time to time and it was a blast.:peace:

    I like the pool and I like the casino, but putting them both together just doesn't make any sense to me.

    Well the pool area is usually a pretty lively and fun area to play in but i guess its not for everyone. Also sometimes it can be nice to get a little break from the pool sun, so why not go and gambol and enjoy the free drinks.

    Just to piggy back off this, are drinks free at poolside gaming locations like at the Flamingo?

    Umm I get to gamble AND eyeball hotties in bikini's? What's not to get? Either you take your gambling way to seriously (lol, yes I know, you actually do) or your sense-o-meter is broken! :poke:

    We were at the Flamingo last September and they had Poolside Tables. Yes a Craps table included, it was a shorty 8' table. 10.00 min. distance screwed me all up.....

    Just got back from Wynncore. Still no craps. For what gambling they had out there, hardly anyone was playing the BJ tables.
