Question by JudasHero: What celebrities play poker?
The ones I know of are:
Ben Affleck (who, to my surprise, actually won the California State Poker Championship)
Shannon Elizabeth
Jennifer Tilly
James Woods
Hank Azaria
the lead singer of Godsmack (forgot his name)
the guy who directed Casino Royale (which explains why Bond played Texas Hold Em, not Baccarat)
Tobey MacGuire

Any others?
Matt Damon has played in a professional tournament, but was sponsored, so that doesn’t count. Plus he got his butt kicked by Doyle Brunson.
If you count Matt Damon, then you’d have to count Edward Norton too.
Does Fred Savage play regularly? I remember seeing him in that silly Celebrity Poker show where he flopped a nut full house. Didn’t know he was a regular player though.
Don Cheadle’s a regular player? I remember he hosted that event at the World Series, plus he took out Phil Ivey heads up, which I thought was pretty impressive.

Matt Damon of course,

Brad Garrett from Everybody Loves Raymond
Lenox Lewis.

Actually for Casino Royale, they played hold’em to identify with the times, not just because the director plays it.

Question by pillsbury09mn: Should I play Mini Baccarat, or Pai Gow Poker?? ?
I am tired of Blackjack in the California casinos…
I don’t want to go to the poker room, and slots suck…

What game would you learn/play, and more importantly… WHY?!

Thanks!
A

Answer by LegFuJohnson
I like Pai Gow.

The game goes a lot slower than blackjack, and you push quite often, so no money changes hands. Some people don’t like that.

I never saw the appeal of mini-bacarrat. You bet on player or dealer, but you have no control over anything, you just watch.

Paigow you set your own hand, and as I said, you can play a lot without losing a lot, thanks to all the pushes. If you really crave the action, try craps.

Question by Jenny T: Is there any online casino (NOT POKER) I like roulette..that a US Player can use an epassporte account?
Loaded some money into the account because am now finding as a US player I cant use it so may have to move it out unless I can find a casino that uses it and allows US players to use it.

Best answer:

Answer by katie c
I found out that the casinos are no longer accepting epassporte for payments – i don’t know why – it seems only poker sites accept epassporte – so you could try setting up an ECO Card account – http://www.onlinegamblingcasinodirectory.com

Question by : Can online casino games such as roulette and blackjack or even poker be trusted?
Im particularly interested to know about roulette because i enjoy it the most!In my local casino i know its basically 50 50 when the ball spins but id like to think its like that online too?Surely its illegal for the people who run these sites to tamper with the games and essentially just rob the people who play them because that would be just daylight robbery!Can they be trusted or can they just rob people and get away with it?

Best answer:

Answer by Danny N
it’s completely trustworthy.. its a multi-billion dollar industry that is regulated with random number generators. What you have to understand about games like Roullette is that the house is always narrowly favoured, its not quite 50/50. Roullete pays 36/1.. this discounts the zero. The zero is the house edge.
