If you were going to go out for just one Casino night during your year here, which would you choose and how would you play it? |

It definitely wouldn't be the coex casino. None of the games there interest me (actually, I'm only interested in poker, so I guess it'd have to be walker hill). And the last time I went to the hilton near seoul station they were remodeling, it was cramped and dirty and devoid of useful games. |

I had a look on the walkerill website. They only seemed to have 3-card stud. Anyone know if they have Texas Hold'em or Omaha tables? |

Starting in May Walker will offer PLO and Limit Holdem on Monday and Tuesday nights. They always have a 1/2 No Limit Hold 'Em game going. I am a reg there so I'd be happy to answer questions.
The COEX casino is definitely the nicest casino in Korea. It's about as nice as some of the casinos I saw in Macau though wayyyyyyy smaller. It has the best rules for Blackjack (6 decks, Walker uses 8 ) and it's 6 seats. The Millineum 7 Luck has 7 seats for Blackjack which I don't like as much and it's way more crowded.
waynehead: If you're only interested in poker then yeah you should stick to casinos with poker rooms...
Illysook: Kinda depends. You can get wayyyyy drunk at Walker and they never cut people off from booze. They also have $5 min bet blackjack and $2.50 min bet roulette (min at 7 luck is $10 for BJ and I'm pretty sure $5 for roulette) so your night can go a lot longer if you want.
Just print out a blackjack basic strategy card and have fun. Or play whatever you want...except baccarat that game is as boring as hell. |

If you start to win at blackjack, you'd do well to pick up your earnings and step away from the table. Overstated I know, but something that can't be stated enough. |

What if you win like, the first hand?
It's entertainment people can do whatever they want with their money. House edge in BJ is extremely small (like about half a percent) so I don't know why you single that one game out. It's probably the best game to play if you just want to get drunk and have a fun time.
Poker definitely has worse odds than Blackjack if you aren't good.
The best way to limit your losses is to only bring a certain amount of money with you and leave the ATM card at home. And of course, don't bring more than you can afford to lose. |

So long as you follow the advice above and don't bring more than you can afford to lose, yeah go ahead and have fun. |
