I'm looking to play some click-clack with friends this weekend, but I can't find any information on what casinos have Craps.

Seven Luck at Seoul station didn't have when I went there last weekend, and I've heard that Walker Hill has it, but other information says that they don't. Has anyone ever seen it in Seoul?

There aren't any in Walker Hill nor in the Coex 7-Luck. They have everything else, though.

Damn... Roulette is fun but the odds aren't very good, though I like the 2,500 won minimums. At Walker Hill the minimum for Roulette is 10,000 won per chip, which is just crazy. Not even the best Vegas casinos have $10 minimum roulette outside of the high roller areas.

I guess Walker Hill must have ditched their craps table before I got here, which is a shame. It's definitely the most fun crowd game at a casino... but then again, from what I've seen, most casino gamblers here are Chinese-Korean ajosshis with a chain smoking problem and not a drop of joy in their hearts who only want to play Baccarat or Blackjack, so I could see why it failed. I guess I'll have to start my own street dice games to get my fix.

Yo Gorf, there's been no dice in Korea as long as I've been here.

Believe it or not, Craps isn't that popular out of the US. The Casinos don't like to run the game (or promote it much), as it is the least profitable of all the table games: 4 crew members, relatively slow hands? (rolls?), and unless you choose the candy bets, some of the best odds in the house. Even in Macau, most Casinos didn't have much craps, (usually only 1 or 2 tables...per place compared to hundreds of the other games).

As a non-American, this is one of my pet peeves, I love dice and it's so hard to get a game

Asians aren't into craps? An Asian was one of the four finalists at the World Series of Dice.

You can always console yourself by watching ESPN's coverage of the World Series of Dice.
