casino trip-Seneca Allegany-Salamanca,New York

Won $290 playing a $10 table for 3 hours in my first try at playing at a casino. Used Basic Strategy, minimum bet for the most part. Best moment was a $30 bet, drew A-7 to dealers 6, doubled and drew a 3. Was up $440 at one point, but my goal was to win $300, when I started to feel drained, I cashed in. Made two mistakes, failed to double 8-3 vs. dealers 3 and didn't hit 10-2 to dealers 3. The player next to me parlayed $500 into $4000.
After playing against "HIT or Stand" in the difficult mode, found live action with 4 players to be relatively easy.

This game and the message board DO help. Practice makes perfect. I had a disappointing session two nights ago, but I had a lot of fun watching people that I was playing with.

Is the Seneca-Alleghany Casino a smaller one? Curious about the general games of play and limits.

[ratsteeth]

Yes it is smaller than the one at Niagra, it is a renovated Bingo Hall. There is more constuction ongoing. The Blackjack tables are $5-$500 max,$10-$500 max, and $25 to $500 max.
They have craps, roulette, slots and various Poker games. They also have a Poker room.
Speaking of Poker, I have been playing online for play money the last couple of days, Texas Holdem' and 7 card stud. Find it boring, a game of wits with your opponents. Blackjack is still my game of choice. Best Wishes.
