I'm robbing these casinos blind...

... with 10 luck. I'm at the Ultra Luxe and I finally lost after a 20 win streak at Black Jack. No matter what I do I always end up getting 20 or 21 and getting chips. I also got 11,000 chips from The Tops and 16,000 from Gomorrah. I won the former in around 15 slot tries and the latter in around 9. 10 luck makes it way too easy, not that I mind free money, though.

Try slots for the highest payout right when they are getting ready to throw you out. I got larger payouts faster wiith lower luck levels.

I once hit 16 000 in Atomic Wrangler at slots first try at LCK 7. I almost felt guilty.

But then again, they got Fisto from me later on...

Yeah with 10 luck if you play slots and bet at max you barely lose. Cherries that are the most common double your bet, and the rare but occasional orange will multiply your bet by 160 which if you bet at max is 32000 chips which is also an instant ban.

I won with Lemons (8,000) at The Tops and with Graqes (12,000) at Gomorrah.

The best odds seem to be at Blackjack. Even without "you feel lucky" I hit 20s way too often compared to the real thing. They should look into the code of the thing.

If you have no luck, with blackjack; you should still be able to win more than you lose since the tables are set up to be friendly. The code is not broken, dealer has to hit depending on the table you are playing at. Trust me , I wish it was like that in the real Vegas.

Meh. After I pay for implants, CA, AMR and Brush, I'd like to play "real" blackjack time to time just for the fun of it. Are there normal tables anywhere in FNV?

I wish you could play after breaking the bank. I spent hours playing poker in Red Dead Redemption.

I can though I use a mod I got on the Nexus that allows me to set the casinos to unban me after a certain amount of time (which can be altered by the player).

would you use an 'unban' perk if it popped up around level 16-18?
