Hi guys,
New Member here, just got back from a 4-night stay in Vegas. I played 100% Bubble craps, cataloging the games I played, and the odds. All but 1 casino had the ARUZE Shoot-to-win bubble craps.

I didn't go to all the casinos on the strip or downtown, but here are the casinos I did go to that didn't seem to have Craps games:
NONE AT: Stratosphere, SLS, Orleans, Wynn, Palace Station, Circus Circus, Casino Royale (they used to have one, but renovations have pushed the tables to the place where it was), Fremont, 4 Queens, The D, Golden Nugget, Golden Gate, Plaza, California (they were removing slots to close the place down for renovations), and Main Street Station. None of these casinos had a Craps machine.
Monte Carlo had TWO, one of each type, Inter block and ARUZE.
MGM Grand had 2 ARUZE machines, but they were expensive, and the $5min applied to the Field. All of the others above allowed you to bet $2 or $3 min on the Field, even if the pass line min was $5.
I mostly played Iron Cross, and some don't pass, don't come with odds. After 4 nights, and gambling on every machine listed above, I only ended up down $89. So I consider that a success.
I have been turned on to Bubble craps for the speed with which the play goes, the exact payments, and the ability to sit and receive the free drinks as the waitresses come around. They always seem to service these games more often than the live craps tables.

Yep. It's a great game. I play at El Cortez. $1 Don't Pass, with continuous Don't Come bets and 5x odds.
I play all night long and drink like a camel at a desert oasis. Good times.

That's good to know that the El Cortez has it too. I have been mulling over another trip in February for the World of Concrete show. Was thinking about Downtown. Got comped at the Downtown Grand (drunken shooter on Monday night must have rolled 4 points, 50 times total) I cleaned up with Iron Cross, helped offset my losses. I kept upping my places and buys by a unit each time I'd hit a number rather than the field.
So that is 3 bubbles in downtown. Not bad, considering the casinos there are pretty cramped and it is a lot to ask to free up space for a Craps machine. My guess is that they don't clear anywhere close to what a bank of slots would in the same location.
I was also thinking about the Strip/Tropicana intersection. Was disappointed with the MGM bubbles limits, but the Excalibur and NYNY had great minimums and service (Jack and coke, screwdrivers and Corona's for days!). The Tropicana's bubble is brand new, the 'glass' of the bubble barely has any scuffs, and the buttons are very sensitive to the shooter. (Sometimes you really have to bang that thing to make it pop)
Plus easy walk from the Excalibur to the Luxor and Mandalay and they also have bubbles, and to the Monte Carlo to try the Inter Block again. I have heard that Ceasars has an inter block, but I haven't been there in a while.

I always spend a good amount of time drinking at TAG Bar at the Linq and the machine is near and it always seems busy.
I think some that are afraid to play at a live table enjoy it. Also see many couples, which again may not play a live game.
If the machines were not making money, they wouldn't be there, so your report shows they are working.

Thanks for the detailed list!!!

Craps is paradise (Pair of dice). Lets hear it for the SpeedCount Mathletes :)

IIRC,
The Four Queen's had an Aruze Bubble Craps as you came in from the East Entrance off the FSE. I'm sure that was there on my November visit.
Also, there used to be an Aruze Bubble Craps that I played at The Plaza. That was maybe 2 years ago.
I also played the Aruze Bubble Craps at Red Rock over Thanksgiving.

Do you earn MLife points on these at the MGM properties?
