I prefer blackjack, where you can expect to lose 0.5% if you play the "basic strategy" correctly. (For $25 a hand, 100 hands per hour, this amounts to losing $12.50 per hour, assuming that you have a large enough reservoir of cash.)

If you can count cards selectively (i.e., correctly and without getting caught) or you find a single-deck game, you can break even.

I've always wanted to go to a casino, I hear craps is the way to go to get a bit of cash quickly, or i guess lose it quickly.. Or maybe it's just my glamorization of the 'SWINGERS' lifestyle.. But also, I really don't know the ins and outs of poker.. I think I learned more about poker from Oceans Eleven than in my twelve years of casually playing the game.
