Honestly, if you already crushed the 1/2 poker table last time, I’d probably stick with poker for most of the session and maybe keep a small side bankroll for table games later in the night. With $150, poker at least gives you some level of control compared to pure house-edge games.
If you do jump onto casino tables, I’d personally lean blackjack or baccarat over roulette/craps just for bankroll longevity. EZ Baccarat can actually be pretty chill if you avoid chasing side bets. I was reading through some table game breakdowns here
https://www.pokerlistings.com/casino-games/table-games recently and it’s a good reminder how much variance changes depending on the game and bet selection.
Main thing is probably deciding whether you want the best chance to grind for hours or take a shot at a bigger quick win. Those usually lead to very different choices.
Yeah, honestly poker makes the most sense here, especially since he already proved he can profit at those stakes. With only $150, table games can burn through the bankroll surprisingly fast if variance turns against you early.
And I agree with your second point too- sometimes the smartest move is just waiting until you’ve got a bigger budget so you can actually enjoy the session instead of feeling pressured by every hand or spin.
