Yeah, I do, but the game essentially revolves around who lands on the best color groups first and is able to start building monopolies immediately. Maybe there's a better strategy, but IMHO the best thing to do is buy whenever you're able (99% of the time). Not only that, but once you have a good lead, it's nearly impossible to lose it. You can 'coerce' the other players into making deals at that point, but it's always to your advantage.. basically you become a loan shark. I'm not saying I dislike the game, but there really isn't much skill involved. It would be better if there were some random way to lose a lot of cash (ie community chest/chance cards that really had an effect, right now the only one that really hurts the player is the property repairs, and that's usually just an annoyance).
I don't play with the auction rules, though (does anyone?). I'm sure that gives the game more depth, but I just find it too tedious and boring.
Speaking of Monopoly, what's up with this 'Kid's Monopoly' I keep seeing? I played Monopoly all the time when I was a kid, do they really need to make it any more simplistic for children?
