I'm almost exclusively a blackjack player. Is there any benefit to going to Atlantic City over Vegas? Isn't everything 8 deck over there anyway? And with all the financial trouble going on over there, I am wondering whether it is worth checking out. To go to either place I need to get on a plane.

Unless you have established hosts and deals over in AC and coupling it with seeing friends and family, Vegas all the way.

The high limit rooms offer six deck S17 games. There is no surrender in town with the exception of the Golden Nugget high limit room where it can be negotiated. There may be restrictions. I visit a few times a year and may be there this weekend. If anyone wants a game checked out let me know. I seldom play blackjack there and would have to see advantage plays other than counting.

Benefits? Not at blackjack. Do you like Jersey girls? :-)

You will save $ on sunscreen - if you want to factor that advantage in.

Jersey Girls are easy, and the White House makes a mean hoagie. Other than that...Vegas Baby.

No reason to go to AC unless it is within driving distance.

Sad but true. Pretty soon it won't be worth it unless it's within bicycling distance.

I know of at least 2 casinos in LV that offer surrender. Or do you mean coupling S17 with LS?

Only two? There's lots of surrender in Vegas. I was answering the question about Atlantic City. Sorry if I wasn't clear. The old Trump Marina is now the Golden Nugget. There is no surrender in Atlantic City other than possibly that one pit that I mentioned.
