| mgreiche Member since: Mar 13, 2011 Threads: 13 Posts: 24 | Can anyone give me some info on the rules for the Bethlehem (PA) Sands blackjack tables? S17 or H17? Surrender option? 6 deck or 8 deck? CSM? Penetration? Double any two cards? DAS? RSA? etc... Thanks |

Some tables are dealt from a shoe, others are dealt from a shufflemaster. I don't remember the number of decks or how deep they have to go.

| paigower Member since: Jan 4, 2012 Threads: 0 Posts: 1 | I think it was 6 decks in the high-limit pit, 8 decks for sure outside. High-limit range was 100-5000, outside was 25-1000 and a pit with 50-3000. Paigow limits were fairly low, 25-1000 range, no banking permitted (yet) Cutcards were in about 1.5-2 decks in... All of these cards are dealt from a shoe - but come out of a shufflemaster... Ground through about 25 shoes in my first trip out there - very playable conditions. |
