Just curious if there are any 6 deck $25-$50 tables in AC. Will be Staying Sunday-Friday.

Thanks!

I can't imagine many situations in the United States where you won't be able to find an immediate seat at a blackjack game if you are willing to play $50 a hand at a 6 deck game. Maybe at the Wynn at 10pm on New Years eve?

Borgata is probably the best place if you don't count.

In AC, almost all shoe games are 8 deck H17. 6 deck S17 is usually reserved for the high limit rooms only.

I would check out the Showboat, Harrah's, or the Tropicana on weekday mornings. Peeking in from the main floor, I've seen $50 minimum blackjack games in their high limit areas at off times.

On a semi-related note, Harrah's still deals a $25 minimum Macau-style baccarat game, right by the main cashier. Most other AC casinos only offer Macau-style at $50 and $100 minimums.

You'll never find good rules or pen at showboat.

Thanks for the info. Like I said, I've never played in the high limit room there, I've only seen the electronic min/max signs from about 20' away on the main floor. Then again, at the Showboat, it's not a high limit "room" as much as it is just a raised pit of tables that stand out noticeably on the casino floor.

The "high limit" room at Showboat almost always has 2 or 3 $50 tables. 6 deck S17...but the pen is pretty bad. My experience though, the cocktail service is much better in that area than the main floor..so that's something. :)

So the question really is "Can I find S17 for $50"?

Sure, and I think the answer is "yes". As I mentioned above, I've seen $50 games in the high limit area at Showboat and Harrah's (I believe that was on a recent Sunday night), and Borgata may also have some as well in the pit on the main floor just outside the high limit area.

Also, as you may or may not be aware, MD, PA, and DE mandate that all blackjack games be S17, 3:2. I think the only leeway the casino has is to vary the number of decks (and ban mid-shoe entry). Parx has a cool website feature where you can check what the table minimums are live, and see how many seats are open at each level.
