Its been a while since anyone asked this question, and as far as I can tell it was me, about a 2 years ago. Maybe no one else is curious about this? Any ideas on craps limits currently at Mirage, TI, Venetian? Can you find $10 tables on a Sunday night?

Friday and Saturday night at certain casinos are the only time you might not be able to find a $10 table.

In general, those casinos are:

* Wynn
* Aria
* Palazzo
* Venetian
* Cosmopolitan
* Bellagio

These same casinos during these times will temporarily go down to $10 until they get a single customer, even if it says $25 in many instances.

Approaching a $25 minimum table and hesitating without even asking will often solicit an offer to get grandfathered in at $10 if nobody else is at the table.

I hope this is helpful!

Until I got booted out of Bellagio I always saw $10 tables there on weekend nights. About six months ago I went back in just to see if someone would say something to me at a table... a $10 table... just made a line bet and threw wildly just as a test. No one said a word to me. The casino was busy and there were several $10 tables to choose from.

I think the recession (lingering) is keeping $10 tables everywhere. I don't frequent Wynn or LVS joints but if they don't have $10 tables I dont see the point is betting more than your comfort level.

You can find $10 at Mirage on Sunday nights but not with the lowest house edge, ex: no double deck with dealers standing on S17. Those have always been $25 and up from what I've seen, and even higher on more busy nights. T.I. had good table minimums but I haven't been following them since they broke from the MGM hold. Venetian I'm not too sure of since I only play where I feel a good vibe, and that place is not the place I feel the most comfortable. But I think, and I could be wrong, that I could have been playing $10 a hand the last time I was there when I was waiting to have lunch with the Wizard.

Just a side note, you can always call these casinos and ask to speak to a floor manager. It's Sunday night now and it would be a good time to call and ask them what the table MINIMUMS are, which I think is what you're actually looking for.

Good luck! :)

Double deck craps?

Sorry. Just picking on you, HB. Check the thread title and original question.

On a weekend, maybe. Try Flamingo, Quad, or Harrah's first though, if you really want to avoid the CR.

I've definitely experienced this at Caesars Palace. It was a $25 table going dead, they dropped it to $10 and by the time I looked back at the min sign, it was back to $25 again.

Wow, what did you do to get booted?? (haha...j/k) I barred myself from the Bellagio last summer. Can't stand the (rude) craps dealers on swing there.


That's so weird, I have had great experiences with the swing craps dealers at Bellagio.

I had a rude blackjack dealer at the Bellagio, Dorothy (if I'm spelling her name right). She gave me attitude amd made me feel unwelcomed at the table. I had considered saying something to the casino management about her but I didn't want to get her in trouble. I also had a rude baccarat dealer but that was at the Mirage. I don't remember her name but she was an elderly white woman. Maybe it's a woman thing, women tend to be more bitchier than men.

Thanks again for all the responses. What I actually found on Sunday afternoon at the mirage was $10 and $25 tables. Played some (and had good luck!) at the 10 table. After seeing Love and visiting with friends, I checked out the tables again (at about 2300)and 3 tables were half full but at $15. Watching the action it seemed a large fraction were grandfathered $10 players. I didn't play, I find $15 an awkward limit and didn't feel up to the late night trek to casino royale. My best guess is mirage was prepping to staff down for the night.
