So I'm playing Mississippi Stud at the Golden Nugget and noticed that it shows a max aggregate of $25,000. There's nothing wrong with that when the table minimum is set at $5, but when they raise it to a $10 minimum that means my 500 to 1 payout on a royal flush gets capped at $25,000 when the math shows my payout with correct strategy play would be $40,000.

Is it legal for them to short pay me like that? And if so why are they allowed to do this?
OFFICIALLY and justifiably reclaimed my title as SuperHotBlonde!

25k max aggregate is common. It’s the modern way of casinos legally cheating. Also allows smaller casinos to be able to have these high volatility type games for patrons or whatever. Some places it’s like 10k..Missouri I believe max agg against gaming regs but I don’t know of anywhere else like that.

One of our members got lucky because he sat at a table without such a sign. After signing up here, he got the courage, acted fast and gaming sided with him, the max aggregate didn't apply to him. Whether it be slots, or table games, don't think such caps should be legal unless the house would have no long term edge without them. Guess it's legal for them to take money on bets then not pay fully because of signs most people don't understand, fair or not.
