As a newbie to the forum I am looking for a little help. I usually play at Mohegan Sun in CT and have regularly turned profit with Basic Strategy. Can you please help me find a good game. I will be staying at the Golden Nugget 4/26/14-4/29/14. As far as good games here is what I have found. Please give me some wisdom and your own games you have found.
My Mohegan game is S17 / DAS / no RSA / surrender allowed. Roughly 0.33-0.34 HA the do however have a shallow cut card resulting in more frequent shuffling

1.) 8 deck at Monte Carlo on the Strip $10 min looks like a dream come true with 0.0 house advantage. Is this accurate and I have only played 6 deck is 8 deck worthwhile
Monte Carlo game is H17 / DAS / RSA / surrender allowed

2.) I was told 1-2 deck games are more prevalent downtown. I found a 1 deck at El Cortez that looks pretty good but can anyone please tell me what "Single-deck game with no shuffle card" Means and what it does for house advantage. How do they determine when to shuffle.
El Cortez game is H17 / no DAS / no RSA / no surrender. All unfavorable but house advantage is 0.19 because of "no shuffle card"---> please elaborate

3.)6 deck games at Bellagio and MGM Grand are better than what I am used with RSA allowed. Any insight
Both are S17 / DAS / RSA / surrender allowed

THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ALL YOU HELP

1) This is an error. There are no 0 advantage games in las vegas.
2) Downtown does have a lot more single and double deck available and the El Cortez has probably the best game in Vegas.
3) They do have that game, but it will depend on how much you are willing to spend. During slow periods you might be able to find a table of it at $25 at MGM. During busy periods the minimums will probably be $100.

If you are used to S17 games make sure you learn the rule changes for H17. There's only like 5 of them though so it's not a huge deal.

There has obviously been a reasonable amount of talk about it on this site about the El Cortez game. If you dig you can find it. The one thing that comes to mind is that they aren't afraid to kick people off the game for minor bet variations. So if that's your style or you casually count, this might not be the place for you to play.

The double deck game at MSS has low limits, professional dealers, and is within a short walk of Golden Nugget. Plus, if you care, it has the best craps game in town. Lastly, the MSS's brunch is quite possibly the best deal in town. I just spent a weekend at MSS and greatly enjoyed it, thus the recommendations.

I'd like to refer you to some threads so you can tell the OP what you think. Don't tell the mods I sent you.

I just read those posts. KB1 is officially awesome and should be permanently immune to suspensions. If posts were people, KB1 would beat some of them up just for being different.

In the mornings, you will find at least one or two of these tables at both the MGM Grand, Aria, and Bellagio for $25 minimums. Bellagio and Aria will go up to $100 minimum as the day goes on, but MGM might leave it at $25 all day depending on how busy it is.

I've actually played at those tables when it was so dead they lowered the limits to $10 at both MGM Grand and Bellagio. Never seen them go below $25 at Aria.
