Not on main floor $25 tables. CBJN shows s17 for $50 mins but that must be in the HL room at really slow times with lots of pit and one or two players, was $100 mins during busy times from what I saw. But dealt face-up

how many threads have you started asking for conditions at various casinos? quit being a cheap bastard and buy a copy of CBJN. If you can't fork out $15, you shouldn't be playing BJ. or at least contribute something worthwhile on here.

and why do always care if it's face up or face down? that's the last thing I care about if I'm playing. there are tons more details that are worth much more than face up vs face down.

face up or down really shouldn't be a concern to you if you don't count. I just love face up games myself. Not sure why you would dislike them unless you are a poker player and it just makes things feel weird for you maybe.

so you're just a degenerate gambler? why does it matter where you play then since you're just gonna lose your money anywhere you go? And it's not like face up or face down cards will help you lose less. btw, thanks for the threatening, childish PM. it was very colorful!

Face down is better if you are a BS player trying to hustle comps. It's much easier to slow the game down. The house edge on S17 DA2, DAS DD is something like .19% so it's not a bad comp hustle if you at least know BS.

I doubt hustling comps would be worthwhile at a stingy sweat shop like Mirage. they probably pull your comps back if they notice you are a BS player. I've seen them 86 ploppies before. of all people, ploppies!?

I also doubt the OP has a clue about how to hustle comps.

Mirage DD

Mirage usually has 2 DD tables on their main floor. One is H17 and one is S17. Both games are dealt face up. The S17 table is directly across from the high limit room but on the main floor, the other table is further down the same row, but closer to the low limit pit, party pit and poker room (right across from the Beatles show entrance).

Both tables have limits as low as $25 depending on time, day, etc.

Beyond S17/H17, the rest of the rules are: no surrender, doa, das, nrsa.

This has been confirmed at the WizardOfOdds Blackjack Survey in the July 19 update. You can still get green chip S17 at the Mirage.

And that makes me very, very, very happy.

is their really only 2 DD on the Main floor? they must be ALWAYS packed though. What about High Limit?
There really are only two DD tables on the main floor that are regularly open. I believe there is another table that looks like its set up for DD, but only is open at peak times.

The DD tables are packed during busy times of the day, and are often empty during slow times. If the tables are packed, its unlikely that they are still $25 a hand. I've seen there main floor DD routinely be $50 during busy times and occasionally as high as $300.

The high limit room offers the same basic games as the main floor, S17 DD, but never has limits lower than $100, and if its busy the limits will definitely be at least $300.
