The Cree has changed my friend. 6 decks with 1d pen, dealer now has hole card and surrender is allowed against ace because of this. you can surrender as soon as the dealer comes to you, which i find is great. the limits give all counters a huge bet spread, $5-$400 and $10-$800 is awesome. also, my buddy has been telling me that they hand shuffle at some tables on the weekends.
