A 2 deck game at a local casino has had the plug pulled. It will be sorely missed.
According to a dealer what they're supposed to say is it was due to lack of play when asked about it! :laugh:

Whether they got greedy or local players got greedy and overfished it, shame on them either way. A lot of the customers ranged from irritated to downright pissed. Not that they won't still be playing there anyway.

This happened at a casino near me, last year. The DD game lasted from the spring through the fall. When they first offered it, my friend who works there told me that I should play the game because it had been getting "b**ch-slapped" lol. Obviously it got slapped a little too hard and the game is gone now. Actually this casino has ALOT of 6:5 tables now too, where before they didn't have any.

6/5 in new venues offers great HC opps. Pray for 6/5. zg
I think the HC opportunities would be there even if it were 3:2. Do you think the casino realizes there are flashing dealers and go , it is okay the table is 6:5?

A +10% edge in exchange for a -1.4% disadvantage? I think so.

I think if they knew they had a flashing dealer they would train them not to flash regardless of the rules. I don't see why you would think there would be a correlation between rules and flashing dealers.

My bad tthree, misinterpreted your post.

I do agree with zg and wookets though, some games they watch like a hawk, some games they don't.

They are weaker ONLY because they are new at it. zg

How is 6/5 related to HC? Should I pray for 1/1 so that the dealer would show me the hole card?
New 1D games in LV and other venues were weak and provided a large increase in HC opps, at least in the beginning, because they were new at it. zg
