I just returned from Borgata today. The $5 table is by the Metropolitan bistro, which is as far from the poker as you can get. That's why I was confused, because the last several times, it has been there as well. Before that it was close to the main cashier's cages. I wonder if they had it temporarily near the poker room when you were there. And it is 8 deck, as you say, as well as the other blackjack games near it, I think all $15 games. There are dozens of 6 deck games, in three locations--beginning near the shopping mall where Starbucks is, near the cashier's cages in the middle of the casino, and between the poker room and the Bread and Butter cafe on the opposite side of the building from the hotel elevators.
