L'Auberge du Lac is now H17 on all tables on the main floor outside of High Limit.

While they were quietly changing all the felts during Grave, they should have remembered they'll now have to take down all their "Most Liberal Rules" Blackjack billboards on I-10.

Hopefully the Plops will take their business to S17 Coushatta instead--but something tells me the whole USA will be H17 before long.

Coushatta would be wise to clone the same billboard with their logo on it instead.

In deteriorating economies, it makes more sense to me that casinos would make the games more attractive to keep revenues flowing in. Who's running the show?

not going to make them much more money

The big dollar players responsible for generating most of their table game revenues will still play the s17 games. The lower dollar players mostly play very poorly (>1% disadvantage already) so adding another 0.2% on top of that won't add as much to their profits as they might think. It will make the games on the main floor much harder for counters to beat so the eye can more time watching the games in the high limit area though.

I have known big betters who avoid high limit rooms. Other than for stricter surveilance, I'm not sure the reasons. Seems to me a big bettor would attract more pit/eye attention playing next to a red chipper on a low limit table.

Played at L'Auberge du Lac last weekend and was sorry to see that H17 was still in force. Good news: the dealer had a soft 17 only twice and busted on one of them. Bad news: they don't offer surrender, and I seemed to get a boatload of hard 15's and 16's against a ten.

In Vegas I was pleasantly surprised to see a revival of games offering surrender, unless I just missed it on my last trip. Surrender is no small player-advantage.
