Default Barf - Mt. Airy 8 Decks

Mt. Airy recently changed over one of their pits into 8 decks.

Of course 8 decks suck compared to 6 decks, but in actuality often I find conditions better for 8 decks than 6 deck. Did not necessarily see that at Mt. Airy though yet

Another thing I would conjecture, if you find a casino with both 6 decks and 8 decks, guess where there's less heat and protection.

Yes, in general very much true.

Yes. Would kill if it was higher.

What fools. They spent all that money for those licenses and felts, they could be raking in income with it, but instead they choose to not only make very little with it, but make the maximum bet something that will encourage red chippers to park themselves in those seats all day. There's no reason a store that size couldn't carry a $100 max on that bet. Out in WA little card rooms carry $300 max sometimes. They sweat it for sure, but they are not being bankrupted by it.

Next time I'm there I will suggest to them they should lower the limit to $1. That'll teach them darn counters! Profits, we don't need stinking profits!

That is the same idiotic store that has 10-200 limits at times for some reason. Of course, its hilarious to see a ploppy sit down and try to bet more than $200, and he's like WTF? Sometimes the pit crew will hurriedly get into a huddle and discuss this. My God, should we let this guy bet that much??? What's the point of opening up a casino in the first place? Will I get in trouble if he wins? I don't want to risk that.

Usually the pit crew won't even bother getting into a huddle though.
