Default quebec

Sorry, I actually meant quebec and Maine. Are there any casinos near (within a couple hours) of Quebec, QC? If so, what are the conditions like. If not, how about Maine? I ask because I'm going to be visiting Quebec soon.

Thanks for any and all info.

Kender there are no casinos in Maine, Vermont or New Hampshire. Too bad for the North East corner. As for Quebec City there are also none. But there is one about 80 miles North East of Quebec City, it looks like in the middle of nowhere. I have never been there so I can't tell you the conditions. Here is their website, also the casino is not open 24 hours so check their times before you go.

www.casino-de-charlevoix.com

Don't forget to click on their english site unless you can speak french!

Hey, thanks,

Looks like its an 80 mile drive, or nothing. That really does suck that the NE is so dry.

Anyway, thanks again.

Terrible. There is really nothing worth playing in Quebec. But Nova Scotia has a couple of 4D games I'd like to check out some day.

I finally made it up to Casino Montreal and must agree with AM that it is a terrible casino. Probably the worst conditions I have ever seen other than CSMs. The pen was a little better than 65% on 8D and they hit soft 17.

There is also a rule limiting the number of hands you can play. The limit is 2 hands per player.

I agree horrible rules!

Does anyone one know the smallest table limitis in the Casino of Montreal? its either 10 or 15 bucks not sure.... Also, i heard that at some tables they actually stand on soft 17 is this true?

However, if the rules at the Casino of Montreal are as you guys describe them to be, (h17,65-75 pen,8 decks) is this a beatable game?

What is the house advantage of the casino if the rules are as you guys describe them to be?

I hope this is a beatable game becase i live like 30 mins away from it, and my college is like only 15 mins away from it by metro, so i'd be able to pretty much go there everyday for at least 2-4 hours a day and possible MUCH more on weekends. So i need to know if this game is beatable because if its not, than i simply won't bother with it.

The estimated casino edge for these rules are about 0.69% if i remember correctly. Furthermore, knowing that with each plus one at your true count, you get a 0.5% edge. So i was thinking, what if i just wong tables, and when i see the true count being plus 2 or more ( giving me at least a 0.31 percent edge) i just jump in and bet, and as soon as i see it go lower than plus 2, i leave. With this method, won't i ALWAYS have the edge over the casino, and actually make money in the long run? ( I don't care if i just have to wait there for hours before the count gets good, i want to make money, and am willing to make that sacrifice.)

I was at casino montreal last week, i was there for two days and the cheapest tables were $15(this was middle of the week). I played two days and was up a few hundred dollars. It covered my trip costs
