A 6/5 DOUBLE DECK game?!
Maybe somebody can confirm this one way or another.
I was in Vegas most of last week, and right before I caught a cab for the airport I walked through O'Shea's and I could SWEAR I saw a double deck game that only paid 6/5/
Did I actually witness this, or did four days of card counting play havoc with my senses?

Didn't go into O'Shea's, but I did see some 6/5 shoe games splattered around town in different 'party pits', Sahara, IP, and Caesar's (Pussycat Dolls) for certain.

If you looked closer, you would have found that their 8, yes 8 deck shoe pays a whopping 6/5.
I recently heard from a VP player that if you are in search of 5/4 JOB, O'Garbage is the place.

O'Sheas, part of HET or better known as the Evil Empire, has earned a special place not only amongst blackjack players who know the difference between a decent and a horrible game but VP players as well. I do not know enough about their games but would guess they probably have some machines that pay better, but if there one single place in Vegas that has gone beyond normal effort to deserve to be boycotted by every single good, bad, novice and ploppy gambler, this is the place.

Just back from Vegas. The 8 deck game is 6 to 5. Also no even money on Blackjack. I looked at the game and said you got to be kidding. I also talked to the pit about the game. He said they are targeting a certain type of person. The place was full, all young under 30 and drinking. Waitress are very fast with the liquor.

Young, dumb, drunk and willing to lose their money fast. And someone seriously asked me once if I felt guilty when I found a weak dealer that showed their hole card?

MGM had 6:5 , 6 deck on the KA branded tables by the Entrance to the show. It was sickening. All the people waiting to see the show parked at the tables. Yet right around the corner $10 min 3:2 DS17 Late Surrender. Penetration is only 66% on any shoe games on the main floor. the high limit areas are the best bet.
Caesars, Luxor and Mirage also had some great games. Not to crowded for a three day weekend. They were very generous with Room comps as well. Must of been due to the lack of visitors.
