I spent yesterday at Mohegan Sun and it was just one of those days.
I found those 6 deck games in the Wolf Den but noticed that the penetration was lousy at maybe 75% if that much. It seemed like anytime the count got close to a bigger bet in the later part of the shoe, it was time to shuffle up.
Or if I got close to a big bet, the dealer was pulling BJ's or 21's. Plus when I sat down the band was doing sound checks for their evening performance so I had to listen to drums banging for an hour. Not a great day - standard deviation day?
Anyways, my question is - and I know there are charts for this in the Bootleggers Guide, but is it a better game in terms of expected value to play 6 deck 70% or 8deck 90%? Seems like MS will go deeper into the 8 deck shoe so it is better?
Thanks
