Four Winds

Any news on the game at Four Winds, Especially the new one that opened in Hartford a month or so ago? Is the casino busy and if so at what days and times? How does it compare to FK?

It's nothing special. H17, average pen, if I recall correctly. Also, I've heard rumors that they denied winnings to an AP.

Four Winds-New Buffalo now has a table of 6/5 single deck. The funny thing is the sign at the table doesn't say "Single Deck", it simply says "6/5 Blackjack"! The table was full when I ventured past.

Ha ha. I saw that a couple months ago. Very funny how they have a large sign that says "6/5 Blackjack" as if that is something to brag about. I'm surprised the shoe games don't have large signs saying "Dealer Hits soft 17 Blackjack"

Or "8-deckers with bad rules"!

Was is pitch like SE or Shoe like the DD at FK?
How deep was the cut (If they are using a cut card)?
Otherwise, if they were not using a cut, did they have 5 spots or 6 at the table?
I have never been to this place, how sweaty are they?
Please send me a PM.

It was a pitch game. I can't give you any other information as I quickly walked by and moved on, chuckling to myself. I'm not going to waste my time eyeballing a ridiculous game with an ungodly house edge.

What about their shoe games? Is the cut any good? How is heat there?

Back when this 6:5 crap first got started, Bally's on the Vegas strip actually had the nerve to trumpet it on their big marquee sign:


Amazing, the audacity. "Whopping". WTF, LOL

Actually they could probably do that again today and most people still wouldn't get it :sad:

Since we are discussing 4 Winds it should be mentioned that this is the casino that stole player's money. When the players sued to get it back the Kangaroo Tribal court ruled they were cheating.

The attorney (Bob Loeb) will be on the show Dec 8th to talk about this case.

Does that surprise you? Come on:rolleyes:

In an instance like this, and I have no details about this particular case, but I have been involved in one or two others, and your best recourse is the Feds or publicity.

In all cases I have seen,, the AP's had made fatal errors that opened the door to the losing of money they had won. Not that they were cheating, they were not, but other serious errors, especially serious in today political environ.

If you play on the res. you better cover yourself damn well.

I guess we shouldn't be surprised. Soon, maybe we'll see signs advertising "A Whopping 11 to 10 on Blackjacks!"

One of the casinos I frequent has $5 6D 6:5 CSM Blackjack, and you would be amazed how many green and black chippers are on these tables. What's more amazing is that there are 3:2 $10min tables in the pit directly next to the $5 pit that are sometimes dead! :confused:

While on the subject of bad Blackjack, how about these $1 blackjack tables that have been popping up in places like AC, where you have to pay a 25 cent fee before the hand is even dealt... :cry:
