Tunica reopening The Horseshoe and Roadhouse casino's will reopen Friday the 19th at 4pm. Maybe also the Gold Strike though I haven't heard on it. The others are about a week behind.

asm's not csm's A minor point. I think vegas21 means automatic shuffling machines instead of continuous shuffling machines. I don't think there are any csm's in tunica.

Tunica for red chippers At the Roadhouse, you will probably only find 3 tables open: 1 50% pen DD, 1 6-5 Single deck, and 1 8 deck shoe. Possibly there will be a $3 8 deck shoe game paying 6-5. Not a blackjack casino. All red chip games at the Horseshoe will be 8 deck 3-2. You won't get...

Tunica BJ Don't know where Hot dealer dealt, must have been the local high school. There are not now, nor have there ever been 4 deck shoes any where in Tunica. Most games on the floor have been changed to 8 deck. The high limit rooms still deal 6 deck. All casinos have double deck, but all...

Bally's Single 21 That game would be at Bally's. They play Single 21 which is the same as Super Fun 21. The only difference is that all suited bj's pay 3 to 2 whereas in Super Fun 21 a suited diamond bj pays 2 to 1. All other bj's pay even money, but are guaranteed winners,

Tunica casinos As Ken said the Horseshoe still has many single and double deck games, and in my opinion the best place to play. Things are looking back up as both Fitzgeralds and Gold Strike have done away with their 6 to 5 single deck games and gone back to 3-2. Both of these casinos now...

44% wins Basic strategy gets you to roughly 50% because you can split, double down and receive 3-2 on blackjacks. No matter what system you use, unless you are a psysic, you should win about 44%, lose 48%, and push the other 8%.

I think he said a series of 5, so if he lost 3 in a row at $25.00 a bet he would be $75.00 down and still only betting $25.00. He does not increase his bet until the 6th hand, where he could be down any where from -25.00 with 2 wins and three losses to as much as -250.00 for 5 double down...

Don't know how you missed them. The Grand always has 3 single deck games on the floor and one in the high stakes room. The ones on the floor are usually $10 and $25 tables, the one in high stakes is usually $50. All have the same rules. 3/2 blackjack, split up to 4 hands, no double after...

My Progression I bought Dahl's book and found it to be a total waste of money. First the progression is too slow, and he recommends taking even money against Aces to keep a streak going. I play an extremely fast progression. 50,100,150,200,300,400,500,600,700,800,ad infinatum, until I lose...

Progression pro I know quite a few professional blackjack players and they ALL count cards as their basis for winning. Show me a pro who raises or lowers his bet simply because he won or lost his previous hand and I'll change my mind. I used to be a counter and was relatively successful. As...

Tunica conditions Horseshoe was packed Saturday night.(Of course Wayne Newton was playing to a full house which attracted many.) With the coast casinos all closed since the hurricane, it seems the weekends are always crowded on the main floor. The high stakes room has also been busy on the...

High cards left To illustrate the point, play with a pinochel deck. The poor dealer has no chance.

Horseshoe The Horseshoe definitely still pays 3 to 2 on single deck blackjack. They will be the last to change. If Jack still owned them they would never change, but Harrah's owns them now, so who knows. The high limit room usually has 2 single deck, 1 6 deck shoe, and 4 double deck games...

Tunica Casinos I go to Tunica regularly, every weekend and sometimes during the week. I primariily go to the Horseshoe since I like to play single deck, and they have 7 tables for single deck. Sams Town has only one and the Grand usually has 3. They are the only casinos left in Tunica that...
