Bininos Double deck game is now being dealt out of a shoe .

And there are down to 1 table of single deck paying 3 to 2 with a 25 minimum and a 2,000 max bet

The rest of the tables are all paying 6 to 5 on their 1 deck games

I remember when they used to pay 2:1 on blackjacks every Christmas.

This fact shouldn't hurt the game unless the pen. is reduced, right?
Mathematically, no. But it does pretty much eliminate the shot at the hole card. I think Plaza and LVC are now both dealing double deck out of a shoe as well. Plaza started doing this this past September.

Look Again

As a NFL referee would say " Upon Further Review"

This weekend at Binions in a pit that was not open on Thursday night one of their Double Deck games were being pitched and not out of the shoe.

The other Double Deck game that I referred to on Thursday night is still being dealt out of the shoe

So this may be an experiment by Binions to see the customers reaction's .Can you really figure out what casino management is really thinking .

No Time out will be charged

Is there a "trend" by the casinos that offer both shoe and pitch games to play the pitch games only on the higher limit tables? This is true at AmeriStar in KC...or was the last time I checked.

shoe games are probably faster to play so perhaps as players we should prefer those?
Also, the cards are dealt face-up which is beneficial to card counters. It's not as beneficial as front-loading, but you have to take advantage of what you can get. :)

I remember when the Horseshoe used to lay the deck flat on the table and let the player cut the deck by lifting the cards off the top of the pile and dropping them on the table. I'm sure a few smart players took advantage of that huge opportunity so the casino began using the plastic cut cards (like everyplace else does). It just goes to show you - you've got to keep your eyes open and get your advantage before the casino gets wise to their mistakes!
