'Blackjack Switch' now has 19 tables in Nevada mixed in with casinos from Reno and Lake Tahoe. Furthermore, ther are 16 other casinos, in other states, that want the game, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the game will expand quite rapidly this year.
To my knowledge, Switch is currently available at the following stores:
o El Dorado, Reno: 6 decks. 21 created by a switch is not a natural. Limits $5 to $500.
o Harrah's Reno: 8 decks. 21 created by a switch is not a natural. Table minimum $5 or $10, depending on day and time, but usually at least one table is $10.
o John Ascuaga's Nugget, Sparks: 6 decks. 21 created by a switch is not a natural. Limits $5 to $500.
o Casino Royale, Las Vegas: Eight decks. Limits $5 to $500.
o Fitzgerald's, Las Vegas: Eight decks.
o Four Queens, Las Vegas: Six decks or eight? Limits $5 to $500.
o Twin Pines, Middletown, Calif.: Six decks. Limits $5 to $200.
Geoff also lists Golden Nugget, Las Vegas, on his Web site, but I'm not clear if the game is still spread. Anyone?
Geoff mentions the game being available at Lake Tahoe. Is that at Harrah's?
Anywhere else?
Switch seems to be spreading. When they're open, the tables in northern Nevada are often crowded, and betting is lively. This game could have traction.
