Blackjack Switch in AC?

#1
Does anyone know if Blackjack Switch is played in any casino in Atlantic City?
I understand that Taj Mahal had it some 5 years ago. Do they still have it?
Thanks.

They do not offer it anymore, for that matter i dont think any store on the east coast offers that game.

Harry,

This is even worse than your Turning Stone Casino post !

BJ Switch is BETTER than commonplace BJ and significantly so.

The House edge is about .18% to .21%
That is 1/2 of what most BJ games are !
It is just not amenable to Card Counting
as in most places due to they use C.S.M.'s
[Continuous Shuffle Machines.]

Pulleeze stop posting misinformation.

There are full-time professional players on this forum.
There are math experts and people who have been heavily involved
with games and gambling since long before you were conceived.

Just develop a little modesty and understand that you have absorbed a
lot of misinformation from the uninformed, those that we term "ploppies"

They used to have it.

I just can't believe they still have it.

I don't think it lasted 2 or 3 months before they screwed Geoff Hall in their ignorance.

It's at the southern Indiana casino, but it may be all CSM. Was all CSM before Argosy went to Hollywood, but I don't know now.

Like many alternative games/rules/sidebets, it's very profitable for both casinos and AP, and the casinos will make a lot more money from this thing than the AP's.

But the attitude of most East Coast stores is not against profitable or alternative games but against table games in general. They really only care about slots and slot players, and if it wasn't for the all-slots converted racetracks around as strong competition for slot players, I suspect at least one Northeast store would have already dumped all table games and went all-slots.

So when they see a game like Blackjack Switch, they see first having to pay cash to buy the game and then having to train personnel to deal and protect it, and to their peanut brains it's just not worth the trouble, especially for one table.
