DD with good pen?

[Jay Lee]

I am planning to go on a trip in a couple weeks to play a better bj game than I am used to in the NY area. Can anybody recommend a place that has good dd games with good rules, good pen and no heat. I am planning on speading 25-100 or 10-50, 60. A place with a couple casinos nearby with a similar game/rules would be good too because if there is heat I can play a couple rounds and go back later. Thanks.

You need a better spread to beat DD

Try spreading $10 to $100. You need *at least* a 6-1 spread to have a worthwhile edge against most DD games.

OK, if I were to spread from 10-100 then can anybody reccomend a good place?

Red chip DD

Well, due to current events Biloxi/Gulfport is probably out of the question for at least a little while.

The Upper Peninsula of Michigan has a few DD games with decent to excellent pen and late surrender. There is also some very good 6D there if you wish. I've been there and played to the table max with little heat. It is difficult to get there and you have to do a lot of driving between stores. Non-Caucasians stand out and will be noticed in these casinos.

Tunica MS- lots of good DD and SD and your betting level shouldn't get you in much trouble.

Vicksburg MS- there are slightly better games than Tunica (S17). But it's harder to get to and rumor has it there is more heat.

Reno NV, but if you are in northern NV you might want to try some SD. It requires a lot more finesse to get your bets down, and crowds are much more of an issue.

I read a post from another member here and he said the pen was 60 for dd in Biloxi and I also read somewhere that you should only play dd if the pen is 65 or better. Is this true? Is Tunica better than Biloxi?
