Schipol Airport Amsterdam

If you have some time to kill, there is a small casino inside of the airport in Amsterdam. I played last year and won both times that I had a layover. The rules last year were just a bit better even though blackjack paid only 1:1. Now the house wins on all pushes of 17 or higher except for 21 or blackjack. Blackjack pays 3:2. The dealer said that they changed the rules since the casino was losing money.
