Mohegan Sun doesn't allow splitting of tens

I was at the high-limit $50 pit near the Asian gaming area.
I was joking about splitting my tens, and the dealer said that the house policy doesn't allow splitting of tens.
Mohegan Sun is a strange place indeed,...

By the way, on a side note, you can vary your bets abruptly without camouflage with absolute impunity.
Go ahead and jump from 1x$50 to 2x$450 and then back down to 1x$50. LOL!
Winning $3k an a single shoe alerts no attention what so ever.
Mohegan Sun may be the only place on Earth that tolerates obvious and flagrant counting.

It almost sounds like they're flagrantly going against the PA table games law to see who bitches about it and finger them as a definite counter.

Mohegan Sun is in Connecticut

I can't believe any casino wouldn't allow the players to split tens. They should be sending a limo to ploppies who split tens. For every counter who splits tens, there are 100 ploppies who split tens.

Are you sure they didn't allow splitting tens at all, or did they just try to prevent you from doing something "stupid"?

This makes me want to go there and assert my right to split tens! My favorite index play :)

Splitting of 10 can go to lot more hands. There can be shoes where they may run out of cards in the last hand if someone keep splitting 10s...

Highly doubtful that they would run out of cards with the average dealer cutting off 2 decks. With so many cards left its a certainty that the count would fall below the splitting 10 index before running out cards.

There is a Mohegan Sun in Wilkes-Barre, PA, ten mins from my home. As far as splitting tens and attracting attention, forget about it. Worst collection of ploppies and bad players I've ever encountered. I've seen players double on hard 12's or 13's, split pairs against 10's or Aces, trying to refuse a BJ so they could double, etc. What will attract attention is a counter playing perfect BS and making correct plays. It's personally happened to me on numerous occasions.

It's probable. Ask someone to find the probability.

Sounds like they may back you off for perfect BS and no spreading. Doubling a 12 may be a cover play there

PA is one greedy state when it comes to gambling, theyre willing to offer the game but not willing to lose a little in the process. If anyone shows any kind of intelligence playing they keep an eye on you. Even if you walk in with a "strategy" to beat roullette. Thinking is strongly discouraged in pa. Sucks to say but its true.

I believe the rule at mohegan sun in CT is that you cannot split unlike 10 valued cards, but you may split the same 10 valued cards. Why this is the rule is anyone"s guess.

I got no heat in Sands (only played there once), Parx (my usual store), or Harrah's Chester spreading 10 or 15 - 2x90 and wonging out. I ironically got more heat spreading 5-25 at one store in Vegas, and even got heat having a hot roll in craps at that same store which had the pit boss abruptly ending my roll, and handing the dice to the next shooter who immediately rolled a seven.

Maybe I got some heat cause I jumped into a rare open spot on a 15 table coincidentally it had a good count so I put down a big bet...

Delaware Park doesn't allow split tens neither

If true, they need a new GM who knows math.

MS is not alone. Delaware Park has the same rule. Can't split tens but one can split other pairs unlimited, except aces (limited to 4 hands).

PS. The pen of the only a few hand shuffled shoe games there has become worse, consistently at 2 decks.
