RIP Double deck

[Blue Efficacy]

A 2 deck game at a local casino has had the plug pulled. It will be sorely missed.
According to a dealer what they're supposed to say is it was due to lack of play when asked about it! :laugh:

Whether they got greedy or local players got greedy and overfished it, shame on them either way. A lot of the customers ranged from irritated to downright pissed. Not that they won't still be playing there anyway.

This happened at a casino near me, last year. The DD game lasted from the spring through the fall. When they first offered it, my friend who works there told me that I should play the game because it had been getting "b**ch-slapped" lol. Obviously it got slapped a little too hard and the game is gone now. Actually this casino has ALOT of 6:5 tables now too, where before they didn't have any.

Needless to say I am glad 6-5 is not allowed in my gaming jurisdiction.

6/5 in new venues offers great HC opps. Pray for 6/5. zg

I think the HC opportunities would be there even if it were 3:2. Do you think the casino realizes there are flashing dealers and go , it is okay the table is 6:5?

A +10% edge in exchange for a -1.4% disadvantage? I think so.

I think if they knew they had a flashing dealer they would train them not to flash regardless of the rules. I don't see why you would think there would be a correlation between rules and flashing dealers.

But there is for the most part :grin:

My bad tthree, misinterpreted your post.

I do agree with zg and wookets though, some games they watch like a hawk, some games they don't.

I'm probably not the only one who finds discomfort with where this thread has been going. Spike please?

How is 6/5 related to HC? Should I pray for 1/1 so that the dealer would show me the hole card?

They are weaker ONLY because they are new at it. zg

So the real correlation is to new dealers not the game being offered. A new place offering 2:1 would be just as vulnerable.

New 1D games in LV and other venues were weak and provided a large increase in HC opps, at least in the beginning, because they were new at it. zg
