Can anyone tell me what the BJ conditions and rules are at the Rivers Casino in Pittsburgh? Also, how crowded on a Thursday or Saturday night.

Not good. They continue to convert ASM tables to CSM tables. I hope they are not planning 100% ASM tables for the whole casino.

The good thing is that as the more ASM tables appear, the more crowd disappear. Two months ago, you can't find a seat on Saturday night. Now there are plenty of seats open for business. You don't have to wait hours for a seat.

Monday and Tuesday are the least busiest nights.
 
I was there on a Friday night the day before a Pitt football game. Got a seat fairly quickly at a $10 ASM (not CSM) table. Got no heat spreading from 10-2x75. I played for a few hours and that was enough to get comped a space in the parking garage on game day which usually costs $25.

Saturday morning 3 hours before the game started, the place was packed. I didn't play then. After the game, there was a long line outside the casino. The line was as if the casino was giving away free money, I had never seen such a long line to enter a casino before.

:confused: Very confusing response. Are there more ASMs (good) or more CSMs (bad)?

Let me try again:

How many shoe games? # of decks? Penetration? Rules? Minimums?

How many 2-deck games? Penetration? Rules? Minimums?

I don't care about how many CSM games there are.

As now, there are more CSM tables than ASM, much more. All below $25 minimal tables in main pit have been converted to CSM.

Table minimal in the evening is $15 except one or two tables outside the main pit.

There are no 2 deck games. All tables are using 8 decks. Penetration depends, could be 6 or 6.5 decks out of 8. Rules are generous: S16, No RSA, Late Surrender, DAS, DO2.

If you play green chips, there are always tables with ASM. If you play red chips, there are 3 tables outside the main pit but they only open on weekend evenings. (At corners in the forest of slot machines, first time visitors may not find them.)
 
is the HL room now 8 decks too? it used to be 6 deck hand shuffle $100 min, sometimes $50.
 
i was there this morning, they had two 15 dollar tables, with 8 decks, no shuffling machines and about five 5 dollar tables with machines and five 10 dollar tables with machines.

Update on Rivers. I am pleased to tell everybody who love Blackjack, this is the place to play. With open of i-Table and addition of one wing, the capacity is huge. I also notice there is no heat on red and green chip level. This is one good place for semi-pro.
