    ATLANTIC CITY 6:5 BJ PAYOUT EVERY CASINO????? How True

    I have a trip planned to Atlantic City the 1st week of September and then Vegas shortly after, I'm currently in Canada playing a shitty 6D game ( Split Ace only once, no surrender, das allowed, stay on soft 17 ) .. I've been searching for a good BJ game in Atlantic City since I will be there in less than 5 weeks but all I keep reading is that almost everywhere has practically converted to 6:5 payout EVEN ON 8D games?!?!?!?!.. One person wrote that they did see 3:2, however it was on $100+ min tables.. I know Atlantic City has gone down in the dumps rather fast and I just need confirmation that there is no good blackjack left worth playing that will allow me to wager $15-20 BASE BET, while getting paid 3:2 for bj's..

    The PA games are a better bet so I would avoid AC. As a side note; play promotions as much as possible.

    Depending on cut card placement. At your stakes. The "shitty" game you describe will most likely be better than A.C.

    I'm not sure what you mean "play promotions" can you explain? Do you mean free play/match play etc.? & I wore out my welcome in PA/WV/MD roughly 3 months ago, I will be avoiding until later in the year..

    There's one DD in AC, albeit unplayable, at the GN. Also, if you spend time scouting heavily, you might run into $25 6 deck with 1.75 cut off. Needless to say, to play AC, you need a larger BR in order to play the only few decent games available ($50 and up).

    Often in AC they give you sh*t pen to read your reaction. If you show no reaction and play through almost 3 decks cut off in the HL (6 deck game) you may find some great pen. They often wait until you are the only one playing to pull this test. If you leave you will be branded a counter whether you are or not. Playing through costs very little and can have obvious benefits. AC is not for red chippers.

    There are some 6:5 games mixed in some casinos, Wild West between Bally's and Caesars is the only one that is all 6:5 that I have seen. I was there a few weeks ago and found mostly 3:2. It is still a pretty crappy game being 8 deckers with at least 2 cut off. There are a couple 6 deckers, NMSE, $25 mins at Bally's on the main floor.

    I am going to try to shut these games down.

    I need to know the names of the casinos that offer 6:5 games that are dealt from a SHOE

    I know only harrahs has them in the pool, what other casinos offer 6:5 games dealt from a shoe? or dealt using MORE THAN 2 decks.

    I think i can convince the regulatory body that the game is illegal if its dealt from a shoe or dealt using more than 2 decks because of the ambiguity of the regulations and the obvious legislative intent of the legislative history.

    AC is a steaming turd. Don't go. Easily the worst major destination for counting in the country.
