    Best shoe game in country

    What’s up everyone. I’m new to the forum but willing to share one of the best shoe games in the country on the the east coast if anyone is interested. Also if anyone knows a decent 2 deck game in the north east I’d appreciate it

    Stop it. They don't take action on that shoe game and they'll flyer you to everywhere.

    Since you don't understand there is not a decent DD game in the NE, I'm not surprised you don't realize that the NE region is pretty terrible. The shoe game you know of is good but don't expect to get down very long and when they catch up with you, don't expect to play within a couple hundred miles depending on how pissed they are.

The best game in the country is the one where they let you play unmolested. That isn't on the East Coast. I can think of about 3 or 4 shoe games one might consider to be very good based on rules and penetration alone, but best in the country is a stretch.

    Also, I thought I'd mention that I wasn't trying to be a dick (it happens naturally sometimes though). I was trying to actually help out the OP; he thinks he has something of immense value and I doubt that it is as valuable as he thinks. That's all. There's also no secret DD game in the NE that I'm aware of. I know of a couple and for the usual reasons, they aren't very good.

    This.

    What's best to a BS player might be bad for a counter, but might be great for an advanced AP BJ player and vice versa.

    Playing rules wise, "best" I've ever seen was in MWP's area.

    Playing rules wise best must be the El Cortez. Doesn't mean much to anybody but a pure BS player though.

    The best DD game used to be Wheeling......the good old days. Now, the best DD in the East is at Turning Stone. You'll play for awhile, until they decide you have a 1/2 a brain and give you the tap. So, where is this spectacular Shoe game? I'm thinking PA S17, 1-deck cut off......

    Best shoe game in the country used to have 1.8 decks cutoff, no resplit aces, no surrender, but would let you spread 1x50 to 2x$5000 18 hours a day 7 days a week and sit out negative shoes and give courtesy shuffles. "Best" is a relative term and all depends on whether you are a low roller or a high roller.

    The game I mentioned was better and had a lower off the top house edge. I haven't been to that casino in a few years, so I do not know if any rules have changed though.

    There were the ES games is A.C. back in the day that were supposed +EV off the top. Also Slots-O-Fun and the SD game. Both are obviously non-existent today.

    Again though, "best" depends on what type of player, AP or otherwise, you are.

    If you like the conditions at said casino I would delete post #12 ASAP. Or you will not have the game to play anymore. APs will burn it. And it will be changed. Most know better than to do what you just did.
