Running Count: Beat the 6-5 game (with COUPONS!)
If you are on your first trip to Vegas, or have the POV coupons, you can make the casinos pay for their greediness. At several places, they offer new club signees a 2:1 blackjack coupon (i.e., they pay the first BJ at 2:1). Other coupons pay 3:1 for the first BJ, or give an hour at 2:1 payouts.
Take these coupons and plant yourself at the 6:5 SD game. Spread with abandon, since they don't expect counters at these games. When I was doing this, I even got the dealer to shuffle early if most of the aces came out! I also explained to other players that this was a carnival game that offered terrible odds, and I was only playing because I had the coupon. The pit boss agreed and quietly pointed some ploppies to the better shoe game.
My friend and I cleared a combined 20 units from one place with this strategy. It was the best BJ we played in LV: SD, DA2, DAS, 2:1 BJ. Make 'em pay for offering this terrible game.
Note that most of these coupons are limited to a fairly low dollar amount, so unless you are a red chipper like me, you might not bother.
Cheers,
RC
