The slot machines can be set lower to gouge players and they are still raking in millions.
On the other side…..
I have some friends in Vegas who swear certain casinos pay better and that’s where they go. The word must get around. I think the locals, whether counting or not, know a better BJ game. The El Cortez is going strong with 1 deck good rules. Some of the Coast Casinos get many locals playing their 2 deck games. I doubt they would be making it without them. I doubt many locals go to Harrah’s properties to play. Should a casino allow more wins on their games the word would spread and be like paying for advertising. It seems like a winning strategy.
In other parts of the country where there is no competition the locals have nothing to compare so they never give it much thought, but Vegas locals, overall, are more aware. Can you imagine just 2 tables offered from an 8 deck shoe and the rest are CSM and those 2 tables are 50 minimum? No competition within hours. With competition stores will change and I think we have seen that in AC and Pa.
With all that said my new casino will have all good rules and the slots will be making noise, but some of you all can’t come.
