just a reminder.
it pays less then 3:2 and give the house another 3%+ advantage over you. boycott these games and only play blackjack that pays 3:2 _________________ Don't play blackjack that pays 6:5..Changing that one rule, reducing blackjack payouts from 3:2 to 6:5 adds a substantial 1.39% to the casino's advantage. |

Would never think of playing that game - And i will educate the ones who cant do math to not play it other - and i will tell the casinos when i am in town that is sucks- not that they will listen.

Curious as to how many places in Reno have changed to a 6:5 game? Are there still many single deck 3:2 tables around?
In Vegas its getting harder and harder to find 3:2 tables. Heck even the dumbasses are lining up to the even money tables at the Rio (because the dealers are in bikinis) |

There is still lots of 3:2 single deck in Reno at $5 minimums, sometimes even lower at a few places (Bonanza, Baldini's).
The 6:5 is mainly at Eldorado, Silver Legacy, Harrah's. I would guess it's probably at the Hilton, too, but I haven't been there in a while so don't know for sure. |

cal neva has 2-3$ 3:2 black jack. Atlantis has some of the worse blackjack rules around giving them a 3% house edge. so i would stay away from atlantis el dorado harras and silver legacy for sure. and if you find any other places with 6:5 you should post them. _________________ Don't play blackjack that pays 6:5..Changing that one rule, reducing blackjack payouts from 3:2 to 6:5 adds a substantial 1.39% to the casino's advantage. |

Thanks so much for the info- The Cal Nev has always treated me pretty well in regards to blackjack. I will try and post in my trip report what I find regarding blackjack- I am just worried about my memory after a few days. |

My vote absolutely goes to Cal-Neva for best minimums, rules, and table availability - go to the "secret" upper floor, where there's more tables! (It was a secret at least to me, until I discovered after having been in there a zillion times and never noticing it.) |

Lucky for me before the first time I ever went to Reno my Aunt who is a regular told me "Blackjack and slots second floor of Cal Neva." |
