I'll have to respectfully disagree with the "friendly pit bosses" and "chatty dealers" comment. However, Palace Station does have a pretty great game for card counting due to the 75% or so penetration. I've never seen the double deck tables drop below a $10 minimum though. I can't really say I specifically search for cheap games, so maybe I've just overlooked it. Glad to hear you made $600 and had a great time. If you ever have a car out in Vegas and don't mind a bit of a drive off the strip, you might want to check out Green Valley Ranch and Aliante Station. Similar games to Palace Station, same players card, $5 double deck and a much nicer environment (in my opinion).

Cheap Vegas BJ tables have been a bait and switch sham since the corporations took over to be sure. But if you're still looking for a $5 minimum, double deck, BJ pays 3:2, unlimited doubling/splitting, and standardized penetration into half of the bottom deck, I'll bet you 6:5 you haven't seen that in a while! How about all that in a destination grade hotel/casino with well appointed, reasonably priced rooms, easy close covered parking, great restaurants, friendly pit bosses, chatty dealers, and generous comps? No, your not dreaming of the "good old days", the Palace Station is your new off strip, Las Vegas Black Jack "Honey Hole". At Sahara Bl. and the I-15, I just spent a 4 day vacation there in a tower, mini suite with a great view covered by electric drapes, huge flat screen, and a fun BJ game I could "count on" every time. Almost forgot, the $600 profit after expenses made my stay a bit more fun too! Needless to say, I'll be back soon. Happy Trails, Dr21 Off Strip Vegas Discovery: $5 Minimum PLUS Lowest House Edge!

I focus on beating the casinos through skilled play at blackjack. It's not possible to gain an advantage over the house in online blackjack, so it's not a topic I plan to cover much. I suggest you stay away from online gambling. Take care. Hi Margot… I focus on beating the casinos through skilled play at blackjack.

I haven't been to South Point in a while, but last time I was there it was mostly double deck with $5 table minimums. There were also a handful of 6-deck games with a $5 minimum as well. All blackjack at South Point hits on Soft 17. Double deck is the better game there, so stick with that. Good luck! Hey Nancy.

Your initial bet shouldn't always be the same. Sometimes one unit, sometimes more. When betting more than one unit you sacrifice a little EV for cover, but that should easily be made up for with the extra time you buy yourself at the table. I can't share my specific strategies here for everyone to see, simply because I don't want it repeated too much by other APs and I don't want to be identifiable by casinos. I usually reserve that kind of info for my students that attend a live class. Good luck out there! Hi Evan. Your initial bet shouldn’t always be the same. Sometimes one unit, sometimes more.
