The regulator’s statement follows a class-action lawsuit, filed Monday, that accuses the new $2.6 billion Wynn Resorts property of offering blackjack at 6/5 odds, which it claims is a violation. On the flip side of the market are high end casinos in Asia like Wynn Resorts' (NASDAQ:WYNN). House Advantage Blackjack. Casino slots free jackpot mania grande games.

Effective June 1st at Mohegan CT:
8 deck
H17
6:5
Supposedly the high roller pits/tables ($50 min?) will retain 3:2 blackjack. Not known whether 8 deck and/or H17 will be universal.
Their selling point is that outside the high-roller pits there will always be $10 blackjack. Mohegan recently ended grandfathering at a lower level when the table limit was raised. The idea going forward is that they can tout the always-available low limit and forget to mention 6:5.
Don't know if there is any 3:2 Blackjack at Foxwoods or Twin River (RI) but if there is now, there won't be any for very long. And will any of the new casinos need to do otherwise?
Occasional players who go to the casino once or twice a year or for dinner and a show won't notice or realize the raw deal of 6:5. Based on the fallacies, myths and legends you hear at the low-limit tables, even from the regulars, the hit that 6:5 takes from the game won't be understood. Many players down in steerage think Match The Dealer is the best bet on the table., so 6:5 won't bother them. I would guess that this change won't reduce the take on those tables where it's made because few people will recognize that they need to stay away.
Ironically, at the high limit tables where 6:5 would most benefit the bottom line, it won't be implemented.
I've heard that they feel the need to bleed the clientele as much as they can now, before Springfield, Boston and Tiverton RI come online. Setting the 'standard' for everyone before they do will be the incentive for the newcomers to follow suit. Although that might be sour grapes. General reaction of dealers, floors and pits that I speak with is that it's a rotten move. But corporate loyalty among the lower echelons that I talk to has always been near zero. Welcome to corporate America, casinos no more than any other industry.
News in CT papers has been that MGM wants to buy the Wynn Boston resort since Steve Wynn got caught with his business outside of his pants and will lose his license. MGM would sell Springfield to the Mohegan/Foxwoods conglomerate, which would in turn forgo Windsor Locks in north-central CT and operate Springfield. But that's for another thread.
6:5 blackjack. That's the sad story here.
If it's true, I'm done. It's been fun, but I was never going to quit my day job. Can't blame a guy for dreaming that he could though. Not any more.

Thanks for the info, racquet. My visits to Mohegan Sun have been sparse since they closed the $5 tables. I guess my blackjack playing days will be over given the changes you describe. I’ll plan one more visit in the next month for a farewell tour. It was fun while it lasted. I will have no problem leaving it behind.

Good while it lasted.
MGM Springfield and Wynn Boston will deal CSM Shuffled 6:5.
In anticipation of Springfield opening in August, Mohegan is offering a buyout to their employees. One month salary for every year with the casino. They should take it.

You get a BJ around 1 in 21 hands. So does the dealer. So around 5% of the time instead you will be paid $3 less on a $10 bet. So around 15 cents per hand. Around 1.5%.Tanko

What is the house edge difference in 3:2 vs 6:5?

Everything else remaining the same, the difference is 1.71% vs 0.35% for 3:2.
Under the proposed changes, the H.E. will be 2.019% vs. the current 0.35%.

I see.. that's a pretty big jump in edge from 3:2 to 6:5, but even 1.5%-2% is still pretty decent odds for a casino game. I mean, I can see how that would screw over APs, but for a non-counting average player it's probably not even noticeable. And that's probably what casinos are counting on -- weeds out the counters, keeps the normies.

The thing that casinos don't get though, is that they will not make more money! The same amount of people will lose the same amount of money, just faster. Example: Instead of Joe Blow's $200 lasting 3 hours, it now only lasts 2.5 hours. Eventually they stop coming all together.

DUHHIIIIIIIII HEARD THAT!
