3/2 $5 Blackjack

Hi Everyone - Been gone for a long time....Glad to be back.
My question- What casinos are dealing $5 Blackjack and paying 3/2?

Thanks, Louise

I know El Cortez is, and I think the four queens.

On most days, I believe South Point has it in their shoe games.

El Cortez does have it, but I'm pretty sure that Four Queens does not have it (unless the rules are bad). Four Queens does have a $10 Minimum Single Deck paying 3-2 game but it restricts Doubling Down to 10 and 11 only (which is not a good thing for players). At least that is how it was in November 2011.

And I also want to recommend that you NOT PLAY the optional side bet that El Cortez offers which is called "Royal Match." It actually offers an additional casino advantage of 3.77% (this is according to The Wizard Of Odds website)!

Bellagio has a couple of $5 tables.

MSS and the Cal usually have one $5 table with 3/2. RecVP is correct about 4 Queens and even worse, I recently played there with a 6 deck shoe game that only paid 6/5 on naturals.

You may also find $5 and 3/2 at Gold Coast.

Thanks everyone....How about casinos on Boulder?

Most of the casinos I visit have $5 3/2 tables. This includes pretty much everything Off-strip, except for the Golden Nugget which never goes below $10 minimum. 4Q only had $5 on 6/5, possibly Binions and Fitzgerald's also.

However, finding a seat can be difficult at times. On my visit last week, $5 tables were usually full in the evenings with folks standing around waiting for seats to open. Despite that, the PB's would not open more tables, so we'd move on.

On the Boulder strip, Sams Town, Arizona Charlies and Eastside Cannery have $5 and 3/2 but depends on the time of day or the seasonality. Go there during the day and should not be a problem.
Can't speak for Boulder Station, haven't played there in a while.

Good luck!!

Another place where this kind of stuff can be checked out is in the Las Vegas Blackjack Survey link from the https://wizardofvegas.com website. Otherwise, I'd suggest that you get your hands on a copy of Stanford Wong's newsletter called "Current Blackjack News" which can be ordered through: https://www.bj21.com.

It is researched on the first and second days of each month and then it is put together and sent out (by e-mail and snail mail) on the third day of each month.
