    In Vegas this week, I noticed improved BJ conditions compared to prior visits in almost all casinos that I visited.
    Bellagio: lots of $10 (6:5) tables in the area near the Petrosian remodel.
    Aria: entry level tables now again $10 (6:5), were $15 over the summer
    CP: $25 (3:2) multiple tables under the dome (only area at CP that I play at). In the past 3:2 only above $50. Also were many $15 (6:5) on the way to walkway towards Omnia.
    Casino Royale: one table single deck! $10 (3:2).
    Wynn+Encore: multiple tables $15 (6:5) even late at night. (In past Minimum at night $25 (6:5).
    Cromwell: double deck BJ $15 (3:2, DAS)! This was the best deal for me.
    NYNY+Park MGM: $10 (6:5)
    TI: did not find any $10 (3:2), only place with worse BJ conditions since my last checkup when they had $10 (3:2).

    Summary: Heading back to Cromwell now. BJ conditions for double deck there are so good that a low roller can partake. Overall the trend of worsening BJ conditions may be on hold...

    “Improved BJ conditions” and “6:5” will never be used together in my lexicon! :cry:

    Cromwell must have just changed to allowing DAS on DD then because they did not as of September 1, on anything from $15 to high limit. Two dealers confirmed that they did not have any DAS on DD there.

    They did have DAS and LS on shoes then, which varied between $10-$15 at the low end.

    yep if you want to play on the strip and want the best odds.
    Cromwell is the place to go. I also find they have the best drink service as well.

    I prefer $5 & $10 double-deck games that are 3:2 and allow DAS.
    No, not on the strip, but Gold Coast is a free 5 minute shuttle ride away.

    Agree 100%. Are we certain they allow DAS? Because that would make this $15 game better than any DD game at any CET property at every level! Which is a bit surprising

    Planet Hollywood has a bunch of $15 3:2 tables as well, near the heart bar just off the pit. They're $10 during the morning.

    Excalibur has one $15 3:2 table hidden dead center, surrounded by $10 6:5 tables. I'll let you guess which one is usually empty

    I thought this thread was going to be totally different too, then saw the "Table Games" tag.

    CR has a 3:2 single deck game? Are you certain you saw that right?

    Yes. Both Orleans & Gold Coast are DAS-permitted (unless that's changed very recently).... Sam's Town also allows DAS.
    It's only the Boyd downtown properties that don't allow it.

    That game has been 6:5 forever.
    If it has changed it is just recently.

    It hasn't changed, just played $5 DD at Gold Coast and it was still DAS. Downtown (MSS) was still no DAS.

    Everything at cromwell is 3 to 2. Just the denomination changes and you can always DAS. Double deck is $25 min. The rest are 10 and 15. They added free bet for 10 or 15 depending on the day of the week.

    It’s a shame to know that TI changed. My last trip in there, a couple of years ago, they had plenty of $10 3:2 tables available.

    The last 10 times I've been to Cromwell over the past 2 years the double deck is no das. Also yes all bj is 3/2 except the freebet blackjack table is 6/5. If either of those things has changed since june, please let me know.
