Casino payouts

We're on the crown princess. I usually play blackjack every night at $10 table...usually betting more than $10. Shock!!! Princess pays 6:5 on blackjack on $6 and $10 tables....and 3:2 only on $25 table. If you play $25 at the $10 table you still only get 6:5 on a blackjack.

Really scuzzy imho....and they don't tell you unless you ask.

Not to worry...I'll play craps on this cruise. I just feel sorry for all those who are essentially being fleeced a bit by princess.

It's been that way for a while and the payback used to be posted on the tables. If they removed it that stinks.

I have found this to be true in Las Vegas as well.

Most Vegas and some Reno/Tahoe casinos have also switched to 6/5. Just one more way to improve the house edge.

How many times have you heard this one. If it wasn't for bad luck. I wouldn't have any luck at all. So I stay out of the Casino. ;) :).

I knew about the 6/5 on a $5 but this is news to me on the $10

Not that is matters that much ... the number of times I get an actual BJ ....:(

You too, eh? I always say there have to be those who always lose in order to fund those who actually win. That's me. I would be better off just handing them my money and not wasting time gambling. Of course I'm also "the guy" who doesn't eat crab and "the guy" who has never ordered Starbucks. Hey, somebody has to do it!

They just want your $$$.

They do have Fun-21 (really Spanish 21). I rarely play blackjack anymore (unless playing at the $25 table - which isn't always open). Don't play the goofy side bet since there are no Kings (or is it Queens) unless you are sure the shoe is 10 rich. I usually do pretty well. Read the book on Spanish 21 -- while the basic strategy is pretty much the same there are interesting variations (such as doubling on 12 in certain situations).
