Rare ladrona Posted July 11, 2023 #1 Share Posted July 11, 2023 We enjoy a few nights of light gambling when cruising. I believe from other posts that table minimums are in the $10-25 range but I'm wondering if SS uses continuous shuffle? We will be on the Dawn out of Copenghagen in August. Thank you!

Neilio Posted July 11, 2023 #4 Share Posted July 11, 2023 We are currently on the Muse. Casino is tiny with 2 blackjack tables. It’s a show with (I think) 6 or 8 decks. The rules are pretty bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calculating ... er ... inquiring minds want to know. 😏 I agree with Neilio, they play 6 or 8 card shoes. They used to use Vegas rules but I haven’t played on the last couple of cruises so not sure now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which Las Vegas rules? 😏 https://vegasadvantage.com/las-vegas-blackjack-guide/ Mostly wondering if 6:5 or 3:2 payouts, or does it depend upon table stakes or time of day? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, been a few years and contractors come and go and may play different rules now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erikzen Posted July 11, 2023 #8 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Inflation has hit the Vegas strip. I was just there a couple of weeks ago and blackjack now pays out at 6:5 and not 3:2 at all the tables I saw. I don't play roulette but they also added a 000. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilio Posted July 13, 2023 #9 Share Posted July 13, 2023 On the Muse. Played BJ tonight while my wife packed 😀. It’s 6 deck from shoe and BJ pays 3:2. Dealer buries the first 5 cards. Also, dealer only deals one card to himself prior to the table hitting/standing. Once the table is done the dealer deals his 2nd card and so on. There was 1 table tonight and it was $10 min and $50 max. It was an outstanding week on Muse from Seward to Vancouver. Happy Cruising 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No wonder the most profitable casinos (on a % of action basis) are on cruise ships. Pretty easy for the house to never lose money with that limit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nav1027 Posted December 27, 2023 #11 Share Posted December 27, 2023 Just got off the Moon. Everything was as described in this thread ($10 min, $50 max, 3:2, etc.). Casino was empty most of the time with not more than two players during the peak time, no BJ tournament, no excitement. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exlandlubber Posted January 1 #12 Share Posted January 1 Could anyone tell me if there are any video poker machines? Specifically on Silver Moon? It’s one of our guilty pleasures on a cruise. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silversea casinos are very small and pretty basic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately could not choose to play Jacks or better because of troubles with the touchscreen, so cannot answer your question. 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
