It depends on the season and the time of night, but we have often found $5 blackjack at Hollywood.

We rarely go to Casino Royale, as we seem to never see $5 minimums there..

OK, could be, I guess remember one table or so, but whenever we would go in, there would never be any seats available. I refuse to wait around an hour or so for a seat. I'll go somewhere else, that I can go sit down and lose my money and go home!! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Laugh.gif" alt="" />

Carol_Hill said: "auto roulette"?? Sorry, what is that? The technical name of the game is Electronic Airball Roulette. It is an automated version of roulette, where the wheel spins by a motor and the ball is shot out by air with no human involvement. You place your bets on computer screens surrounding the wheel.

Sorry, yuck! I don't play roulette much any more, even though it is my favorite game, but that doesn't even sound fun to me!! I love watching that wheel spin.

Sorry, not to ask a stupid question but what does "the dealer takes ZERO hold cards", what does that mean? I have a friend who is a VERY serious blackjack player, and regularly plays a LOT of money and he always plays blackjack at Hollywood.

Eric says that they still do that. I didn't remember that at all. I kind of doubt they do that on the high dollar tables..

And on another note, does anyone remember when $2.00 tables were the norm and $5.00 and $10.00 tables were for the really high rollers? That was my intro to Blackjack in 1973......boy does it hurt to realize how very long ago that was!! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Yikes.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Yikes.gif" alt="" />

Oh, ok. Well, it seems to be a 'no harm, no foul' situation then.

In the old days, I only played roulette, not blackjack. It's been a few years since we've been to Vegas, but there was a ratty casino just down from Harrah's where we played quarter craps and $1 blackjack. Fun times!! I vividly remember playing roulette with quarter chips at Hollywood Casino in SXM though! Building condos on my favorite numbers!! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

So, did they put in more slots? Or are the physical tables still there? We haven't been there since they did the reno. Guess we won't get there any time soon. I don't play slots any more. ...talk about the 'old days', I loved playing slots when they really WERE 'one armed bandits', and they spit out actual coins. Pushing a button and getting a piece of paper at the end is no fun to me!

WWII said: You only lose your original bet if they have blackjack. Not true....they do NOT go back and pay for splits....doubles...etc. Once it's gone...it's gone!

Ed said that it had been several years since he had been there, so perhaps that was true when he was there last, but not now.

Ed--You know, you really could possibly just go in and ASK them what their rules are now and give them another try at Hollywood. Just sayin'..
