Las Vegas Hilton?

I've been playing at the Hilton every year for over 25 years. Recently someone told me from another site that they onlty have CSM Machines at every table now. Except for few hand shuffled in the High Stakes Roon. I am planning a yearly trip soon. Does anyone know for sure if this is TRUE?. If so I don't think I will waste my time coming into town anymore ?? Since I've been set up there for quite awhile.
Thanx?

Recently someone told me from another site that they only have CSM Machines at every table now. Except for few hand shuffled in the High Stakes Room.

Not all CSM's, but almost all garbage games. About half are CSMs and 6 to 5 ploppy ripoff. The current incompetent management has done its best to chase away customers. Sad to say, the place is going downhill fast. The few remaining double decks are shuffled constantly. The only playable games are a couple of six-deck S17 shoes with $100 minimum. RIP, LV Hilton.

Thanks for the response. That is SOOO sad. I think thats why I havn't gotten my Rodeo tickets yet.My host "retired" and she ran that and the new probally lost all their tickets to the Wynn or something by dropping the ball.

I bet all their loyal customers of many many years are now homeless.

I guess that is it for me and Vegas another end of an era.

You do not have to go back too many years and the Hilton perhaps had the best double deck game in town and mainly playable shoe games. For VP players they had a wide array of decent machines also.
For many years I played there and their blackjack tables had a real good number of high betting players who played horribly to almost decent basic strategy and were crowded. Considering that this was the Hilton and not some new touristy or some new in crowd place, my opinion was that good gaming was paying off for them. They just had a much bigger percentage of ploppy high rollers than the demographic of the place rated.
My version of their demise begins with their introduction of Mindplay21 to the place. Designed to cut casino pit and eye staff, along with customer comps, catching bet cappers, and novice AP's, (also used for cheating but not at the Hilton) the thing delivered just what the genius who never thought about his players and staff, deserved: A disaster. It slowed down the game, rumor had it that some pit staff sabotoged it and just as importantly no one there, with power, ever took into consideration the superstitions of their clientel and the fact that the Hilton had nothing to offer them if they were not comfortable on a Mindplay table. Their high rollers, not even understanding the capabilites of the device, did not want to play with some new gizmo at their table. They fled, became customers of places like the big B, Wynn, Venetian etc, and the sacred drop dropped and dropped and dropped, till they removed Mindplay but it was too late.
Trouble was the Hilton was unable to bring their old customers back so the next move was with their reduced drop they decided to overcome this by increasing their hold by increasing the house edge on all their games. That has not worked either, as the Hilton, located close to the wrong end of strip, has nothing that will attract enough ploppies with fat wallets to ever bring their blackjack numbers back up to where they were.

Harrah's may have killed Caesars but the Hilton committed suicide

PERSPECTIVE. I remember when that happened!!! I was livid and avoided those tables like the plague. But since I didn't play at them I think my rating dropped anyway...I think (what it seemed like) the pit was instructed to reduced the average bet if you weren't at those tables??? Any way it seemed chicken shit to me since I was such a long time player and was taken care of for years.

I also notice what I think was them "buying out" disgruntled employees who were there since tyhe Elvis years!!! that didn't like the changes either.

they have the Star Trek amusement. :)
