So I called a floor person and he explained it like this; $50+ tables pay 3:2. Under $50 tables pay 6:5. So we'll pass on scheduling our Company Event there as we don't pay our 75 employees enough to lose at a 6:5 $25 shoe game. Although the rooms look nice, it's certainly a poor business decision to divert Conventioneers across the street.
The floor person I talked to said they made the change a few weeks ago. I was there late afternoon and there weren't many players. I think Harrah's has had 6:5 shoe games for quite awhile. Overall, the conditions were dismal in LV. Bad pen,6:5 shoe games, continuous shuffle machines.
I know ploppies help us as much as they hurt us, but the very first hand I played, a woman split fives. Luckily, I won the hand. Next table, another woman hit 15 vs. dealer's 6 and split tens.
I won 70 units in 4-5 hours but that was the least I ever played for a week in LV. Tables were more crowded on weekend nights but during the week, there wasn't much BJ action.
