Roulette New rule at my casino here

We just re-opened table games a month ago because of Covid (last in the country I might add).

The old rule was, $100 max bet on any single number/$3,500 max payout for ANY combination.

Now.... $50 max bet on any single number but you can do any other combinations with that number....$50 max bet as well.

Example..... $50 on #17, $50 on the four splits, $50 on the four corner bets etc. (street, 2 DS's)
So if the 17 does hit, your max payout is well beyond $3,500.

Thoughts? Good, bad, who cares Ken? (lol)

 

We get the opposite here , the min bet is raised but the max table limit remains the same. Effective to stop Marty play, the spread is a concern.


As posted previously the casinoverse will and does move the “goalposts” at their own discretion . The ploppy will lose as usual and be non the wiser, happy in their ignorance that they had a “good time as that’s the math for you” . The professional/ semi professional will adjust their individual method/ process to incorporate the new “goalpost” settings. You may not be in profit as quickly as past events but you should remain in profit nevertheless.

Think in terms of Steve Martins sobriety test from one of his epic movies, totally outlandish but he got through it. The lesser person will not and they will fill the casinoverse coffers on your behalf.

My opinion

All part of doing business at the casinoverse, adapt, excel, prosper .

I remember so many favourable situations that have been changed over the years, some games imho are no longer profitable to play, others just need a rethink, a readjustment of attitude, a rejigging of bankroll units, time control, etc. no complain just get on with changing.
It’s just a game between us and the casinoverse, they are just balancing the books. Covid has nothing to do with the change, they were going to do it anyway. Cheers

 

The timing was odd. Table games here were shut down for almost two years. The first day they re-open, the new rule took affect.

They had too much time to think of this s**t. We used to have 6 roulette tables. We only have 2 (for now). They are talking another six months before we get to 5-6 tables (lol), its crazy. The one newer thing I really like....evenings, $25 min. bet and no dollar chips can be used. MANY people stop playing at that point and the game speeds up, which I really enjoy.

I'll adapt, I always do.

Professional. Nice.
Look for the stadium terminal soon would be my guess next. I’m actually surprised they didn’t open with that. It’s pure economic logic, staff costs etc.

We have it here in bulk. I can see the appeal even though I don’t play Friday night, weekend night, the volume of people playing cause the table to get maybe 10 -15 maximum spins per hour . Stadium style with a 100 plus terminal at 30 seconds bet placements create a lot of churn revenue. Oh and just 1 dealer, no argument, no supervisor checking max bets , buy ins , cash out etc.
cheers

 

Here they reopened the ground floor only with wider spacing between tables, upper floor close. They reopened the hotel rooms bringing in thousands of gamblers, long queue have to wait for empty seats. Weekends is chaos madness. Lol

 

They converted some manual tables to stadium terminal. But the supply is simply not enough to meet demand. The upper floor is scheduled to reopen 6months and beyond, nobody know.

No change in the table limit, max table payout usd10k.

 

If your game is still a few hot numbers at a time then this would be sort of a bummer. All those peripheral bets to your main hot numbers might go through hot and cold phases on their own. Now if you can use them to target good patches then it's cool. Time to put on your thinking cap again. You did real good with a few hot numbers. I was amazed with what you came up with. It's practical. Spike said something a few days ago. You could watch the activity of streets, double streets, and quad bets to find hot spots that help identify hottest numbers. It's hard on the brain but doable. "If it was easy, everyone would be doing it."

 

The usual suspects have nothing to be concerned with but the martingale crowd is in for a big surprise .

The squeeze is on. Ouch!

 

The casino is doing it because they're having financial problems, and or they don't have enough game protection due to staff shortages. They probably can't handle too much variance right now. I've seen this happen at casinos before.
