    I really like the live dealer Stadium style. Nobody to bother me, can eat at the kiosk, watch my device, etc. Hope to plan a road trip in February. Wondering if anyone knows about other casinos with stadium? I hear Sands, Bethlehem has a bunch. Florida? Any stadium there. Thanks in advance.

    I'm spoiled. Stadium is all that I play. Mohegan Sun in CT., always has two dealer shuffled and dealt games going. You can play both games at the same time on the same terminal. Foxwoods has a single game, but if you're the only one playing, and you sit out a hand, the dealer will not deal the cards.

    I played at The Venetian a few weeks ago, where they have five games going, but you can only have a bet working on one game at a time.

    Resorts World in NYC, has about 1,000 stadium seats, but the games are virtual.

    Barona Resort & Casino near Lakeside, California has an 80 seat Roulette stadium. It's great. You can eat and drink and be Mary.

    Like Chip said, I play at Mohegan Sun exclusively on their stadium platform. The spread is $5-15,000. In the last year and a half I’ve made 1.4 million playing stadium bac at Mohegan Sun and they continually welcome me with open arms.

    Stadium Baccarat is extremely low end, and even more boring than mini-bacc. Might as well play slots.

    The only Baccarat worth playing is the real thing, midi or grand, where you are able to cut the deck yourself, open the cards and get a feel for the shoe.

    Nothing wrong with stadium play, so long as the spread isn’t artificially limited versus the tables.

    To me both have their pros and cons, sometimes the energy of a fun table pumps you up, while other times the chill atmosphere of stadium play is preferable.

    Eating at the screen would have to be the worst thing anyone can do, here they leave food scraps and other body fluid on the screen. Oh and using the mobile devices without headphones and screaming into phone like we all want to hear what a crap life they are having. Maybe they’re from a shallow gene pool. Total disregard for fellow human beings, ever wonder why you get sick so often?
    Thank god for Coronavirus it might shakeup a better self hygiene habit for some of the selfish boneheads at a casino near us all, wherever we may be.
    As the virus hit Asia, I stopped going to my local, re above eating habits was my main complaint to management unhygienic practices and here in Sydney mainly Asian clients, I thought take a break wait till the herd gets thinned out.
    Early March got a call from my host as to why I haven’t been around, I’m usually there 5 days a week.
    I said as I’ve been asking for better environment to work from ie clean screen and with a pandemic about to unfold here, I was being sensible person in the herd of fools - his reply was we are still trying to stop people eating- week later the casino closed. Funny that.
    I enjoy the stadium style, here they run 4 shoes at same time all accessible from same screen, continuous deal regardless if anyone is playing or not.
    Used to play black min table they would stop dealing if no one bet, and a shoe could take 2 hours to play.
    There is also a continuous (infinity) shoe that’s computer driven at 20 seconds per hand, has no downtime due to dealer errors,
    Stadium, every hand is 25 seconds shoes done in 45 minutes
    I won’t list the obvious pluses .
    Negatives being fool eating and spitting on the screen and leaving the rubbish behind.
    Only one shoe per screen on infinity baccarat screen, you have to walk to another area to get a different infinity game
    Min $10-$$1000 max .I have asked for a $100 min bet on continuous screen but no luck yet. Thankful smoking has been banned.
    There really is absolutely no reason to eat at a screen or at a table game or even at a slot machine other than pure laziness or perhaps gluttony of a gambling addiction. Get up take a break the game will be there when you get back.
    I’m using the word you as a generic word and not directly or indirectly implying it directed at you jimske
    Thanks

    Ugh! Glad I don't have that problem. I don't play weekends and MoSun has three different areas with stadium. One is non-smoking. Two of them are pretty quiet with many seats available. The shoes are live dealer shoes. Are the 4 shoes you mention all live dealers with shufflemaster?

    We can see the filth laying on the screens and find another seat. Imagine how much filthier the green felt tables are. They never get cleaned. Crumbs can be vacuumed. Everything else sticks to the felt.

    Whenever I play stadium I bring alcohol wipes and wipe that entire bitch down like I'm detailing a CAR. Top to bottom, every conceivable part that any of my skin might touch, even accidentally.

    Takes a good five minutes of work. Don't care about the smirks or cute remarks I've gotten from gamblers seated nearby, they can go fuck themselves.

    One guy thought I actually worked for the casino once, when I said I didn't, he said "you should, that thing is cleaner than when it was new".

    And that was BEFORE Covid-19, can you imagine what I'll do in the post-virus apocalypse? ;)

    Yes live but only two dealers each dealing two shoes from 8 deck shufflemaster. Here we have 6 different areas of stadium, two high limit and four general public and I might add they run two roulette and one sic bo to each screen .
    I do notice some people playing 4 screens at same time and even 2 screens same game different bet only getting angry when banker six wins and they have lost player and half banker bet haaaaaahaaaa.

    That's a bad game. The house edge when Banker 6 wins half, is 1.46%. That makes Player the default bet with a 1.24% HE.

    In reply to chipmagnet, No one eats on felt tables here not even allowed to put coffee on table. Must be pig sty at your casino if they eat at table, dealer must hate it.
