Maybe several casinos will cater to VP players, but most will shun them.

The casino's will certainly be struggling to get back that lost revenue.
Their 2-3% edge on bad players on good games,and 5-6% on most available games outside of Vegas, does not compare to the edge on their favorite slot players.
Math people,feel free to correct my above butt-numbers. :wacko:

i think im going to stop using the benefits atleast until casinos open.
playing it safe maybe playing it smart
I'm a bit confused. How can you use the benefits if the casinos aren't open?
online features.

Tech, I think the future is gone for VP players when this is over.
Bob and Richard had split views on vegas with blackjack tables when vegas re-open, no one knows the un-written future until becomes known.

With likely having to play in front of plexiglass until this really blows over, i don't think blackjack will recover quickly. :(

These will start being more prevalent in the future. Fire keepers has one and Southland Racing near Memphis but in Arkansas is nothing but these types of tables. Although blackjack is shown, they come in most game types.

if i owned a casino i would have the worst games possible all the way from 6/5 jacks to lose on a push on blackjack pays even money i would have a 4 slot zero wheel that would make excaliber look like a good casino! and you know what? they would still come in droves, however i would like to know which casino makes more money at each year the one with the worst games vs the ones with best games (assuming each casino gave equal comps)

There is some evidence to suggest that casinos in PA which have the best blackjack rules in the country mandated by law, are doing better then casinos in nearby jurisdictions with less favorable rules.

I've been to Rivers in Pittsburgh a few different times and it's always been packed. Day and night.
