i change our flags to venetian 5k chips and we roll over to a 10k max bet table. we try to ask them to raise the max to 20k but they won't do it because i don't have established playing history there. it's an old fashioned game of chicken.

Huh? I don't get this. So some unknown whale can't just walk in and have them raise the limit? Why wouldn't they do this?

[/ QUOTE ]

yes, please explain that stupidity

[/ QUOTE ]

Fear of card counters. Hence they don't raise it for unknowns.

Sad, but likely true. The pit isn't smart enough to realize if you flat bet table max, it's near impossible to gain an edge in any BJ game with more than 1 deck, even for the best BJ player in the world.

BRAG: I R up 22k on BJ for the year.
BRAG: I used to be able to hang with krantz on the poker tables.
BEAT: No longer. The kid growned up, son. Gratz on baller status.

Now, if you REALLY wanna do blackjack, hit me up next time I am in LV. I am ITCHING to spread 1-20 in a double deck game up to 10k and get away with it!
