    Hey guys--I know there are several Vegas guys on here. Maybe one of you can help me..

    I'm trying to find out if there are any double-deck pitch blackjack games on the strip. Preferably, I'm looking for low limits to accommodate everyone... but I'll take any info I can get. The only one I know of right now is at South Point (off the strip)


    *by "double-deck pitch"--and I think 'pitch' is the right terminology--I'm looking for a 2 deck game where the cards are face dealt face down, and you make your actions known to the dealer through hand movements only (words don't help). And only 1 hand. If you've played it, you surely know what I mean by now


    Thanks for the help!

    oh, and I'll be going from Apr 21-24 if anyone wants to meet up for a drink, an Astros game, or maayyyybe a Rockets playoff game?

    first time I'm getting a hotel room comp'ed completely...I like the idea! Hopefully I can make it happen again while not losing $$

    I don't know what you mean by "low limit," but I'm pretty sure the quickest answer is "No."

    Anyways, look over this list. I don't think it notes the method of dealing, but I'm still pretty sure the easy answer is "no."

    I guess I'm looking for even $10 or $15 minimums.

    I believe there are $25 minimum version of the game I'm looking for to be found on the strip... so basically less than that.

    Thanks for the link! (but you're right, they don't show the method of dealing)

    Not sure about the Strip...but I see these all the time downtown. They're usually single deck and the limit is usually pretty low. I think I've seen $5 tables at the California Hotel and Main Street Station.

    I have a feeling you're playing 6:5 blackjack...

    I don't think you will find any 2 deck on the strip in the 10-15 range. You will find it downtown, but some of it will be 6:5 and much of it will not allow DAS.

    Your best bet is probably the El Cortez. They always have good one and two deck games. However, playing at El Cortez means you will probably be sitting next to an old guy smoking a cigarette and using an oxygen tank at the same time. I've played at El Cortez many times.
