Blackjack 3 To 2 Rules

Best Answer: it means when you get a blackjack you get payed 3 dollars for every 2 dollars you have wagered. Ie: if you bet 10, you will get payed 15. Blackjacks paying 3:2 plays a signifigant role in minimising the house edge, beware of games where blackjack pay only 6:5 or even money as this increases the hosue edge by a lot.

I am going to Vegas this Thursday and wondering if there is any $25 or $10 min 3:2 left on the strip. I am staying in Bellagio.
Would I get better odd off-strip? I might stay at Eastside cannery next time.

You're staying at the right place.
Bellagio 6-deck is all 3:2, LS, as low as $10 min.
$10 min is CSM.
PH has same rules, 3:2 $15 min.

Harrah's has an all-BJ pit just up from the Asian pit, and next to the craps tables, just in front of the new bar. BJ there is mostly $10 min all the time, and at least 1 table is 3:2, possibly 2 of them; the rest are 6:5. The $25 min BJ next to the Asian pit (facing min-bacc) is 3:2 as well. The party pit nearer the doors onto LV Blvd are all 6:5.
Paris LV has 3:2 in the pit next to Gustav's bar (roughly the middle of the casino). The pit has sort of a long dark wood gazebo built over it. Weekday min's in that pit are $10, but I don't know about later; think they go up at night, but not more than $25.
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.

Bellagio, Tropicana, and Treasure Island are your best bets for finding 3 or more 3:2 games for $15 or under on the strip. Bellagio S17 for $25 until mid afternoon weekdays, occasionally 1 table on swing.

I made a thread regarding updating Strip blackjack condition a while ago.

This can be used as another source/guide. As others have often mentioned, things have been deteriorating at a very rapid pace on the Strip in recent week as far as blackjack conditions are concerned, the 3:2 rule in particular.

I can confirm (as can you now, I'm sure) that Bellagio is a great place for 3:2 tables. From my experience over the weekend, there is usually 1-2 $25 6-deck shoe tables with no CSM, even at peak hours. The double (or maybe they were triple?) deck games are $100 tables and I think don't offer late surrender.
Based on some of my friends' reports, Ellis Island (near the strip, but mostly for locals, I think) has $5 tables that are 3:2, and also double (or triple?) deck, although also no surrender and I assume for more than $5 min.

There was a time that Las Vegas was flush with single deck blackjack games that paid 3-2 on an ace and a face. That is no longer the case. Most single deck blackjack games in Las Vegas only pay 6-5 on a natural.

El Cortez, located just east of the Fremont Street Experience downtown, is one of two casinos in Las Vegas that still spreads 3-2 single deck blackjack. The game is found at most of its tables. The minimum bet is usually $5, but peak hours may become $10. Players may double down on any two cards but not after splitting. The dealer hits soft 17. Split aces receive only one card each. Surrender is not permitted.

Silverton Single Deck Blackjack

Silverton offers single deck blackjack. It is down to just one table at this locals’ casino located south of the Las Vegas Strip. The rules are a bit tighter here than they are at El Cortez. Players may only double down on 10 and 11 and not at all after splitting. The dealer hits soft 17. Re-split aces and surrender are not permitted. The minimum bet is usually $10.

Blackjack players willing to drive an hour will find a good single deck game in Mesquite. It is at Eureka Casino. Players may double down on any two cards and double after splitting. Like the Las Vegas single deck games, the dealer hits soft 17 and there is no surrender or re-split aces. The bet limits for this table are $10 to $100.

Hooters Single Deck Blackjack Removed

Blackjack Pays 2 To 1

Hooters removed its 3-2 single deck tables in 2017. All blackjack games at Hooters now pay 6-5. This includes video blackjack.

What Happened to 3-2 Single Deck Blackjack Games on the Vegas Strip?

There are no 3-2 single deck blackjack game on the Las Vegas Strip these days. These casinos tightened up over the years. Single deck games became double deck or shoes with six or eight decks. The single deck games that remained started paying 6-5 on a natural.

Casinos bet on the fact that players would still give action to 6-5 single deck games with the attitude that they wouldn’t know how much that affected the odds or just not care. The belief among some gamblers was that 6-5 single deck is still better than a 3-2 game with more decks. Unless there are unusual rules, this is simply not the case.

What You can Play Instead?

Players that do not have access to the 3-2 single deck games should choose double deck games. At Treasure Island, players will find a $10 double deck with double down before and after splitting. This game hits soft 17, however, for $25 the dealer stands on all 17’s. Most MGM properties offer the hit soft 17 game for $25 and stand on all 17 games for $50 or $100.
