The UK does things weird.

Here in the real world, we have automatic shufflers, but we use them properly.

We have two shoes of 6-decks. One set is shuffled with a card shuffler while the other is in play.

When the shoe is over, they put the newly shuffled shoe play and put the old shoe into the shuffler.

We use the shufflers strictly so players don't have to wait for the dealers to shuffle the cards by hand.

We use these for all games (blackjack, Pai Gow, Hold'em, etc..).

I think that's where Eejit101 was getting lost...

oh he meants like continous shufflers... wtf? who would even play that?... here they just make the stakes so ridicoulos u cant win ... like 10 min / 1000 max ... they will have 1 5$ table open but u cant get on it cuz there is such a crowd

the continous thing... they just have virtual BJ set up 5$ min ... and its a 5 seat computer game, like you r playing freaking dance dance revolution.. it reshuffles after every hand

Ya. The UK is weird if they are using continuous shuffle for their standard BJ games (which it sounds like they are). No idea who would play that (unless you're playing online of course).

As for Harrah's STL, they definitely have a BJ crowd, but the last time I was down there I managed to find a seat and made a decent killing. I played Pai Gow on that trip too and you guys have a slightly different variation than the one I was used to playing around here and everyone looked at me like I was an idiot for asking about the slightly different rules.

I think the best way to describe Harrah's St. Louis is that they have unbelievably amazing staff, but for the most part, most of their patrons are complete dicks!
