BCEagle78 Posted January 4, 2016 #1 Share Posted January 4, 2016 (edited) Anybody recently notice what the minimum bets are on Holland America, specifically for Blackjack? We were on Princess a few months ago and we found that the minimum bet for blackjack was now $10 after being at $5 for many years. Did Holland America "follow suit"?

ithaca gal Posted January 4, 2016 #2 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Anybody recently notice what the minimum bets are on Holland America, specifically for Blackjack? We were on Princess a few months ago and we found that the minimum bet for blackjack was now $10 after being at $5 for many years. Did Holland America "follow suit"? We have been on HAL cruises when the minimum Blackjack bet was $5 and when it was $10. It seems to depend on the cruise. At any rate, we cruised on the Eurodam during Thanksgiving week and the week after. There were $5 tables and $10 tables. Good luck!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
take us away Posted January 4, 2016 #3 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Also found that the $5 limit tables are still there and very popular. One day there was $1 blackjack - it was a blast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirkNC Posted January 4, 2016 #4 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I think it depends how busy they are. When things are slower they tend to have a $5 table. You can always ask them to open one, if they have enough dealers they usually will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedmondCruiser Posted January 4, 2016 #5 Share Posted January 4, 2016 On the Amsterdam they had $5 and $10 tables. The $10 table had better odds on a black jack than the $5 table. Incentive ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayS Posted January 5, 2016 #7 Share Posted January 5, 2016 (edited) I was on the 50 day Maasdam. The BJ's started out at $5. Later in the cruise they dropped it to $3. I think it was the same for "Fun BJ" and 3 Card Poker. The problem is a Blackjack pays only 6 for 5 NOT 3 for 2.

Rockfan2 Posted January 6, 2016 #8 Share Posted January 6, 2016 We just got off the Zuiderdam. There was $5 Black Jack, Fun 21, Three Card Poker, Let it Ride, roulette, and Caribbean Stud. $10 black jack. Also Craps bit we didn't play so not sure of the limit. Electronic Poker for $1/$2 games. One Black Jack table was $25 by request but when he wasn't playing it was $10. Rockfan2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
