Blackjack Table Minimum?

[honeybelle7]

Does anyone know what the Blackjack tables minimums are? Sailing on Independence July 7th. Last time I played was on Freedom and that was a while ago.

 

Thanks!

minimum bets are $10 and up for blackjack

I have seen $6 tables on recent cruises -- usually just one per ship. It is highly dependent on the number of gamblers for each trip. Longer cruises have a lot of older folks, many of whom do not gamble. Shorter cruises have more younger folks and more gamblers. The $6 tables are an enticement to try to get people to play.

Getting my $$ ready! Thanks so much.

We've seen lower than $10...but only for short periods...if people start showing interest, they raise the rates. Ain't like Vegas! That's for sure!

There may be $6 tables during the day on sea days.

$6 tables sounds even better. Can't wait!

It varies by ship. Though many have $6 multi-deck at least once during the cruise. The usual minimum will be $10 but on some ships it is $20.

$6 tables on Adventure last year when we cruised. Was only in there one night, the non smoking night in the casino so not sure if the other nights the tables were $6 or not.

On explorer it is 10 min for blackjack and 6 for single deck blackjack

Freedom had multiple $6 tables in April

Watch the "rules" carefully. Some of the lines have lower minimum tables (like $6), but the blackjack payout is 6:5. Higher minimum tables (for example $10 and up) usually keep the standard 3:2 payout for BJ.

That was normally the case on Adventure last week, but they did announce a couple of morning times with lower mins, There were a couple of short period of $6 min last week.

This was the case on Freedom.

On Liberty of the Seas - the $6 minimum table games are only from 9-11am on sea days. Craps is excluded from the low limit hours, however.

What was the min on craps? Is it still $10?

Liberty or Liberty of the Seas? :)

 

 

There were $6 tables in the evening on our May 4 Liberty cruise. I played two nights. I guess it depends on how busy they are.

Billyboo is right on the 6:5 payout on BJ on $6 table. I always wonder why they do that. In casinos on land at $5 tables the payout is still 3:2

To keep more of your money.

Its a rule that favors the house, and they use it on the cheaper tables because the know the typical player there doesn't understand this, or doesn't care ("It's 'only' six bucks.")

It seems to depend on the casino manager. I was on Anthem in March and it was 10 and then it was finally lowered back to 5 on April. There still wasn't enough players. They really need to make the minimum five and have it go 345 on the odds. they allow the extra chip(s) on a $15 bet on the inside numbers which facilitates the 9 chip payout but having to put up 25 for double odds and 50 if you want 345 is just absurd.
