Las Vegas Blackjack Minimum Bets By Casino
The cost of gambling, just like the cost of living, is going up. Blackjack minimum bets in Las Vegas casinos are proof of that.
One dollar minimums are
nearly non-existent and two dollar minimums are also nearly gone. Three dollar
minimums can still be found in many places off the strip but five dollar minimums are the
norm at most Strip casinos and ten dollars at the newer resorts.
You will also find these Blackjack minimum bets on multi-deck shoe games only, for the most part. It
will be nearly impossible to find them at single deck games and nearly impossible at
double deck games.
Bear in mind that these minimums can frequently be found only during off hours when
the casino business is slow. As the tables fill up at night and especially on the weekends,
these low minimums disappear faster than breath mints at a singles bar.
At the luxury casinos on the strip, you will be hard pressed to find a $10 Blackjack table
on weekends. $15 and even $25 minimums are becoming common at places like
Caesars, the Venetian and the Bellagio. Needless to say, the Strip is not the place to cut
your teeth on Blackjack.
Here are the lowest minimum bets as of Fall, 2004.
