Nearly every Las Vegas casino offering table games deals a six- or eight-deck blackjack game. The house edge between the two is only about 0.02%. For this reason, we combine them into the same page. Some casinos deal both a six- and eight-deck game. In general, the six-deck game is in high-limit, while the eight-deck game is on the main casino floor.
Most casinos along the Las Vegas Strip, plus a few downtown and locals casinos, deal 6:5 shoe games. These are typically at lower-limit tables. We do not include these in the report. However, in many cases, it does not take that much higher of a bet to get the 3:2 payout. In some cases, it can even be the same minimum bet at both tables.
