Pokemon Member Jul 13, Standard PA rules. The Hun Member Aug 22, I do have one piece of good news about this place that most here, especially ppl within reach will appreciate. New posts. We are attending a wedding close by and would be there all day on a Sunday. You have to find the dealers that cut the deck at 1 deck. Search forums. MJBreeze Member Jul 13, I think all the tables are 8-decks. I think part of the problem might be that the dealers are so paranoid to hit their hands per hour that they don't concentrate on doing everything right, including misdeals. Search the Eastern PA forum for more info. There are also a few that I stay the hell away from who cut out 3 decks like it's their money.

If you play at the same table as your wife, she can raise her bet when you do. There was only 2 players total of 3 hand's so I wasn't concerned about running out of cards. Any insight would be appreciated. I have it on good authority that this place is very unorganized as far as management, PB, SM and all that. Without going in to details, I've been on the good side of several mis-pays and mis-deals in the last week or so, and you would think by now that would be reduced to a minimum. There may be a few days of the week when it doesn't open until 2pm. Albee Well-Known Member Jul 24, Incorrect info posted here. Last edited: Aug 1, Robby Mercer Member Aug 3, Thanks, Jay. Log in. Weekends are a different story. Other than that it's generally not crowded and they have enough tables open that you can move around fairly well. Not many players really know how to play. Good Pennsylvania rules as usual and low limits, and usually not crowded.

All shoe games are 8-deck, CSM's are 6-deck. They have no hotel because they know that is not their nitch. It was also open on at least one Sunday evening that I was there. We play a good bit at the Meadows. I haven't seen the reamings, but I have seen the corrections, just tamer. I would drive past this place on my way to Pocono Downs, which has an excellent 6-deck game with the right dealer giving you a decent cut. Let us know if you go and what you find. Most of the shoe games have ASM - Automated Shuffle Machines but many get broken or jammed often so they end up hand shuffling more than they want to. Penetration is up to the dealer and doesn't seem to be well regulated or coached well by the pit. Thread starter Robby Mercer Start date Jul 12, Robby Mercer Member Jul 12, My wife and I are considering a trip to the Hollywood Casino near Harrisburg. We all know it's the same as taking insurance, but it is amazing how much it confuses the general public, which can slow the game down to a crawl. After playing hours logged here I feel that I can say with confidence that the average penetration is 2 decks cut out. And some people are just pissing their money away I see people hitting a 12 vs 6, surrender 12 vs 8, split 7's vs 9, double on 6 vs 2. The 6D ASM games are great. I've seen them pay out on a 22 by the player and try to stand on a 16 with everyone at the table telling them that they have to hit. All shoe games are 8 decks and they have more shoe games than they do CSM's. The Hun said:. The PB's told me that most of the dealers are incompetent, and make so many mistakes that the PB's have their hands full all the time. The clientelle is nearly all locals - Once in a while I run into people from out of state but most live within 1. Playing Conditions at Hollywood Casino in Pa. Felts on the tables were wrinkled and worn; maybe they've been replaced in the last two months. Gamblor said:. They have 3 pits but only one of them is open at all times - the front main pit by the valet entrance - There are no CSM's there but all 8 deck shoe games. I've definitely have been getting away with some crazy plays. However, some dealers consistently will cut out only 1 to 1. How are playing conditions at the Hollywood? I may give this casino a try. Search Advanced search…. Search titles only. I walk until I find a good dealer who I see giving good penetration. I guess most are BS players but they still make a lot of bad plays. All in all a good place to visit, and definitely one of my top 5. Great summary. For a better experience, please enable JavaScript in your browser before proceeding. She is a good basic strategy player and I use Hi-Opt I. These are all shoe games and all are hand-shuffled. Log in Register. I've seen them pay out on ties and player losses and seen them take money on pushes and player wins. All the above is true. I have four "Close" PB's that have griped about the conditions and two of which actually confirmed that surveillance is a marginal at best. Service is decent, but slow at times. I have not really seen anyone that I would call an AP but they may have been a lot better than me at disguising it. Lots of continuous shuffling like at the Rivers near Pittsburgh? In the back, the tables are CSM and lower limits. The only thing that really bothers me there, and now Sands, is no even money. All shoe games use ASM. This pit has equal number of shoe games and CSM games. Gamblor Well-Known Member Aug 22, The sloppy dealers in many PA casinos are probably due to the fact most PA casinos treat their dealers shabbily not giving them enough hours, at least that's what the dealers tell me so there is a constant flux of new dealers. The "back pit" is open at 6am on Sundays and opens around noon on most other days. One time after charming one of the lady dealers she even cut the shoe at approx. One night some guy split tens vs 9 and I could not believe what I was seeing. They always have a live band playing and all the drunks come out. Most of the PB's are very freindly with a few exceptions. Overall I agree the suits are friendly. I go by there quite often and always stop. Gamblor Well-Known Member Jul 24, Albee said:. On a side note, I also found out that in the whole store there's probably people total who can count at all, and that they aren't really concerned about AP's because most of their costumer base is local. There's a section off to the right as you come in the valet entrance that's never been open when I've been there weekday mornings and afternoons. Thanks in advance. I have yet to hear the phone ring, and even after numerous misplays, and even trickery bu other players nothing happens..
