Star Casino Blackjack Minimum Bet

Feb 11, 2017 This was a £100 minimum stake blackjack vip table. Jelena handed me my ass in under five minutes. Watching it back it's depressing to see how fast she played me off the table.

The blackjack in downtown Las Vegas tends to be better than on the Strip for low limit players. The percentage of 6-5 tables is much lower, with several houses offering no such game at all. High limit players may want to play elsewhere as there are no stand on all 17 tables located anywhere near Fremont Street.
