Ship: Navigator Of the Seas RCL
Cruise: Seven days eastern Caribbean
Time: Recently
Win/loss: +120 units profit
Trip High: 240 units over BR
Trip lows: 40 units profit over bankroll; Never went below BR entire trip.
Game: Six decks 1 to 2 deck cuts; double on any two cards; das, except split aces three times recieve one card and no couble after split aces; Split three times any other pair; play up to two hands minimum bet to max. min/max bet 5-100 (wheel of madness) or 10-200 on other tables. 8 Tables of BJ.
*CAUTION*: Cards are always in the shoe, never new, and never checked and washed in front of players. I ASKED TO VIEW THE CARDS AND WAS SOUNDLY REFUSED. Many times I had high continuing plus counts +9 to +15 rc's up to the cut card and lost up to 10 times in a row. SD at its worst???? I was suspicious!
Play strategy: Strict Wonging and entering at average TC of plus three. Played two hands at advantage TC's. This was due the way the count ended up before the next deal.
Bad: Crowded drunk ploppy conditions at night. Min/Max bets allowed low but can be overcome by playing two hands. Dealers made many mispays and misreads of card totals(worked both ways for thecasino and me). Dealers spoke pigeon english to excellent english. No heat at all. Recieved bad stares when banged out two $75 dollar bets and recieved BJ back to back. Wonging can be tedious and boring.
Good: No heat. Dealers are below vegas average intelligence. Ask to see burn card and most dealers will show it. A couple of dealers flipped bottmom card and showed it and continued to play it. Survelliance is non existant. I found two dealer front loading situations and took advantage.
Over all oppinion: Good game for moderate EV. Definite Wonging enviroment. I played average of three hours a day. Worth playing.
Sites: Drunk ploppies and one guy won over six thousand at craps!
