Default Re: Lucky 7\'s

I'll help. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] I've played at Foxwoods and yes the number of desks is important. While more decks hurt the card counter they help making 3 7's more likely.
Foxwoods is dealing 8 decks, so the odds of being dealt 3 7's is 32/416* 31/415* 30/414= 1/2404 times (good deal for Foxwoods).

Notice if we only had 1 deck, you'll hit 3 7's, 1 out 5525.

A general rule with Casinos is that the simple games that offer huge payouts for a small bet (Keno, 3 7's, etc) all have huge advantages for the casino but they do add some fun to games that can be otherwise boring.
