Re: Bally\'s AC Floor: Live Straddles prohibited by NJ Gaming Commissio
[ QUOTE ]
Other oddities include the abscence of a drop box for the rake, it just goes back in the dealer tray which is fixed and does not travel with the dealer as I've seen at Turning Stone. Also in the house games area, all blackjack must be dealt face up from a shoe

U need to get out to see the world more, Turning Stone is not the center of the universe. Many casinos don't have a drop box for the rake, its not that odd. Also the dealers cards are not delt face up as you claimed.
MaxPower, Mosch, and myself decided to get drunk and play every hand when Resorts opened it's poker room (actually not a room, it was a roped off area) last spring. The floor there told us a live straddle was legal in Atlantic City, but the floor people at their competitors claim it was not for their own reasons while blaming it on Casino Control. I don't know if he was correct, but I can tell you I was a lot of live straddles in that game.
