Atlantic City is much more regulated than Las Vegas. It has actually gotten better over the years though. They used to have a rule that chips could only be purchased at a gaming table and that is how it was with poker back in the 90's. Dealers were constantly asking for fills. I was surprised to find this rule gone when I returned there to play in the last couple of years. 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 and you cannot bet cash, it must be first changed for chips.
