What's the rake at Morongo? Same as Bike/Commerce, or no Jackpot drop?

[/ QUOTE ]

$3 total. $2 drop + $1 jackpot

[/ QUOTE ]

The rake is actually $3 + $1 for jackpot, which is taken immediately regardless of pot size.

Went to Morongo last night and thought it was absolutly amazing. Incredibly nice, one of the nightest casinos I have ever been it outside of Vegas. First time playing NL live and it was incredible, won $50 my friend won $650.

The California casino rules are soooo stupid.

What are they anyways? It sounds like Indian casinos dont have to follow them, and can have blackjack? But they do have to follow the no dice rule? Why do they have to follow some and not others?

I played at Morongo for a couple hours in December. All I can really say is the chips were ultra slippery, un stackable.

I'm positive its $4, espcially cause I spent like an hour watching them do it, trying to figure out why they kept putting their tokes in the rack. I was finally told they keep their own bank.

They take the big blind, split it into a brown chip and a blue chip and put it in the drop, then take one of the small blinds and drop it for the jackpot.

It might have looked like two, but it was because they always put only two chips over the drop box, one brown and one blue, a $2 and a $1 chip. Plus the $1 jackpot, for $4 total. Pretty steep, pretty standard.

rick' yes you do know what's going on... it's that professional attitude that is propelling people to say you are the next "bobby baldwin" of card players...

cards only in California. Vegas has the monopoly on dice and roulette. i have played the Barona dice game it seems shady to me. im no math wiz so i couldnt tell you if the odds are the same or not. Indians can have black jack and baccarat. card casinos (aka Commerce, etc) can have no bust BJ (pure garbage btw) but not the real deal.

btw, if everyone would have voted for Prop 68 last year, we could be playing real craps and real roulette at the indian casinos. so dont complain because u could have voted to change it.
