Taking Advantage
of Low Online Table StakesAnother great advantage of betting on the internet, versus weekend trips to
luxury gambling resorts is there is much greater diversity in table stakes. The
reason being is that on the internet, the pace of playing hands - for instance,
at the blackjack table - goes much faster on a computer than it does with a real
dealer who must deal every player's cards and divulge winnings at the end of
each hand. Since the Advantage is always for the House, the more hands
played, the more money it makes.
However, in gambling hot-spots like The
Strip in Las Vegas, gaming operators have found they can make more money by
raising the table limits, even if some of the tables are empty for hours on end.
This phenomenon is actually taught in the Casino Operations Management class at UNLV, and is the route that most brick 'n mortar establishments take at peak
hours.
On the internet, since so many more hands get played and since there is
far less operating overhead, it is still advantageous for gaming sites to offer
lower table limits. And you can bet they will also offer higher table limits as
well, especially at the blackjack tables.
So, how can a gambler get low
table limits in Las Vegas? The best thing to do is try avoiding weekend nights
(if you must gamble on weekends, try the morning hours), gamble during the day
on weekdays, hit up the video poker machines, and gamble at destinations off the
Strip (downtown).
