Horseshoe Casino Wants Players to Be Lenient With Their Blackjack Dealers
May 24th, 2012 by Site Admin
The Horseshoe Casino in Cleveland has only opened recently and has been launched with several newly trained blackjack dealers and some inexperienced staff. As a result, the Horseshoe Casino is hoping that its players will be lenient and understanding towards its dealers.
It is quite likely that any professional blackjack players or poker players who visit the casino may find that the dealers test not only their playing skills but their patience. However, these are problems that many newly opened casinos are likely to face when they use new dealers.
Dan Gilbert, the owner of the Horseshoe Casino in Cleveland has even made a special appeal to the players to be a little lenient with the 600 new dealers. This is on account of the fact that the casino has hired most of its 600 blackjack dealers and table game dealers from the local area, most of whom are only recently trained and therefore inexperienced.
Whether, these untrained blackjack and table game dealers will allow for a little card counting and other tricks to go by unnoticed remains the question. According to Marcus Glover, the General Manager of the Horseshoe Casino, the dealer skills of accuracy and fast dealing will have to be gained through experience.
The casino has been in operation for less than a week and the crowds that are already being recorded show that the casino is likely to become very popular.

Under the Table Blackajck Should be Avoided
May 15th, 2012 by Site Admin
Recent news reports revealed that authorities had apprehended a gang of illegal gamblers and sports bettors in New Jersey. The gambling gang had illegally wagered and transacted with funds ranging to an amount of $2.2 billion.
The lawyers for these gang members and illegal bettors are not even willing to divulge their fee amounts. However, since it is believed that the attorneys are in fact to be paid from funds garnered through illegal gambling, the judge in charge of the case has made it a requisition that the lawyers disclose the amount of their compensation.
Simultaneously, just like there are illegal gambling and sports betting gangs, there are blackjack gangs that target casinos and unsuspecting players.
These blackjack gangs are not to be mistaken for blackjack teams as the gangs tend to get violent. For instance, blackjack players who get involved in illegal casino gambling and made wagers and lost, found that they owed big monies to mobsters and loan sharks. In such cases, blackjack players who are unable to make their payments on time or lose bets and have to pay up may find themselves in very difficult situations.
In most cases, blackjack players found owing these loan sharks money will be required to pay back the amount along with high rates of interest. In case of failing to pay the mobsters on time, some players were found injured or even dead. In these cases, perhaps it is better to stick to online blackjack.

Blackjack Player Becomes Aggressive, Starts Knife Battle
April 30th, 2012 by Site Admin
A recent news story discussing a blackjack player, who got very violent at the table when he began to lose, makes online blackjack games and online casinos seem to be the safer option
The blackjack player in question was 64 years old and was playing at an American casino, when he grew increasingly frustrated and agitated perhaps that his luck had not turned and since he was not winning. The player got so angry that he threatened his opponent and stated that he would decapitate him and place his head on a stick in front of the casino they were playing at. The police were called to the scene and the player who was becoming even more aggressive was taken away after a struggle. Eventually, the police managed to subdue the player and get him off the scene and arrest him.
The player was involved in a blackjack tournament and as a result had to play against other opponents. For those players who would prefer to enjoy the safety of casino gambling, perhaps playing blackjack online would be the best idea. Blackjack is a game that requires mental calmness, good concentration and some mathematical skill. It would appear that the 64 year old blackjack player may have lacked in all those departments
