Blackjack Foxwoods Vs Mohegan Sun
Sonny is right on with the description of these casinos. Foxwoods usually has some very good penetration, between 1 and 1.5 decks. Although they are primarily 8 deck games. As he said they do have 6 deck but they are high limit games with no mid shoe entry. As far as the rest of the tables go, you can wong in and out at your hearts content, and there are many tables to choose from. Mohegan Sun is a little different as you have to really search for good penetration. The best you will see there will usually is 1.25 to 1.5 decks. There will be a lot of tables that have as bad as 2 to 2.5 pen, but there are so many tables you can avoid them. There are 2 different casinos at Mohegan, The casino of the earth is primarily all 6 deck, and the casino of the sky is primarily all 8 deck. And as Sonny indicated they do not allow splitting of 10's at Mohegan either, but thats not a rule that ever particularly bothered me anyway. Mohegan has $10 tables in the morning and very late at night, as the day progresses so do the table minimums. Although during the week you can always find $15 tables and a few $10 ones. During the weekend during peek hours most minimums get jacked up, the only chance to find a cheap game are at some of the 8 deck games, or if you play blackjack bonanza, where you must put up a $1 side bet up with every hand. I suggest not playing that game.
Mohegan Sun Vs. Foxwoods Blackjack
The rules at the Mohegan Sun are the same as Foxwoods, however, at the Mohegan Sun you are not allowed to split tens if you so desire. The Mohegan Sun is actually two casinos: The original Earth Casino and the newer Sky Casino. One thing the Mohegan Sun casino lacks is consistency in the number of decks and their mid shoe entry rule. As a result, both Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods must report their total slot earnings to the state each month. In December 2010, Foxwoods earned $45 million on its slot machines, an increase of 1.2.
