    Private live blackjack table summary

    If blackjack's your game you want to play casinos with private/dedicated blackjack tables...the more the better.
    Why?
    • greater seat availability (no need to bet behind, play a one-to-many variation, or wait for available seats)
    • greater limit range...private tables give casinos scope to offer more limit variation
    • more giveaways...casino control of the table allows for bonus card and other promos offering extra cash

    So, in descending order from most private blackjack tables down, here's the list...
    (Promo frequency refers to private live blackjack table specific giveaways...not casino wide promos)

    Whereas Ladbrokes keep acquiring baccarat tables.

    Ladbrokes now have 3 tables capacity (although only 2 tables have been open recently).

    A blackjack table was changed into the Ladbrokes Mini baccarat table.

    Why?
    • greater seat availability (no need to bet behind, play a one-to-many variation, or wait for available seats)

    Despite William Hill's numerous tables it can be almost impossible to get a seat when promotions are running.

    There are a handful of William Hill regulars who open 4 tables and take every seat that becomes available at the tables as they 'chase bonus cards' .... typically occupying 10+ seats across the tables, and then playing all seats when a promotion card is brought to the shoe.

    > Of course they know that ALL bonus/promotion cards go to players at Evolution (not burnt or dealer discarded cards).

    That's an easy fix ....they should just implement a per player seat limit that gets more stringent as available seats dwindle.

    Even better...to keep everyone happy... add another 10 tables!

    Lot of private blackjack tables added over the last year...notably at William Hill, Unibet and Grosvenor with their new private areas, and Pokerstars with their big live games launch

    One more thing I like about private tables(at least at bwin) is that they don't scold you for not playing the side bets. It gets annoying quickly at the general tables.

    I hear you Zvenobg, and welcome to forum, but I must be playing the wrong private tables.

    In my experience private/dedicated table dealers can be serial offenders for pushing (side bets, slots, sports betting,..) whatever they’ve been told to say.....that’s if they want to remain on a particular team, with different teams being on different pay at the same studio, kudos among dealers etc.

    Well maybe it's just the clubhouse? If yes, a very cool decision. Or was I just lucky?
    Another solution is to play at a language table I don't understand like Greek.

    sports betting
    Only just sat down at an empty William Hill private table today and the dealer started asking if I watched any sports, placed any bets,.... I should look at the betting section..... all without any input from my side.

    I played one game round and left the table, I wasn’t willing to endure any more blah blah
