The 6:5 has a big impact on the casino edge. However, as you pointed out - if you're there for fun - then 6:5 BJ is still much better (lower house edge) than just about any other game - roulette, craps, 3 card poker, slots, etc etc.

If you do play 6:5, at least I hope you're at one of the those tables which has a go-go girl gyrating behind the dealer (get your money's worth :-)

The gaming industry has done a good job of convincing tourists that they are actually paying for entertainment when gaming. Watch out for 11:10 blackjack coming your way soon...
