The previous suggestions are right on. You can expect a coffee shop for 2 people for about 2 hours of $10 per hand play on BJ on the "locals" casinos (any of the Stations, Gold Coast, New Orleans, Sun Coast). The newer strip casinos will want some more action.

There are 2 types of people "in the pit" the floormen and thier supervisor the pit boss. You usually will only speak to the floormen/women. Make sure you ask to be rated when you sit down and buy in (give them your ID or players card if you have one). Before you get up (and hopefully color up) ask the floor person for exactly what you want (ie don't ask for some food or you'll get breakfast for one, ask for dinner for two at the coffe shop or buffet). If you don't get what you want the floor person will usually tell you what they will give you. You will NOT get anything if you don't ask for it!

Feel free to drop me an email or post agin with more specific questions. Have fun and good luck.
