<\/a><\/p>\nAtlantic City casinos are on the rebound. All casinos except 2 had an increase in 2016 from the previous years.<\/p>\n
NJ Division of Gaming Enforcement \u00a0provides the stats we see here. Atlantic City’s casinos had their first revenue increase in\u00a010 years.\u00a0Take a look at how each casino did compared to previous years.<\/p>\n
Here are Atlantic City casinos showing the top increases.<\/h2>\n
Tropicana<\/a>:<\/span> $341 million, \u00a0plus\u00a09%<\/span><\/p>\n Golden Nugget<\/a>:<\/span> $251 million, plus\u00a09%<\/span><\/p>\n Resorts<\/a>:<\/span> $173 million, plus\u00a06.7%<\/span><\/p>\n Borgata<\/a>:<\/span> $769 million, plus 3.8%<\/span><\/p>\n Bally’s<\/a>:<\/span> $210 million, plus\u00a00.1%<\/span><\/p>\n Caesars<\/a>:<\/span> $302 million, minus\u00a02.7%<\/span><\/p>\n Harrah’s<\/a>:<\/span> $358 million,\u00a0minus 4.3%<\/span><\/p>\n So we see that 5 out of 7 did better. I would take those odds any time. \u00a0We see that the Borgata which has always done well is tops in revenue with 3\/4 of billion dollars. That’s a lot of blackjack. Keep in mind despite\u00a0Borgata being off boardwalk has a fantastic line of of top shows<\/a>. Probably the best for Atlantic City Casinos.<\/p>\n So how will 2017 turn out?<\/strong> \u00a0This site is bullish on Atlantic City \u00a0casinos and Atlantic City in general. With the old Revel ie Ten sure to reopen this year, and the plans of a water park and hotel at opposite end of Atlantic City boardwalk things look good<\/p>\n Most would agree that blackjack is the game of choice. You need to know a bit and be disciplined to win which we have spoke about in other posts<\/a>. Let’s talk a look @ Atlantic City casino ratings according to world \u00a0export author\u00a0Frank Scoblete<\/a>.<\/p>\n Here is the table for rating Atlantic City casinos.<\/p>\n Here is what Frank says is the common ground for\u00a0<\/b>Atlantic City’s casinos. \u00a0Keep in mind there are times when a\u00a0\u00a0casino might change how many splits are possible or give\u00a0\u00a0us this crappy\u00a06-to-5 blackjack games. Casinos may opt to\u00a0\u00a0give a surrender but good luck on this one. \u00a0Most of the Atlantic City\u00a0casinos do the\u00a0H17, but \u00a0will have games when dealers stand on soft 17.<\/p>\n Do you want the best games? You need to be a high roller to gain benefit from penetration, number of decks and rules.<\/span><\/p>\n What can be expected here<\/span><\/p>\n BALLY’S:<\/b><\/span>\u00a0 Blackjack cuts can be variable says Frank. They have all \u00a08-deck games. \u00a0Could be\u00a06-decks for\u00a0high rollers. The hitting on soft 17 is now the common method. People friendly.\u00a02.5 stars<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n BORGATA<\/span>:<\/b><\/span>\u00a0You got to love it here. They still have a\u00a0\u00a0few 6-deck games \u00a0penetration of about 75%. \u00a0S17 and H17 can be found, but the H17 is the main. As I said above the entertainment and night life is the best which is why its revenue is tops. Blackjack is good here at the top Atlantic City casino.\u00a03 stars.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n CAESARS:<\/span>\u00a0 <\/b>So the grand entrance here is mesmerizing.\u00a0Main floor for blackjack is eight-deckers with\u00a0\u00a0some of the upper-limit tables of $25-$50. There is no mid-shoe. For high rollers pit \u00a0also\u00a0no mid-shoe with $100 and higher minimums. Six-deck games In the \u00a0high roller rooms the 6 deck have 75% penetration same \u00a0as most of the regular floor. High rollers have a S17 while main floor is H17.\u00a02.5 stars<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n HARRAH’S:<\/b><\/span>\u00a08 decks with\u00a0penetration at about 75%. \u00a0If you like\u00a0slots it is good\u00a0but they need to make some fixes here. 2.5 stars<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n RESORTS:<\/b><\/span> Atlantic City’s first casino. Remember Merv Griffin? Most H17 games are found on the\u00a0main floor. \u00a0High roller room is S17. Penetration = 80+% \u00a0This is why it gets\u00a03 stars.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n TROPICANA:<\/span> <\/b><\/span>Is known to bring the high rollers to \u00a0Atlantic City. Blackjack is H17 in general. \u00a0Penetration is a whopping 80%-85%. 3 stars!<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n THE GOLDEN NUGGET<\/span>:<\/span> <\/b>Is on the rebound from when it was the Trump Marino. It is a beautiful casino with a lot offer. High rollers can expect a penetration of 80 percent. You will find top rules on splitting and re-splitting \u00a0and standing on soft 17. Surrender is possible.<\/i>\u00a0However they say this to find\u00a0card counters. \u00a0Frank says he doesn’t think so as he has not \u00a0seen many card counters in Atlantic City for a long time! \u00a0The eight-deck games in this Atlantic City casino are fair\u00a0and really\u00a0the same as all the others. \u00a0People are into the carnival games. The craps are tops.\u00a0\u00a0If you are looking for royal treatment from people, the dealers here are perfect. They are really nice. You can not fake this!\u00a0\u00a03 stars.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Good News for\u00a0Atlantic City Casinos Atlantic City casinos are on the rebound.
