What a joke!
I finally decided to check out the new casino in PG county Maryland and first off, the casino is nice. It almost feels like you are in a Vegas casino--- until you try to play blackjack.
All the blackjack tables on the floor have continuous shuffling machines-- let me say that again-- all of the blackjack tables are like that on the floor. Sad part was that they were all packed and some minimums as high as $50!!!
The high limit room has hand shuffled decks with a couple of $100 and the rest $200 tables. Those tables, all 6 of them were packed and i couldn't play, but it was 6D, S17. The pit manager I talked to told me that the other half of the high limit room will be continuous shuffling machines also. She even said it was a joke that management was doing that.
For those outside of Maryland, PG county or Prince George's county isn't the best place to be so it does bring in a healthy dose of degenerate gamblers which explains why the blackjack tables were packed.
After, I left the HL room, I played Let It Ride-- just to play a game. Wow-- bad mistake. Bonus bet was $5 and you have to play the 3-card option at the table minimum just to play the bonus bet. What a rip!!! I still played a few hands and only won because the dealer mis-paid me $400 on a 3-card straight-- shhh don't tell MGM. I don't think they care considering they are going to make boat loads of cash on blackjack alone.
Outside of that--the distance to DC is nice since they do have some nice restaurants and lounges there-- but be prepared to pay for it.
I plan to go back in the early AM and check out the HL room and play some blackjack-- i'll update my thread if I spot anything that is advantageous.

I received an invite for a free weeknight room and some match play at National Harbor related to Borgata play. Does anyone have a handle on table minimums (primarily craps and blackjack)? I had heard stories about ridiculous minimums when they first opened (nothing less than $50, mostly $100). Have they gotten more reasonable? Still uncomfortably crowded? Thanks in advance.- Mgm National Harbor Craps Table Minimums, hollywood casino amphitheater st louis concerts, casino in goodyear az, slots in old medicine cabinets.

If government is the answer, it must have been a very stupid question.

Most games are still $25. I saw some $15 carnival games. I think baccarat may have still been $50 or $100.

Was wondering this myself, I only read bad reviews on Trip Advisor. But looking for positive reviews on the internet is like finding a newbie who hits on S-17 vs 7!
I will be in the area for a Wedding in November and thought I'd make a visit before. Their room rates are extremely high for Thursday and Friday nights($400 per night avg.) So it would stand to reason that their table minimums would be high too.
I've also heard that their BJ games pay 6:5 on BJ for minimums under $25, so it really doesn't pay to play here for low stakes!!

There is a small bar right in the middle of the casino with about 6 blackjack tables. I have noticed that when everything else is high, sometimes you can still find a $25 3:2 table there. Off peak hours you can usually find a 3:2 $25 table in the pit with the pai gow. The csm's in the main area sometimes go to $15 but they are all 6:5.
If you are looking for $10 blackjack and $5 UTH and 3CP, this is not the place for you. They are also very sweaty.

That is the worst combination of all. Ultra high minimums and a sweat the money attitude. They must be in a tremendously underserved market.I'd rather do 3:2 at 25 than 6:5 at 15.

Was there Sunday afternoon for the Platinum renewal event (I've been there twice, barely played at all, but they gave me another year of Platinum and free stuff, so hey! ;) ).
3:2 S17: 2, then 1 table at $25, everything else $50+. Most of the 6/5 stuff was $15 and $25, too. Think there might have been one $10 table.
There was also a $25 Pai Gow table.
Craps was all $25-50, which was disappointing.
High limit room was $200+
It's a beautiful casino. I'd love to play there, but $25/hand is too rich for the significant other.
