Does anybody know how many decks Carvinal uses on its blackjack tables? I visited a site that explains the strategy and tells you what plays to make but it depends on the # of decks used. It could be a little expensive learning at the table.

they only play on one deck, its in the casino, might be the lido deck I think.

I am almost positive that they use 6 decks.

Correct--Most use 6 decks, although I think I've seen a table here and there with single deck, but never played it.

I just came back from the Elation where I played blackjack. The dealer told us there were 8 decks in the shoe.

I just got back from the Inspiration and they were using 6 decks at the blackjack tables.
