Usually $5 at night for Black Jack. During the day, when the casino is open they drop it to $2 or $3.

Think positive and win enough to pay for your cruise.

I didnt know they dropped the min during the day.

Any way there will most likely be a couple $5 tables and a couple $25.

8 deck shoes.

Good luck.

I think it's all according to the passengers on a particular cruise. Sometimes there are a lot of gamblers and other times there are not. If they do not have a lot of people gambling during the day that's when they will drop the minimums. There are almost always $5, $10 and $25 tables. Some of the cruise lines the dealer will hit on a soft 17, that increases the house odds considerably. We sail with Princess and the dealers there have to stay on any 17.
Good Luck

This was my mindset in Vegas a month ago also !!! Didn't work so much!! I paid for many things at the Bellagio!!

Maybe my luck will change on a cruise, it is my first Carnival!!! Thanks
