TI: Although not a “traditional” blackjack game, TI offers cheap stadium blackjack at a $2 minimum bet on weekdays and $5 on the weekends. $5 Blackjack on the Strip: Although not “ultra-cheap”, Strat, Excalibur, and Luxor all offer $5 minimum blackjack on the Strip. Venetian deals a $5 minimum stadium blackjack game as well. $5 Blackjack Near the Strip: Take the short walk to Ellis Island, located behind Bally’s and you will find $5 minimum blackjack. I don't normally condone 6:5 blackjack, but both Luxor and NYNY have at least 1 $5 table 24/7. Also, Tropicana daytime during the week usually has at least 1 $5 table. If you do go to Luxor and/or Tropicana, ask about their WIN Cards at the player's club. The Strat is the best Las Vegas Strip casino for blackjack. It offers $5 3:2 blackjack during the day that goes to $10 during busier hours. These shoe games offer double down before and after splitting with surrender and re-split aces. A double deck with double down before and after splitting starts at $15.

The default blackjack rules are a six or eight-deck game with double down before and after splitting. Any variations to these rules are noted in parenthesis.
