I'm not sure if this is the right sub-forum to post to -- sorry in advance if it's not.
I new casino just opened right here in my city (Philadelphia, PA), and as a recreational live small stakes NL Holdem player and online micro stakes player, I was excited to hear that it had table games. I popped my head in the other day and noticed that the only poker table games were (I believe) 6-max with the dealer apparently in every hand ... and not folding. I'm not exactly sure the rules, but it definitely wasn't the full ring games that I was expecting or that I've seen in Atlantic City the one time I was there.
Am I crazy in thinking that these are not profitable games because (as with blackjack) the casino is playing in each hand which I assume completely changes the basic elements & strategy of "normal" poker games?
Should I give it a shot, or am I bound to lose money even if I'm playing against other fish at the table? Thanks.
