As the economy has taken a dip these last few months, casinos have been hit hard along with everyone else. Less people are frequenting the casinos as they used to and now casinos have to work harder to bring customers in. To do this, many casinos have begun to offer free promotions or very good deals in the hopes that customers will take advantage of saving money.

The Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino is one hotel that has made a change. Starting now on the Weekdays, players will be able to enjoy $10 minimum blackjack tables. From 7 AM to Noon, players will be able to get their money’s worth while playing blackjack.

When the casino opened in June of this year, the blackjack tables had a $100 minimum. Now with the struggling economy, the Hard Rock has had to adjust their minimum wagers to accommodate their players. Currently players will find four $10 tables during the allotted hours every weekday except on holidays. If those tables become full then more may become available.

Since opening in June, the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino has offered blackjack and other table games, a first in the state of Florida. A spokesman for the Seminole, Gary Bitner, stated: “We want to accommodate these $10 players and are able to do so during our off-peak hours.”
