As we all know the struggling economy has created difficult changes in the gambling industry. Many casinos have been forced to cut jobs, reduce hours and even close for a few days during the week. Most of the changes hurt people in some way. Well one casino has made a change that will benefit those who want to visit a casino and gamble in an affordable way.

The Mohegan Sun has reintroduced the five dollar blackjack tables to create more business. The casino floor will have six of the five dollar blackjack tables operating around the clock so no matter what time you come in you should be able to find a table.

Several casinos had done away with the five dollar tables as they were unprofitable but now with the state of the economy it may be the only way that many people will even set foot into a casino. The Borgata Casino in Atlantic City has at least one five dollar table and a spokesperson from there stated that most games need at least a ten dollar minimum for the casino to make money that is why five dollar games do not make money.

If blackjack is not your game the Mohegan Sun also have five dollar craps tables and roulette tables. So you should be able to find an affordable way to visit the casino to have a little fun.
