The $10 spent to gain admission goes for the meal that would be purchased anyway, rather than paying an admission/membership fee.Įxactly. I expect to do the same thing when I visit there next month, except I will be picking up a $1 chip. I suspect that Silversonic2006 will pay $5 for the chip, adjusted by however much he wins or loses at the table. At other properties, I didn't even notice much heat.

I played 5 Phila area casinos a total of 30 times during my 2 week stay and the funny thing is I was backed off (told no more blackjack) at only one casino, Valley Forge, during my last day. This is only important if you are a card counter. All Pa casinos are mandated by Pa law as far as rules go, but what can vary is penetration. They have great blackjack rules, S17, surrender. I play blackjack for a living, so I was mainly interested in their blackjack games. This is good if you are a table game player, bad for machine players as they really only have a few hundred machines. One strange thing about Valley Forge is they have a disproportional high number of table games for it's small space. Valley forge is actually quite small compared to other casino's in Phila area (parx, harrahs-chester, sands-bethleham and even Sugarhouse, which is also too small for the area it serves).

So you are willing to pay $10 for a $5 chip? lol They also offer a 90 day membership for $20, which could be of value if you are planning on attending several times over 90 day period.
