You may remember my GF and I played pro blackjack before switching to poker...

I've watched at least 2 Circus Circus dealers break the deck when it went positive and continue to deal out of a negative deck. That's illegal, but its not rare to find a counting dealer who does it. For a player playing basic strategy, the CC game might be fine, but their penetration is quite bad.

For low-limit gambling, downtown is the place to be. 4 Queens had $5 double-deck the last time I was there.

This may be obvious to you now, but as a warning to others here: you can not beat blackjack without counting. You can not do better than basic strategy, which has been proven to be the optimal non-counting strategy. In today's games, however, basic strategy gurantees that you WILL lose in the long run. The statistical variance of blackjack is extremely high and provides intermittent reinforcement. Don't fall for this! You can't win if you don't count cards. If you do, you can only play for a short time and they will bar you. Please don't play casino table games. At least, please don't play thinking you can beat them.
