There’s no re-splitting aces nor a surrender option at the table, while the penetration is average, with dealers dealing slightly more than a deck.

The double deck games have decent rules, with dealer hitting on soft 17, doubling after splitting allowed, and doubling down on 9-11s. However, if you’re looking for 3:2 payout shoe game at the casino you have to spend a $25 minimum per hand. Pechanga has about 15 double deck games in the pit (even 2 in the high limit salon) which have slightly better rules. There are 4 of these single deck blackjack games at the pit and they should be definitely avoided, but if you still want to take a look keep in mind that the dealer hits on soft 17 here.

The house edge is ridiculously high at these tables, or 1.57%, and the bet sizes range from $10 to $100 dollars. Just like almost every bigger casino, Pechanga also has the 6:5 single deck games which are becoming a standard in the industry. However, there’s still value to be found, as the casino also offers a decent 6 decks and double deck game. Pechanga is one of the biggest tribal casinos around but they mostly have tables with continuous shuffling machines (CSMs) in the pit.

The casino floor holds the standard assortment of slots, over 130 tables, including a 40+ non-smoking poker room, a bingo hall, a high-limit salon, a sports bar, as well as private rooms for those looking for a different game. When it comes to gambling, Pechanga has the biggest casino floor in the state of California with over 180,000 square feet of gambling space – an area that’s a tad bigger than the MGM Grand in Vegas. It also has its own golf course, the Journey at Pechanga, as well as a spa and health centre if you’re looking to do more than gamble and eat. This is a full scale casino resort that comes with a dedicated gambling floor, 14 story hotel, a 1200 seat arena, 10 restaurants and a convention centre, so it’s more than just your regular pit stop. The Pechanga Casino and Resort is located on the Pechanga Reservation in Temecula, right of Interstate 15 from San Diego.
