Grand Liboa Palace has become one of my favorite casino resort in Macau. Nice bright casino with tall ceiling. One of the best place to play Blackjack with good rules. Except for no late surrenders. Many tables to choose from. Unlike at MGM or Wynn, where Blackjack tables are getting fewer. Minimum bet is 300. And maximum bet is 5,000 , so you can’t go tilt crazy. The only downside about the casino is that there are a few prowlers always bugging the players to let them double-down their hand for them. Quite annoying.

Able, thanks for the thoughts on Grand Lisboa Palace! I’m having trouble getting the review up at the moment, but should get it finished in the next week. The site could use more comments from experienced Macau travellers such as yourself, so feel free to keep them coming! Awesome name, by the way!
Also, is there anywhere in Macau that has late surrender? Isn’t it all early surrender, except vs a Dealer Ace? I swept all the Blackjack rules in August, but didn’t think to ask them specifically about surrendering. I assumed it would be the same as before.
…From what I know, Wynn and MGM still offer late surrender. Wynn still has the same Blackjack rules as before. Except that players can no longer re-split aces.
Hey Abel, I swept the casinos again for Blackjack. All of them allow players to surrender their hand with a 10 showing. They don’t even check for Blackjack with a face up. So it’s all early surrender in Macau in each casino.
Hmm. In July, I played at Wynn Macau and MGM Cotai. And they allowed late surrenders. And the dealers draw only 1 card at first(no whole cards) Hopefully they haven’t changed the rules again.
the internet has different definitions of early and late surrender. what i mean by “early surrender” you mean by “late surrender”. we are actually in agreement!
