RED DOG HISTORY
The game of "red dog" is
also known as "acey-deucey" or "between the sheets". The original version of
red dog was popular in the old west. However, red dog was an easy
mark for cheaters, and it was played less and less. Some casinos revived red
dog in the recent decades, but changed it to deter cheaters. This newer
version of red dog has some significant changes, and is also called casino
red dog.
Most of the newer casino's don't
offer red dog, and it is getting harder and harder to find. Red dog
is usually dealt from a shoe containing four or five decks, although single
deck games of red dog can be found occasionally, as can red dog
games with 6 or 8 decks.
