    Starting with dealer's upcard of 7 and going to T, these are the true counts (Hi-Lo) below which you don't double 11: -10, -8, -5, -5. In other words, except for doubling vs. ace (+1), you rarely...

    Yes, amazing that they were trying to give 2500 prizes or whatever...and were unable to do so. You could literally play 1 hand for $5 and win a $15 prize. But people signed up earlier in the...

    I played this leaderboard, but didn't do very good. I did win a prize, but so did everyone else who played it. I finished in the top 10% of those who played it. However, over 15,000 signed up to play...

    My hunch on this is "It depends." If you've been "trespassed" then it wouldn't be impossible for a place to have your name on a list right there at the entry. Heck, we don't even know if they...

    DSchles replied to a thread Bja3 in General Blackjack Forum

    MJ1 replied to a thread CVCX: Minimum bet in Software
