MJ: Splitting Aces- A Newbie ?
If a player splits aces and then receives a 10 on each Ace, assuming he wins both hands will he receive a 3:2 payout on each hand?
Also, lets suppose the dealer in the above scenerio recieves a 4 card total of 21. Will this situation really be considered a push despite the fact that the player has 2 naturals?
Thanks for help!

Everywhere I have played this would be a push.
A natural is only a natural on your initial 2 cards. After the split they become pushes.
This is coming from a fellow newbie. Someone else may know some exceptions to this.

No. A blackjack is normally defined as an ace and a ten-value card as the first two dealt cards only. A ten on a split ace is no different than any other 21 total hand.

As stated above, they're not naturals, since they were not the first two cards dealt, and are the same as any other 21 hand total. So, they push against a dealer 21.
There may be a few casinos that do it differently, but it would be extremely unusual and considered a "bonus" payout. Basic strategy and counting strategies assume that split aces are played as above.

No. Only naturals get paid 3:2. Once split, they are no longer natural. Each split Ace is now independent of the other -each hand can win lose or draw. If won, it pays 1:1.
