    "No. I am correct about what Don want to say. Period."

    Very new concept for me. :-) But no, sorry, you aren't correct.

    Not always the case. There are significant differences in Basic Strategy for different Hole Card rules as well as the general rules of the game.

    davethebuilder, do you really think the OP was asking a hole carding question?

    No, I don't think so. Hole Carding as a playing technique has nothing to do with it. I was referring to whether the dealer took a second card or not prior to any action and if not how the hand should be played and then resolved should the dealer have a BJ and the player has multiple splits and/or doubles. All I am saying, as Norm did, is that the Basic Strategy changes depending on the rules and the strategy used. I also gave a couple of examples to highlight the case.

    "BS is to always split 8,8 vs. T, any number of decks, any combination of normal rules (except if early surrender is permitted)."

    Don't you consider ENHC as normal rule ?

    "Don't you consider ENHC as normal rule ?"

    In Europe, yes! :-) But yet again, the point is that ENHC strategy is to HIT 8,8, v. T. It only becomes surrender if, obviously, surrender is offered. And, if surrender is offered in conjunction with ENHC, well, we call it early surrender!

    Vous pigez?

    OK, I apologize.
    Instead of
    You want to say "except with ENHC"
    I should have said
    You should say "except if early surrender is permitted or with ENHC"
