A5 v3 is not a double
77 v10, though surrender at true 0 is correct, I practice a low cost error of hitting with 1 unit out. Flash will extoll his 7 side count - oh wait, not on shoes.
To many of your standard plays are on the cusp of an index deviation. Get the book below, study the hi lo tables from page 250 onwards, or the halves tables from page 275 onwards. Further, learn the concepts of risk averse, and the benefits that can accrue. Study those tables ass backwards, and then read the rest of the book several times.

Assuming you play ho lo or halves, your bible should be Wongs professional blackjack. One last thing, you're playing in my backyard - deviations to your standard rules vary depending upon province, and location within province.

How close are these casinos to the border and do you need a passport if you cross on a syrup covered moose carrying a hockey stick?

I showed your post to my wife - she thinks you're an ignorant American.

Knowledge of personal hygiene is required by Canada Customs for all ignorant Americans crossing on a syrup covered moose. This entails a hands on test on proper toilet usage protocol. If you have the skills, such as, flushing, wiping and washing, you may be approved for a limited time visit.

I take it for granted that you are a Trump supporter.

He'd be ignorant wherever he's from.

Western Canada, in my area, generally has these rules:

Dealer always hits 17, <snip>

CountinCanadian,

Even hard 17? ;-)

I didnt say A5 vs 3 was a double

So then the rest of my basic strategy is right at a TC of 0? Great.
Now to clarify, (learning hi lo) I need to get wongs professional blackjack to learn the index deviations. Great, Ill do this.

Thanks, cheers

Only a low level red chipper who knows not where to go would come up with that comment.

Would think twice about doubling a7 v 2 at true 0. Think it's basic, but would e excercise caution. Also, reread my comment on 1 unit 14 v 10 to hit instead if surrender. Though surrender is technically correct, it is a low cost error, and there are benefits to the hit.

Hi lo, wongs professional blackjack as stated - learn tables page 250 or so onwards. Whole book is a must.

Only one place I know of these rules is Alberta. Use to be one of the best places to count. For many years there was a rule in place that didn't allow casinos barring counters, after some casino encounters with real counters and teams, coupled with limits being raised, casinos were finally allowed to barr counters. So you as a new player will not be able to make much head way, as the casinos as more in the "know"!!
