By the sounds of it from others here, that type of play is “normal” in Australia, at least much more so than in the USA. I’ve never played or even been in Australia, so I really don’t “know” if that’s the case.
Either way, why does it matter if it’s normal or unusual? You insinuated because the casino allowed him to play, he wasn’t a skilled player or playing with an advantage. I don’t see how it being normal or unusual has anything to do with that.....unless you’re saying he has a really good cover by playing in a possibly unusual manner?
Bottom line is this: Do you think the player was playing with an advantage, yes or no? I don’t care about hypothetical situations like what if his first 2 cards are this or the dealer gets a 21 or bad variance or the guy’s bankroll (since we don’t know his bankroll).....as Bushie described, do you think he was playing with an advantage? Please don’t try to “move the goal posts” with your answer.
