    Only in Las Vegas!

    Only in Las Vegas!

    A Blackjack Dealer in Las Vegas that I have trained to play
    blackjack very well via Hi-Opt II did fine for 6 months with
    red chips and spreading 6-1. This week he got greedy and
    spread 10-1. Within a day his face was lighting up the pit's
    computer displays at all of the places he had played at.

    Definitely DD. Wouldn't happen for shoe games. I play DD heads up because of the 50% cut. Still spread 16-1 though because of Dbl T.11 rule.

    I can only assume that you mean d10-11.

    You certainly do need a strong spread for such a shitty game

    They assume that you're playing a losing game but they are wrong.

    I was backed off from some shithole dd centre cut lousy rules raising to 175. I saw the vultures circling and thought I'd have some fun.

    Down the street. Think it was 4q where I spread 10-150 at dd, no repercussions, other than changing cards. Think. Made somewhere between 1000-1500.
