Hey guys,
New member to the board, but been reading here for a long time. Lot's of smart people (and less smart ones on occasion) on here, love checking the new posts when I get home from work.
I was recently playing Blackjack on a free website in a tournament setting against 1 other player, and it was all fake money while they are building the website (won't put it here unless requested/allowed, as I know it seems like spam).
Anyway, the game uses 4 decks, but it uses a CSM (It isn't a live dealer, just computer dealt).
One weird thing I noticed is that insurance pays 3:1 instead of the normal 2:1...
If you aren't counting, taking insurance is -EV, at 2:1 payouts. But at 3:1, isn't it +EV?
Thanks!
