At a local tribal store a few days ago, Case 2 came up. I asked the floor if I could take even money on my Blackjack and insure, and they said yes. The dealer was shocked. Dealer said he hadn't seen that allowed in his 18 years dealing and no one had asked at this store where he'd been at for 4 years. It was DD, H17, DA2, DAS, RSA, LS and about .7 Pen with min. 25 max 2500. I think it's the best game around and am definitely cutting my teeth here and learning. They seem fairly lenient with my 1-8 spread with a min bet unit.

The theory says - absolutely yes - the practical depends on house tolerance. Not a big deal on a $10 bet, but it becomes a big deal 9n $200, $300 and beyond bets.
Insurance is such a valuable tool when used properly, and such a costly item when not. I’m being watched at a particular store without the lucrative even money with insurance allowed. Today, I had 3 or 4 blackjacks with dealer ace showing, not taking even money, winning 3 of 4 plus several dealer ace showing hands taking no insurance without dealer getting blackjack. I insured 3 hands winning all 3 with fairly substantial bets out, the insurance bets won representing my profit for the day.
