    I just found out the Wizard of Odds also studied this and the results are here:

    However, this research is still incomplete. If the player cannot split and double down on a match play coupon, it seems nobody hasn’t provided a basic strategy deviation.

    See page 11. There are some hit/stand deviations there. If you can't double or split then ... don't. What's the issue?

    You are right. I only read a 4-page version of this article and haven’t seen these variations on page 11. Grosjean has considered it.

    Yeah, my $1,000 bet won tonight. Now we will see on Sunday how my parlay bets go. Well got to get back to my blackjack. I have to bet a quarter of a million by Sunday midnight to win another $1,000 free bet along with some $4,000 in credits.

    Hey MWP, I just watched a movie that was filmed in your area - Anatomy of a Murder.

    The movie was not only filmed in Big Bay, MI, but the actual murder that the movie was based on occurred in Big Bay. Why don't you make a trip to the U.P. and go to the Lumberjack Tavern and see the bullet holes still in the wall. By the way, you will be close to the Huron Mountains which are the highest elevation in MI. I hear they got snow in the higher elevations.

    No way are you going to make $250,000 in time playing red chips. I actually made my $250,000 yesterday evening a day early. I had a real interesting $800 bet where I lost my cool. I'm sure you will call me an idiot. However, I won my $1,000 free bet and have it on the Packer's game today at under 48.

    I just won my $1,000 bet taking the under on the Packer game. Still didn't win any of my parlay bets.

    Here is what a professional sports handicapper has to say about parlay bets. Norm, I hope it is okay to link to this site. Once in awhile there is some good info.

    The site is absolutely horrid. I delinked the cites. But, I left them in so users can copy them to a browser.

    Thanks for the invitation, but I'll pass. Michigan is one of 5 or so states I've never been to. I was close once, at Blue Chip casino.

    I recorded the movie from TCM a while ago and finally got around to watching it. It was a very good movie.

    One thing I didn't get, weather-related, is none of the trees had leaves, but there was no snow around, so it must have been early October? Yet, Jimmy Stewart was driving around in a convertible with the top down
