Hello everyone,

I'm here in Tucson. I was talking with pit personnel who said with a straight face that they offer 3 deck blackjack. 3 deck blackjack????? I felt like I was in an alternate universe - like that time my young son said his stuffed animal was a Puffin and not a Penguin. How had I made it 40 years on Earth never having learned of Puffins? Mandela Effect??

I do not EVER recall learning on this Forum or elsewhere (e.g., Wizard of Odds Basic Strategy web pages, Blackjack Attack, etc.) about 3 deck blackjack. What am I missing? Is this a relatively new game? Was it created to increase the House edge over double deck blackjack?
