    Concerning Double Deck

    Hey guys,

    I was wondering if someone could give me some advice/thoughts on a game that would be 2 decks, dealer hits soft 17, one split per hand, DD on 10 or 11? How decent is this game?

    Unless the pen is FAB, the casino is playing you for a sucker.

    On the few games I observed they were playing all but the final 12-18 cards

    It def seemed that way to me, although I'm not sure what is or isn't standard. In a few of the sim programs they don't even let me set the penetration that high. But it was always sub 20 cards remaining, and after the cut card it was generally 12-15 remaining

    It still takes SKILLZ beyond the norm to whack that game.

    2 decks, H17, D10, No DAS, No Surrender, Peek
    Estimated casino edge for these rules: 0.75 %
    Not good!

    With 78/104 H17, play all 1-8, the score is 63.85 (BJA3 table 10.91 , pg 261).

    If you can play heads up or with one other player, it's not bad. If you can pull off this spread with little or no heat it's a good game.

    Correct, my error, the table was for double on any.

    90% pen trumps bad rules.

    This looks like an above average game. If they have a dumb crew and you can spread 1-20, this could be a fantastic game.

    I know of a game that's almost EXACTLY this. And, to define the "crew", they'd even show the burn
    a time or two. Bet you could pull off 20:1, 'cept it's usually a $5-$100 table. Regardless, DREAM pen. AND you could peek all day long!
