Surrender after splitting?

It can be hard to act the ploppy if you have some history. They know you know you can't surrender so trying it just makes you look like a cheat trying to take advantage of inexperienced dealers. I have seen dealer's making rule mistakes all morning but never took advantage because it wouldn't be wise to get that type of rep. Mispays and other dealer mistakes made on their own is one thing but asking them to make a mistake is another. It just crosses a line that will make you be watched more closely. With no history I say take the shot.

Great point but on rare occasions when im just another face I give it a try and it has worked

Like sex panther cologne, 60% of the time it works 100%

A place near me offers this, including surrendering after splitting aces. Your suggested basic strategy for surrendering after splitting aces is correct. Surrender 16 or less vs 8-A. This rule is not worth all that much since, for BS, we only surrender vs 9-A and we don't make many splits vs these up-cards. Also the ability to surrender after splitting does not warrant any BS changes for splitting your original hand.

Thanks, thats what i suspected. I remember back after i surrendered after splitting pair of 9s i got excited thinking to myself this could be good rule. But then i went through all the possible surrenders and realized there are barely any opportunities. But i overlooked after splitting aces. That would be nice to surrender a big bet after splitting aces if you dont get 17-21.
