    Vezalke, what happens to double-down and split bets at these tables if the dealer gets a blackjack?

    75% of one-hand bet played across all hands at two counts has been proven to significantly increase hourly EV and marginally decrease ROR. Norm and ZG in particular have covered this.

    Also, Vezalke, where are you playing that offers S17 with ES10? And how much of the 6-deck shoe is cut off?
    Sounds maybe eastern European - we had this sort of thing with OBBO but without surrender at Crown about 100 BC.

    Yeah, that was my thought from the name/grammar/description, but I've been wrong about that before.

    I was under the understanding that playable blackjack in Australia had gone the way of the dodo, Welsh whiskey and pre-phylloxera grapes?

    Too right it has - go and read some of Kat's posts on the Casino/Australia pages.

    Mostly due to a prick called James Packer :-(
