Ace location/hand shuffle/cutting deck

OK, this was a one-time unique situation at Santa Ysabel...

6d shuffler got stuck due to a fast-hands dealer missing one card pulling the fresh deck out. Jammed the shuffler. So hand shuffle the one we just used. Paid attention to how it played out, and where the Aces were stacked...watched how she shuffled and where the bulk ended up in the re-hand shuffle as the Shuffler was now fixed and mid-shuffle of the 2nd deck.

The table sent the cut to me, as the previous cut wasn't too bad for # of winning hands. I then cut to just in front of where I thought the Aces settled.

Due to a very friendly table, I didn't get a solid count of all the Aces -- But I think we saw almost all of them and in our hands not the Dealer's.

The next shoe, the first one post-jam wasn't so sweet....Dealer had 6 hands of 3-card 21s that killed decent bets and decent hands that should have won. And this was to be expected since it was a jam. Still, hubby felt his BR was up while mine was down for that show -- another rarety. :rolleyes:
