H17
Case in point: A few years back, Caesars Palace in Las Vegas changed its mid-level ($25 and $50) six deck shoe games from stand to hit soft 17. I recall a solid basic strategy player who had taken out a $3,000 marker getting beaten by a dealer’s three-ace-three-three when she had 18 or 19. That brought the change to her attention, and she was not shy about expressing her displeasure, unfortunately to no effect. I hope she voted with her feet and found a stand 17 game elsewhere, as I did.
