Default Basic Strat

Hello , I have a question about one of the bs charts im using 8 decks, stand S17, double after split. I have a question my chart only goes up to 17 and then aces and pairs. But what if I have 18, 19, should I ever double or split? Or do I just always stand. Because the chart says always stand 17... so.....

Stand. The splitting decisions should be shown in the pair section. All non-pair hard totals of 17 or more should not be hit.

Call them and ask.

Most casinos have an 1-800 number.
Ask to be transfered to the table games supervisor (or someone with a similar title) or ask for a casino host.
Ask what the specific rules are or number of games that they have.

You can also search this website for information on certain casinos. For example, a search for Niagra Falls brings up several useful threads including this one:

You can also search for a specific casino name if you want something more specific.

Except hard 18 vs. A at true counts of -33 or lower.

Not sure what you mean, I gave you some info on Niagara Ontartio here:

http://www.blackjackinfo.com/bb/show...t=11096&page=2


If you mean rules, they should both be S17, DOA, DAS, NS, Dealer peeks.

Anything else, I'll try to help.
I think there's also a casino in Toronto during CNE, but the rules may suck.
