European Rules

Ken, in your chart for the ENHC game you recommend splitting Aces against the dealer 10 card. Shouldn't I hit instead. I will lose 2 bets when the dealer gets B.J. instead of losing 1 bet.

(A,A)vT should still be split. When playing European No Hole Card rules, don't double or split anything against a dealer Ten or Ace... Except, still split Aces against a ten.

Basically, with the ten up, there's roughly a 1/13 chance of the dealer having blackjack. Splitting Aces is a strong enough play to make this worth the risk of losing both bets to a dealer blackjack.
