the house edge is .77% . i believe it could be beat but i wouldn't consider it a desireable six deck game compared to other relatively common six deck games.
see link to determine basic strategy and house edge for the game.

Yeah, it's a pretty marginal game. You would have to spread at least 1-15, if not more. OR you would have to wong in to make this game worth playing. I would suggest aggressive wonging.

That's a tough one to beat with straight counting. It can be done, but it won't be easy and the swings will be extra-large.  Unless you can find better pen or use some sort of tracking it will be a tough battle.

Worth playing?
At my local casino, I play double deck, S17, DAS, DOA, RSA, No SUR. The penetration is 50%. I am allowed to play up to three spots with no premium.
Is this a decent game?

Unless BJs pay 2:1 (or more) there is no such thing as a decent game with 50% penetration. The game above has good rules but with such shallow penetration you will not see many high counts and will be "bleeding" many small bets in the meantime. You can certainly make money from this game but the variance will be high and the small EV won't leave much room for cover. If you can get deeper pen this could become a great game.
