In ENHC games the procedure is if all player hands bust then the dealers single card goes into the discard tray. The only exception to this is if the dealer has an ace and there is an insurance wager, then a second card will be dealt. If the only non-busted hands of players are naturals and the...

Your best chance at doubling your money is put it all on one hand, and cross your fingers. Good luck.

I have never heard of this before, it sounds very interesting. With 5 decks there are only 20 aces and you need two of them to get paid 2:1. This will happen something like 1:177 times off the top of the shoe (if my math is correct). Some things stand out to me: Getting two aces is much...

I don't think your math is correct. Even if it was, what would it say? What has busting got to do with win percentages? If you don't bust, it doesn't mean you win. Also, are you aware of what the house edges are with basic strategy? They are smaller than what you are talking about. I...

The OP said ENHC, which means that all double and split bets lose to a dealer natural. The other rules with no hole card are OBBO (original and busted bets only) and BB+1 (busted bets + 1). OBBO means you lose one bet per bet plus any busted bet, and BB+1 means you lose one bet per box plus...

One huge bet then 499 tiny ones. Repeat. Of course, they may not let you, and even if they do, they wouldn't let you do this twice. Do you have more details, do the bets have to be the same size, does a certain average need to be maintained, what games etc?

Some casinos in Europe do mix them together, thats what this thread is about.

I was just thinking, this could be a great thing to shuffle track or sequence too.

This is a great promotion for solo and team play. I say hammer it while its available.

This is just speculation, but here is my take on these games. There could be a greater advantage gained by counting each of the coloured decks separately, but it would be very difficult to do and custom playing and betting strategies would be required to take advantage of the information...

This could be taken as sensitive info, but I was wondering if anyone knew standard shuffles for any australian casinos. If you feel like sharing and could PM me it would be much appreciated!

Have any math to back that up? Giving advice on things like this based on your intuition is a really bad idea.

I did a combinatorial analysis for a similar option in SP21 in this thread http://www.blackjackinfo.com/bb/showthread.php?t=14728&page=2 Luckily, i still had the spreadsheet and modified it for your situation. The only relevant assumptions were that the dealer stands on all 17s and that...

So you use the coupon and you just keep playing until you get a 12? Interesting coupon. I would probably pull it out in a high count if you can, you are more likely to be facing a high dealer upcard and have a larger bet out. It sounds like when to play the coupon is somewhat out of your control...

I am not very familiar with coupons like this. How does it work, you play it before the hand, or after you get a 12? The MP coupons sound really great!
