    Greektown Detroit to be rebranded as JACK. Any locals with more info?

    Thanks for the update. I still get occasional inbox spam from JACK......I can see if anything is mentioned about this acquisition.....While I don't play much,at Greektown, this is terrible news for Detroit IF they plan to implement the same business model as they did in Cleveland. "The Jack" is...

    Michigan trip report

    Can a dealer choose which card is his up card?

    Can a dealer choose which card is his up card?

    Ok. So the verdict is the dealer CAN choose his card....as long,as,he doesnt see it? I feel a seasoned dealer could exploit this to his advantage.

    After searching, I cannot find this answer. Perhaps it's how I'm wording the question or Im over looking,the obvious. My last weekend trip....I watched the dealer deal out each players first cards. He dealt himself one face down of course. After dealing out the second players cards, he deals...

    Does the running count have any value besides calculating true count?

    Greetings, Great website and forum. After recreational playing for a few years, I decided to put my OCD to good use and become a student of AP, specifically the HI LOW method. When using a basic HL counting method.....does running count ever have a use beyond finding TC? It just seems like it...
