Which game will you play with a gun to your head?

#1
Hi,I am fairly new to blackjack but know BS.
Tried searching for a House Edge Calculator but cannot find one which
is specific to the BJ games I have access to.
Can someone help me with this?

fyi,both games use CSM and I know Gurus here won't
touch these games so I have to resort to using threat.:grin::grin:
where i am from got no shoe games.

Casino A:
4D
Dealer Stands on Soft 17
Double 9,10,11 Only
Double Down After Split Allowed
Resplit any cards to 3 hands including Aces(Aces can draw 1 card only)***
Early Surrender but not against A
No Hole card (Dealer BJ wins all)
House Edge???



Casino B:
6D
Dealer Stands on Soft 17
Double any 2 Cards
Double Down After Split Allowed
Resplit any cards to 4 hands except Aces split Once only and draw 1 card****
Early Surrender but not against A
No Hole card (Dealer BJ only take original bet)
House Edge???

Take the bullet to the head!

First you don't mention how many cards go into the discard rack before being inserted back into the csm. Second save yourself alot of aggravation and save up your money and travel to better games. The more people who play garbage the more it's going to stay so don't help stores who offer junk games.

Remember I have a gun pointing at your head.:whip:
Pls answer so I dont have to pull the trigger.:grin:
I am only playing for leisure so dont want to incur cost
and time to travel.
They put cards back to CSM after player bust or get BJ.
Please indulge me or I have to shoot you then myself.:laugh:

I'm not understanding the difference between early and late surrender. In the US, we have late surrender. We can surrender On the first 2 cards dealt to us. If there is an ace up, we can surrender after the dealer has checked for a blackjack. I assumed that early surrender meant you can take surrender BEFORE the dealer checks for blackjack. Yes? No?

No hole card=Dealer only holding 1 card
If all players surrender,Dealer dont even take a 2nd card.
No surrender against A.

I agree with SystemsTrader about Casino B, but for Casino A I get 0.42%.
Casino A =0.43%
Casino B =0.16%

Difference =0.26%

Example:If I play Game A & Game B simultaneously for 3hrs using BS
each bet $25 x 100 hands per hr x 3hrs = $7500 x 0.26%=$19.50

I will lose additional $19.50 on top of Casino B's 0.26% in those 3 hrs.
