Could you elaborate a bit more about "depending on what the effect of partial surrender is."? Thanks.

Wynn has just opened a new casino in Macau. The BJ rules are as follows: - 4 decks - dealer hits soft 17 - double on any 2 cards - resplit to 4 hands (includes ace, but draws only 1 card) - double after split not allowed - no hole card - surrender except dealer ace Does Wynn Las Vegas...

I found several people playing this way. They sit at the first base. They always bet with table minimum. But once in a while they bet to the table maximum. Then the first card drawn to them is an ACE! And always it's an ace of CLUB! Sounds unbelievable! Have someone ever heard of that? Sometimes...

In the casino that I used to play, the bet for double down can be less than the original bet (but at least the table minimum). And you are allowed to top it up to the original bet. Should I do that? Is it a valuable bet? Under what condition should it be a valuable bet?

Got it. Thanks a lot.

I lose all bets if dealer is blackjack. Such games with no-hole-card rule and offering surrender are available in Macau.

Just want to know if the dealer doesn't deal a hole card, and offers surrender (except an ace), is this called early surrender?
