BJ in the Islands

[Count Luckula]

I'm planning a trip to Aruba in a few weeks, and even though it's mainly for surf, sand and sun, it wouldn't hurt to play a little and hopefully pay for the trip.

I'm wondering if anybody has played there recently and/or has info on any good games there, and also what to expect in terms of rules, minimums, heat, comps, etc.

Thanks.

I cannot speak for Aruba, but Ive been around other caribbean islands.

From what I've seen in other islands, the rules would make you laugh.
6 deck shoes or more. Cut card about half way through. One card to
the dealer so no peaks, all monies doubled and split will lose to a
dealer's natural. If you can find an advantage among this environment
the rest of the rules are fairly liberal. Dealers stand on all 17s,
you can resplit and double whenever. Bet ranges are quite wide because of
a lack of tables. Good possibility the staff has never seen a counter,
probably because a counter would not play.

Like I said, never been to Aruba, but this seems to be what Ive found
in every 3rd world where there is no competition across the street.
Enjoy the sun, surf and sand. Everyone I know who has been to Aruba
loved it.
