When you split, each hand is treated as a separate hand, and played like any regular hand. The outcome of one hand does not affect the other. Most casinos allow you to split up to four times (like if you split 8s and get another 8, split again.)
If you've got good rules going, you can double your hand after your split.
Usually if you split aces, you only get one new card on each hand. It's not a good rule if you're not allowed to re-split aces.
Hope this helps. Happy playing.

HUH? All station casinos allow RSA on shoes as does MGM/Mirage casinos. Harrah's casinos and Boyd/Coast generally don't allow RSA. Nationally I'd say that about 40% of casinos allow Resplit-Aces and 60% don't. Most casinos don't allow it on pitch games..and RSA doesn't really help much on those anyway. It's a very customer friendly rule that doesn't really cost the casino much to the typical player but players really like it. That explains why Harrah's and Coast casinos usually don't offer it....they could care less about keeping their customers happy.
I generally have my fill of shoe games in AC, so when I am in Vegas I play almost exclusively Double Deck games where I have not yet seen Resplit Aces. The exception to playing only Double Deck is Planet Hollywood, where I have often stayed, and where recently their Double Deck games have gone to ugh! 50% pen. I find their surrender rule very appealing even if it means playing shoe games. But thanks, I never realized that Station and MGM casinos offered Resplit-Aces in their shoe games.
MGM's best profits are from Macau and soon from Singapore, etc.
The N J C C (N.J.Casino Control Commission) will not allow MGM to be involved in A.C. casino ownership because of their close ties to the Chinese Triads (organized crime) through their "Godfather" — Stanley Ho (and his daughter) Pansy Ho.
