BlackJack Switch

#1
I've been practicing at Bet365 casino, which is playtech I do believe. They have this neat game there called BlackJack Switch, it's got some pretty neat rules there, and some crappy ones, too. Anyone know much about this game, I checked wizardofodds.com and it says the casino only has a .02% advantage. Whether this is true or not is beyond me, anyone else play this game that could tell me more about it?

Funny you should mention it. I've been studying this for quite some time now. Yes, the house edge is less, maybe even a tenth of a percent if you play correctly. And that's even with BJs paying even money and dealer 22s pushing all hands except a natural. To understand the switching strategy and the basic strategy completely (yes it's a little different because of the whole 22 thing) check out blackjackforumonline.com There's an article there that explains the whole thing. It took some time for me to get used to it, but now it's second nature.

Would this game be more profitable than reg. BJ? Obviously not in the long run since they do have the advantage, but with the right betting strategy?
You can read up on it at www.wizardofodds.com It's been a while since I've read about it so I hesitate to say. I've only seen the game once and that was at 4-Queens on Fremont. I'm sure a lot of the Vegas casinos offer it but not the ones I normally play at.

The only way on-line BJ is profitable at all is through the bonuses. You should lose less in the long run playing Switch. But there's really no such thing as the right betting strategy.

Hmmm, maybe I was thinking about Spanish 21.

I haven't seen Switch offered at real casinos but I've heard that it is. Although the rules are slightly different from the on-line version. Spanish 21 has worse odds than Switch or regular BJ.
