The simulation games I have played and what seems to be the standard dealer routine goes like this. Dealer deals one card to each player them one upcard to himself, dealer then deals a second card to players and one downcard to himself, then players play their hand.
My question is what are the consequences when the dealer does not give himself the second downcard until all players hands are played. i.e when you are playing your hand the dealers only has one upcard on the table then draws his second card once your done.
Im thinking this would not be of much concern if your table is empty, which is rare luxury in the lower limit tables. But lets say you have a full table (7 players) and you're keeping a running/total count. If its a favourable count at the start of betting, once all the players cards are dealt the count has the chance to swing back before the dealers second card is taken making your starting advantage useless.
If this is the situation my thinking is you would need to wait for a even more favourable count before incresing units to reduce to chance of a late swing.
