Bored at work so instead of working, thought I'd get some conversation started on game quality...
All of us would happily play a S17 DAS LS game with 90% penetration, and we would all avoid a H17 shoe game with 50% penetration. The reality is that most games fall in the middle of these games and unless you live in Vegas, you are most of the time limited by games in your area.
So what are YOUR requirements for a game? Let's hear what you need in order to sitdown. % penetration? Number of players at the table? H17/S17? Some examples to get you started, but feel free to add your own.
Would you play:
1) 6D H17 DAS - 4.5/6 penetration - 0-2 other players
2) 6D H17 DAS - 5/6 penetration - full table
3) DD S17 LS - Double 10 and 11 only, no splitting aces - 1.5/2 penetration - 0-2 other players
4) DD H17 DAS - 1/2 penetration - 0-2 other players
5) DD S17 DAS LS - 1/2 penetration - full table
Feel free to add single deck rules if you like. I don't have any single deck games available so have no experience in that realm.
Let's hear what YOU want to play!
EDIT: I'm thinking this is for a play-all or at least play-most scenario. Obviously you can play some pretty terrible games if that's all that is available in your area and you are willing to only play positive counts.
