Enhc
I'd be happy to incorporate an ENHC rule option. I have never played in such a game, though. So I have a question:
My understanding of the rule is that the dealer receives no hole card, so he can't check for blackjack. As a result, if you split once and lose both hands, then you lose two bets. (Alternatively, if the split hand pushes, then having no hole card is no different than having a hole card.) Then there is the option of early surrender, which is not always available.
Which is most common: ENHC rule with early surrender option or ENHC rule without early surrender option?
Am I missing any other important piece of the rule?

Your understanding of the 'No hole card' rule is correct. Since the dealer doesn't check for a BJ, any doubles or splits made by the player will be lost in event of dealer having a BJ.
Other common rules in European games include:
4-6D Shoes (Almost exclusively)
S17
No splitting of 4's, 5's or 10's (Common) / SA
Double on hard 9,10,11 ONLY (No double on soft hands)/ DOA (Becoming commoner)
RSA
NSA
DAS
*No Surrender
*Can only take insurance against a dealer Ace if player has a Natural (BJ)
70% Pen
HE 0.46%-0.55% (Per unit wager)
Here is the basic strategy for the two most common rules:

The current version of the game deals to 70% penetration. I am considering adding options to change the penetration percentage. Would that be useful?
Also, I'm not sure why the game does not work for you, but maybe I can help:
1) Are you using a PC (Windows) or a Mac
2) What browser are you using?
3) What version of the browswer are you using?
Or take a look at http://www.javatester.org/ to troubleshoot the problem.

Great site. I really love that I can play certain types of hands and practice counting as well.
I think I ran into the same thing that Eternal did. When playing in the "difficult" setting, I routinely get an incorrect when I hit a three card sixteen. It will say that the proper play is to hit (which is what I did) or to surrender (which I can't do on three cards.)
Thanks for the site, and thanks to Ken for posting it.

You need to put in more display room for "chipstack" and the amount bet. It hides part of my $10,000,000,000.00 bets and results. :grin:
Or as an alternative you could set some lower table limits.
I also noticed it let me bet more than what I had on hand, split when I didn't have the money to do so, etc. I didn't see a buy in feature, not that it's needed for BS training purposes, but if that's by design why even display bet size and chipstack size at all?
