Seven card Charlie

[picasso]

The Casino where I play has the 7 card Charlie rule: get seven cards, don’t bust and your a winner.

Now, say you have a total of 16 with 6 cards against a 10, would you hit?
Of course, you would with (multi-deck game)

6-2-2-2-2-2
6-3-2-2-2-A
6-6-A-A-A-A

But with every other combinations normally you would stand, for example:

6-4-2-2-A-A = stand

But if you hit, even if you get an ace for a total of 17 (which normally wouldn't be too good against a 10) your a winner! (chicken dinner :¬)

So, back to the original question: do you hit a six cards total of 16 against a 10 with the seven card Charlie rule?

I never counted cards. The point of playing is winning money and that is why I play. If someday, I start loosing money, I will stop playing; and I have been playing a mighty long time (Vegas, Atlantic city, Caribbean, Indian reservations, Cruise ship, many places in Canada, on-line, charity Casinos).

But until then, CHICKEN DINNER!

Awww... Come on Flash, you don't think they would switch the cards up or preferentially shuffle just because it's an online casino do you?

Picasso, Flash is right. Be careful. If you are going to play online have fun and treat it as recreational play!

Good luck!

You prove one of the points that I've been making on this forum about probability, and that I see in the casino, that sometimes people win money regardless of how they play...

Online BJ has the cards computer-shuffled after each hand.
