I warned a few friends about 6:5 blackjack. Even sent them the link to http://www.blackjackinfo.com/no6to5.php. They played 6:5 single deck blackjack anyway.
Why single deck 6:5 blackjack will last forever.

I'm not sure. One time I was at a casino playing DD, and there was this seemingly intelligent guy I was talking to next to me. He told me he was considering going over to play a 6:5 SD game, and I told him no don't do that, explained exactly why, and he seemed to understand.
I got up to go to the bathroom, came back, and there he is sitting at the 6:5 table with a wide-eyed grin. We AP's are a rare breed, don't ever assume a muggle can or will understand and believe what we tell them.
Some casinos are losing the 6:5 games though. From what I see they don't attract high rollers at all. They'd probably be better off with a bank of slots instead of the 6:5 game but that doesn't help us either. I fear the spread of no-risk, no-work slots more than 6:5.

The casino would absolutely be better off with a bank of slots.A .25 slot player is worth much more to the casino than a $5 BJ plyer.
But the player is better off playing 6-5 BJ than most other games the casinos offer.

At what count is it correct to throw away a sure win in order to double down?
I'd imagine it would have to be pretty damed high.
Having only played 6-5 a few times when forced to on local cruises,I'm only guessing but I doubt the PBs worry too much about your spread in these games.If you could get away with a 1-20 spread,perhaps it is a better game than a SD where you can only spread 1-3. Getting a 6-5 BJ with 20 units up sure beats getting a 3-2 with 3 units up.
