I don’t know why blackjack tournaments never were a big part of marketing in NJ, but they are more rare in that part of the country.
Are you asking about a rule that pays you for having 5 cards and not busting? This kind of “5-card Charlie” rule would be unusual to find in a casino as it adds well over 1% for the player. 6-card and 7-card automatic wins are found sometimes, though they are far less valuable.
The free Windows software at this site will analyze these rules for you, including optimal strategy and the effect on the game.

The 6:5 was very sneaky by the casinos. Slowly but surely, it is catching on like wildfire and why not, it is saving casinos thousands. Sure for the average gambler it doesn’t sound like a lot, but it adds up…quickly. Also if the dealer has an Ace up and you have a natural blackjack, no more even money. Even the dealers hate the rules as it normally decreases their odds of a better tip. This is just another attempt to water down and make a circus game of Blackjack. Spanish BJ, dealer cards delt face up, single deck with multiple rules. I agree…talk to the pitboss or floor manager and at a minimum, the dealer. Bottom line…have fun, but don’t give the money back to the casino because they have decided to manipulate the rules in their favor!
I’m not sure of the specific spot where I discouraged play at less than 75% penetration, but it really depends on the other rules. In six and eight deck games, it’s tough to get much of an edge at less than 75% penetration, and most players would consider that the borderline between games worth playing and not worth playing. In double-deck on the other hand, 75% is a great game. In fact, I’ve played lots of 50-60% penetration double deck over the years.
Dealer Stands on Soft 17;
Double any card;
Double after split Ok;
Later Surrender;
Ofter insurance on dealer Ace;
8 Decks;
penetration 75%;
I can stay out , counting to enter the game at any time;
Tables from 5 to 500; 10 to 1.000; 25 to 3.000; 100 to 10.000;
Your advantage is going to heavily depend on your bet spread, and the bet ramp. Two recommendations: CVData software, to accurately sim any game and counting system, or the book Blackjack Attack for a ton of pre-figured stats on many games.
If they’re giving you $2000 to show up, you should certainly take that, unless it means playing at substantially higher stakes than usual, or for longer hours.
Which table? What betting? Those questions are going to depend on your edge and how willing you are to play with an advantage for these long periods. See my other reply for advice on software or books to answer those questions.
Another option which might be nice for the next version: the ability to re-play the same shoe (i.e., same cards come out again). I sometimes wish I could re-play a shoe with a different betting strategy just to see how it would come out, be nice to be able to re-play the same shoe again (I’d be fine with resetting my chip stack to what I had at the beginning of the shoe when re-playing too).
By far the easiest way to get definitive answers for these kinds of questions is to use sim results. Although I understand that it is expensive ($160) when you’re trying to build a bankroll, I think the CVData software from Qfit.com is a wise investment.

I am looking for information on 5 cards and under. Is there a rule that applies to this?

Ken, you say that penetration menorr that 75% do not pay.
You can explain?

Hello and thanks,
after this explanation I understand that the 76% should be taken as a not changing fixed percentage.
Also Thanks for the explanation of the 1/4 with is interesting for me in EU as well.

How to calculate my advantage as HI LO counter?

เคน,
Will improve the question.
I have 20k and the casino still me the 10% commission on the deposit , plus expenses , since I play a minimum of 24 hours with media $ 200 bets .
Which table I sit ?
That betting should I do?
Should I worry about the commission ?
If they’re giving you $2000 to show up, you should certainly take that, unless it means playing at substantially higher stakes than usual, or for longer hours.

Can you recommend software for a MAC computer for Blackjack card counting?
Not really. The last time this subject came up on the forum, it ended up being mostly a discussion of how to run Windows software on the Mac.

I’m not sure why there has never been a good blackjack alternative native to the Mac.
คุณสามารถเป็นผู้ชนะได้ทุกครั้งหากคุณแค่ไปชมความบันเทิงฟรีหรือเชียร์เพื่อน การไม่ได้เล่นก็ถือเป็นชัยชนะ เช่นเดียวกับการถูกผลักไม่ใช่ความรู้สึกแย่

สวัสดีครับ ผมเป็นแฟนตัวยงของการยอมแพ้ แต่ช่วงนี้ผมคิดอยู่ว่า... ถ้าผมมีไพ่ 16 แต้มและเจ้ามือมี 10 แต้ม และโอกาสที่ผมจะแพ้คือ 53.71% แล้ว... ถ้าผมเล่นแบบนี้ทุกตาและทำแบบนี้ 3 ครั้ง ผมจะได้ผลลัพธ์ประมาณ 1% ของ 53.71% คูณด้วย 150 ครับตอนนี้ถ้าฉันชนะ 1 ใน 3 มือ (33.3%) ฉันจะได้ $200... ดังนั้นฉันจะได้กำไร $50 เมื่อเทียบกับการยอมแพ้ ($150) กระบวนการคิดของฉันผิดพลาดตรงไหน? กรุณาช่วยด้วย.
ขอบคุณ
As long as the live games are dealt to a decent depth, the same methods are applicable.
And in Online Live Casinos? How does it work?
I am not ready to go to a real casino.
