On my trip a week ago, I was looking for BJ switch in LV and could not find it anywhere. In an earlier thread, this was discussed and the inventor appears to have busted his post on the locations of the game. I looked at the places I recall he mentioned and found none.....anyone seen it?

BJ Switch *LINK*

Sorry Carolina

I busted the post because I suppose I don't want too many advantage players going to just 1 or 2 places, in its early days, and hurting the win % of the game.

It's very hard to get casinos to accept this new version of Blackjack due to it's low edge (albeit for correct 'switching').

I could have installed the higher edge version into The 4 Queens but I chose not to. I'm trying to introduce a new Blackjack variation that is not only fun to play but offers a low house edge to the good players. If it gets installed in numerous casinos, after a while, then it will be able to stand up to 'hits' from AP's.

Incidentally, I will be in Las Vegas next week installing BJ Switch into one of the 'Strip' casinos.

Best regards

Geoff

You misquote me

I never said "no carnival games" -- in fact, I said there are opportunities everywhere. "Voodoo" and "carnival" are different concepts.

Carnival games are just games. If you figure out ways of beating them that are based on valid applications of probability theory, involving techniques like counting, shuffle tracking, or hole-card play, then you are on the right path to winning, no matter what the card game.

If you think you can beat games using voodoo method, like stop-loss, progressions, timing or intuition, then please go to (Dead link: http://www.johnpatrick.com) _www.johnpatrick.com_, there is no place for you here.

No apology needed Geoff! I just missed the spots where the game was. Good luck with the game!

Not impossible for me!

Oh I love that game. Low house advantage (0.2%), low standard deviation, and low heat simply because it is a "carnival game". If that game ever becomes available around here I will treat it like a football team treats a drunken cheerleader. (Sorry Geoff!)

ugh...

I went to that web site to look around (I was looking at posts near the bottom here and found your link to the patrick site). God, what a mess... I particularly like his idea of surrendering almost all stiff hands, and even 17, against the dealers 10-up. :)

When he was born, did the pediatrician drop him on his head as he held him upside to pop him on the butt and get him to breathing? :)
