Blackjack switch now in the UK

[FLASH1296]

Anyone looking to play BJ Switch must review the excellent chapter
on the game in "The Big Book of Blackjack" by Arnold Snyder.

Here is a link where you can get it for a measly $8

Cheaper than going to the movies, etc. List Price is $18.

Does anyone know of software that can run BJ switch simulations ?

There is none at this moment available to the public. Hopefully Qfit will have it for the next release of CVData. Qfit?

Looking for an answer

In CBJN the e.v. for the H17 Six deck Switch game is listed as 0.16%

On the WOO Mike S. presents the e.v. as 0.58%.

I assume that the former is a reflection of "perfect play" and the latter is an estimate for Basic Strategy play.

This radical difference concerns me.

Can someone please enlighten me on this issue.

Different rules?

I don't know the details of what is specified in CBJN, but I notice that the WOO quotes both those figures, among others, as possible house edges-

0.58% normally, and 0.16% if switching to a BJ counts as a BJ, rather than just 21.
