"Single 21" at Bally's Tunica

[techster]

Bally's in Tunica is offering a game they call "Single 21." It has many attractive features, including:

Single Deck
Double on any number of cards (double a 3-card eleven!)
Surrender anytime, except against dealer BJ. Even surrender after hitting and doubling.
Split up to four hands.
Split after hitting (split anytime two of the same cards are touching)
Player always wins blackjack
Player wins with 6 cards without busting

The drawback? Blackjack pays even money, except suited blackjacks which pay 3:2.

Anyone have any opinions on this game? Is there any way to calculate the house edge, or how the count affects play?

Wizzard of Odds has a lot of information about how to judge the game you are playing. http://wizardofodds.com/blackjack. The game you describe seems to have a lot of favorable advantages. Do they take any cards out of the deck (like 10's)???

"SuperFun 21"

The game is generically called "SuperFun 21" and its a terrible game... ALMOST as bad as 6/5 1D. It can be beaten BUT it requires a bigger spread/BR and a strategy that is markedly different from regBJ and more complex. zg
