When to correctly split tens..
.. if you are in a tournament format which rewards large lucky bets, such as blackjacks pay 2-1, and I am a table full of superstituous idiots, I will split my TT four ways and PRAY that the dealer makes a hand.
The idea being is, that for this minimal expense, the superstituous dummies immediately drop their bets for the rest of the shoe, leaving you MUCH more prepared to bet with/against them in later rounds.
I'm dead serious here. Make sure that when you "take the dealer's bust card" and the dealer gets 21 instead of busting, you point out how you "only did it do screw up the shoe on purpose".
