DTD best blackjack odds/rules in Nottingham?

[Woodsey]

During a booze fuelled session last night I was informed by one of your very attractive dealers that this was the case, but I'm not gambling expert, is this true?

If so I think you should make more it of it in your promotion as gamblers are nits by nature.

Also my head hurts quite a lot and I don't remember getting home lol

Yes it is on the basis they refund all doubles and splits if the dealer gets blackjack.  Also allow you to surrender against all dealer hands except blackjack to get half your stake back.

Never seen this anywhere except some Vegas hotels.

Hats off, it's a great concession.

Can you double any two? Double after split?

I do not like the surrender thing, but I do believe that the double feature is on 9,10 & 11, similar to free bet blackjack. I wouldn't be too sure if good blackjack players would appreciate the game being played out differently because of the "offers".

'Good' blackjack players shouldn't be bothered by what others at the table do.

Double is on any 2 cards at DTD mate.

Head in hands man required.  Please tell me arron when you post stuff like this it's a wind up and you are levelling everyone and not being serious.  It will save me a lot of time replying to your TFT posts if you are being serious stating stuff like this in the future.

My point basically that I wouldn't personally like to be on a blackjack table that is influenced by offers, such as money back if blackjack. I would HATE to see people doubling 8,9,10, 11 just because they are against an ace etc.

Ok why would you hate that? Because the casino is trying to get people to make bad bets by doubling 8 or 9 against an ace with the incentive of money back if it is black? Or because it will affect the run of cards from the deck in an abnormal way and affect your own hand during play?

[aaron1867]

I wouldn't want the game to be played differently because of an offer. If you have 10 against a picture or an ace, it's a card, not double.

The key to my question is why wouldn't you want the game played differently though? Which of my two examples is the reason why you wouldn't want it played differently? Or maybe you have a different reason of your own.

I've already told you.

I don't want the game played differently, if a table is played like that, then I don't play. Perhaps you are just trying to make an argument for the sake if it? You just don't double any numbers, against tens & aces.

I am not making any argument.  I am just trying to find out what exactly upsets you and stops you playing in a situation where you are better off then if the special offer is not in place when you would seem happy to play.  I take from your answer that you wouldn't like the flow of cards to be different because of the offer as it would affect the cards you get on your hands as opposed to being worried about the likelihood of novice punters being exploited by the offer and doubling in bad spots against an ace on like 8 or 9.

I assume the bolded statement is you being serious and not another level?

[RED-DOG]

Aaron is right. I wouldn't play with people who didn't play properly.

[aaron1867]

I might not be right, don't claim to be either, maybe ArgueBoy think the odds are in our favour, maybe that's the point he's trying to make. Why would you double against such cards that are fantastic for the dealer?
