BlackJack

[Prawnz Perdinand]

No, I'm not talking about Jables - or BlaJes. Do you play blackjack online?

[Jables]

Now here's a topic I can enjoy!

I don't play online, but I'd meet up with fellow posters at Foxwoods any time!

I actually dreamed last night that I was playing blackjack. Badly. And losing a lot of money. I don't gamble, rarely play cards at all, and have never gambled on blackjack in my life. No idea where that came from.

Hey now, I made you that offer for The Sun that one time and you declined it. I'll be heading there on Monday if you'd be interested in meetin' me and another common fellow RF poster.

By the way, your card is for a table where the dealer hits on soft 17.... but I'm pretty sure Foxwoods (and I know Mohegan) hits on that. For shame!!!

I only declined because I highly suspected (and correctly so) that my boss would keep me late... That and I definitely know my way around Foxwoods much better than Mohegan. Who else is going? What time? Foxwoods or Mohegan?

Oops, I just grabbed the biggest image of one I could find. Also Foxwoods definitely stands on all 17's, I checked their website to be sure (all the more reason to hit up Foxwoods over Mohegan!)

Ohhhhhh snap!, I'm dumb. Mohegan stands on 17 too, I must've had some green crap in my brain.

Other fellow RF poster (not sure if I should "out" him.. as in, out him, in the being gay sense) said he's not sure, since he might have a date this weekend and then he'll need to catch up with stuff on Monday. But he won't have a date, I'm sure of that. Anyway, I'll let ya know what goes downnn.

I probably should have reported on this in the last big BlackJack thread we had on the RF, but last time I was at AC, I suddenly saw all three casinos I played at allowed splitting to up to 3 piles (for non A's), a change from the previous time I was there. I am hoping that next time I show up, I will suddenly notice that Surrender is once more allowed. IPTF- what are the foxwood/mohegin rules, aside from standing on soft 17? resplitting? surrender? DD after split?

I'm only familiar with Mohegan Sun, but I think they're the same on all blackjack rules. They are very, very generous. For the Sun at least...

* Dealer stands on soft 17
* Resplit as many times as you want (non A's only of course)
* Surrender allowed
* DD after split allowed
