Can someone give me a rundown of the blackjack opportunities outside of the United States. From what I understand, most of the games in Europe are very poor (6 decks, poor penetration, no hole card rule). I looked into Australia and wasn't much impressed either. Is there anything better out there, maybe in Russia or the far East? If so, what is the heat like and what is the law regarding counting? Is there a greater risk of getting roughed up by casino management (I have been backed off in the U.S. but never threatened)?
