While there are several rules in plain sight on the Felt (BJ Pays 3:2, H17/S17, Ins pays, etc), there are many *MANY* which are not that highly dictate how beatable a given game is viz. one's edge.
When it comes to selecting a table to sit down at, and in consideration of those rules which are not displayed, rather than badger the dealer with questions like, "Is Surrender available? Can I double on any 2 cards? How many times can I split? Do you allow splitting of aces? etc etc etc" is there a better way to find out what the full rules are at any given table?
I like the recommendation of calling casinos up and asking what their rules are. Makes sense. But obviously when you're on the go hitting more than one casino (e.g. on the strip) this isn't as feasible.
In my experience the placards showing table minimums/limits never display the full rules, and short of asking dealers or bosses I've not found a good way to easily/passively obtain this info. Suggestions?
