i live and play BJ in the UK. you guys should think yourselves lucky, here you can not split 10's or ace's, thats if you wanted to. Even though there is an insurance box on the baize, you can't play it,( I got free meals for my lady and myself out of more than one casino by playing up about that one!!) you don't get comped any drinks, they play with 4 decks, and the worst thing is that now they are bringing in shuffling machines, after every 4 or 5 hands, the discard cards are placed back in the machine and mixed with the rest, so no counting. Roll on Las Vegas next week
