It has been awhile since I have played BJ. I just downloaded a sample copy of CBJN and found some abbreviations for rules that are new to me.

Could someone explain the following rules abbreviations:

nm
nmm
sc

At first, I didn't understand "csm" either but finally realized that it meant "Continuous Shuffle Machine."

Thanks for your help on the above abbreviations.

It's strange that you have the issue but didn't see the "Key to Rules" on page 63, which explains all the abbreviations. Anyway, ...

nm No mid-game entry.
nmm No mid-game entry and no mid-game spreading to multiple hands.
sc Card used to determine shuffle point on one or two decks.

Thanks, Don.

I scrolled down the PDF until I found the "Notes for Lists of Casinos" on page 2. It defined the abbreviations at the top of the lists, such as "edge," "cut," "min," "max," and "rules." I then scrolled down to the page for the casinos for which I was interested. That's when I noticed the abbreviations that I didn't recognize and that were not on page 2. I made a hasty assumption that the abbreviations were explained on page 2 and that they wouldn't put another rules key at the end of the PDF.

BTW, my sample copy of CBJN lists the "Key to Rules" starting on page 73, not 63.

I've been out of BJ since 2007. The games have certainly deteriorated in quality since then.

It's good to see you are still on the forum giving your professional advice to those in need, Don. I do miss AdvantagePlayer.com.
