surrender

Hi,
I have never played a game with the surrender option and, at the risk of embarrassing myself, I would like to know if I should be using it when playing with Wong Halves and indices? It isn't published in Professional Blackjack in the indices. Thanks for you help.

Stumped,

Thanks for your post. I have been thinking about learning Stanford Wongs counting system. I just use hilo count. I figure indices are the same regardless. If wrong , I welcome comments. My 2 regular stores offer late surrender. I take surrender when ever the count calls for it. I've had few regrets so far.

This has become a more brutal game. I use to play in a Atlantic City then all a sudden they started hitting S17. I have not been there in a while. I guess 6/5 BJ will be next. Or is that already the norm as well? I've been pretty lucky with my local stores regarding rules.

I tell my friends, AC is the latrine, LV is the toliet, and Tunica is the out house. Any updates are more than welcome.

Question? Have you played hilo befor, and do you think wong halves would be a good move for an average AP, such as myself?

Thanks & Good Cards, LWC

"It isn't published in Professional Blackjack in the indices."

Of course it is. Table B4, page 285 of the Appendix.

Are the idices different for Wong Halves verses Hilo? Thanks in advance. Don't have Mr. Wongs book yet.

"Are the indices different for Wong Halves versus Hilo?"

They are two different counts and the indices shouldn't be expected to be identical. That said, many are the same and many differ by only one.
