Don,
I hope you can help me. I found a unique game (not in the US) with the following characteristics.
6 decks; no DAS; DOA; insurance; early surrender on a ten; late surrender on anything else; an ace under a ten takes all splits and doubles.
The surrenders overide all the I18 hit and stand indices other than the 12s and 13s. So I am looking for more useful indices - particularly 13 against a ten and 12 against a 10 to see if these are +5 or less due to the early surrender.
I am playing hi-lo.
Interesting note: Normal penetration for this game is down to one deck and if you are nice even less (ie typically 85% pen or better). The min/max bet allows a 1-30 spread with the max bet approx $240.
Even more unbelieveable: No pit crew at all. Jusy beautiful lady dealers who haven't a clue about the game other than how to deal. Therefore zero heat no matter how you jump your bets.
The players are not Americans and have no clue how to play, so the game is extremely profitable for the house. Hence the reason for no heat.
Merry Christmas and Thanks in advance, UC
