Re: GENIUS IDEA
without responding to the rest of the sillyness of teddy-fbi's idea:
Blackjack typically breaks-down to something like this (for the non-card-counter)
42% - win
49% - loss
9% - push
It gets to be closer to a -1.5 or 2% disadvantage game for the player because of doubling-down and splitting (presumably when it's +EV...although this isn't always the case for the vast majority of players) and from the 3:2 pay-off on blackjack.
If you really were to bet all of your money on onew hand then you would be losing out on a lot of EV by denying yourself the opportunity to double-down or split when the opportunity were to arrive.
Also: it's not that hard to learn how the basics of counting-cards and make blackjack pretty much a break-even game with minimal effort
(more complicated for certain games including single-deck 6:5-payoff games and the continuous-auto-shuffler games where you're almost always being dealt from the top of the shoe)
