Default Re: Optimal Blackjack strategy ??

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE do not play blackjack online. Most - if not all - programs are programmed to cheat you. This is not speculation on my part. I have statistically analyzed log files and proven conclusively that you do not get a fair deal. Most likely way of cheating is for dealer to "try again" when he gets a card that would bust him. I can't be any more specific because I am not privy to the source code or their providers. But I am a very good blackjack player. I play basic strategy perfectly - and I do know how to modify according to the rules offered. I am also a reasonably proficient number cruncher, able to figure the number of standard deviations away from the expected value that a particular set of results was. Please trust me on this. You do not get a fair game of blackjack online. (Maybe there are some fair and some not, but definitely some - and I strongly think most - will not deal a fair game).
