BJ surrender- any disadvantage?

chesterp · #1 04-25-2005, 02:58 PM

seems all other rules are the same (about to do bet365), so as long as you're following the chart, there's no reason to play regular bj, right? or am i missing some casino advantage?

Why wouldn't you play BJ Switch?

well, quickly looked at switch rules and obviously- more complicated (extra time/charts), and saw on wizardofodds (i think) that it's still around 5% if no queens. about the same as normal BJ. so freakin- was i right about the advantage to surrender over normal? thanks

surrender is better than normal.
what are you saying.....no queens??

i thought switch was best except for the time to read the chart every 3 hands

i could be wrong, but i thought i saw that it's still around .5% unless queens version (wherever that is played) which takes it down to .1%
i'll just do surrender

The house advantage for Playtech (the software casino365 uses) BJ switch is .05%. You get .1% cashback, so you actually have a small edge playing it. It is slow, though.
