oh, in that case you should have pushed the flop instead of trying to slowplay.

he didn't take a screenshot. he's using photoshop to try to trick you.

it's obvious that can't be a real hand because you're supposed to have 48/52 against party poker blackjack and how can you ever win if they keep rivering 10's against your pocket jacks.

"el diablo" is mexican for "the devil" and that's why he's trying to trick you because he's the devil.

Never understood that basic strategy myself. Seems better to split vs 5-6 and double down on both but I guess people have run countless of simulations. Anybody know how my EV changes if I split and double?
