Yeah, my strategy card has split. I don’t play enough blackjack to win without a card.

Seriously, I’m pretty sure two hands at would be ugly in sTalk.

You’d have to have options like:

Hit on both hands.

Hit on hand 1, stay on hand 2

Stay on hard 1, hit on hand 2

Stay on both hands.

More if doubling is allowed after splitting. I never was sure about the rule for that.

And I’m betting it’d be more messy than that in the DSL trout wrote.

Or you could play the hands sequentially. Which would probably work fine. Disregard my entire post.

I’m pretty sure when you split, you play one hand and then the other. Not a big deal.

It would make the odds too favorable for the player (read: not enough of a Flezz sink)

But the odds on Rock Paper Scissors are 50-50.

Oh, no 1000 flezz bet means no antifreeze scoops.

Oh, it would not. Even if the game had split or five-card charlies for god’s sake, absolutely solid perfect basic strategy still only gets house advantage down to 1%, doesn’t eliminate or reverse it. You can’t card count in a game where the deck isn’t even real. Besides, if it’s that much of an issue, they could always just make it cheat.

Best I can figure without googling it, this is because a player bust is a loss even if the dealer busts. Right?
