Just been bouncing a few Pm's to Switch, and it compelled me to give the game a blast on paddypower.

But I think it made an error.



I think it should of stood on the hard 17 after hitting the soft 17 and getting a 10.
What do you think?

It does look like a programming error. The apparent conclusion is that the software is erroneously treating any hand with an Ace as a soft hand, even after the Ace has dropped in value from 11 points to 1 point.

Thanks for that Switch practice game. Despite the programming error I'll practice with it.

Yes and for me it just now hit a hard 17 that contained an ace. It turned a hard 17 into 20 by pulling a 3.

I was about to say:
Screen shot! We need a SCREEN SHOT.


LOL. Thanks to the link, it took me about 5 hands to get a buggy screen shot of my own!

And check it out: Dealer hit on 16, drew and Ace, and hit again!

This is rather surprising (that it hasn't been caught before).

Playtech has had this game since before they stopped catering to U.S. players. I wonder if they re-wrote it from scratch and inadvertently introduced this error.

I'm surprised that this type of error has come up.

I've notified Playtech and hopefully it will be sorted out quickly.

I'm assuming this is the 'Play Money' version ??

I used the version that ChesterDog linked:

I didn't see an option for real money. Then again I wasn't looking...
