Im training to play at my local casino. I went there yesterday to see what rules they have and they are not "regular".
Soo here are the rules:

- 6 decks.
- stand soft 17.
- blackjack pays 3-2.
- double 9-10-11 only.
- split 1 time and cant double after split.
- allowed to surrender but if dealer shows an ace you cant surrender.

What chart should I use for this and, more important than all do I have the advantage if they have good penetration and all?

These are not far from standard BJ. Use this chart:

You will never double soft totals, so hit soft 17 and stand on soft18 where appropriate. The game is surely beatable with good penetration and counting.

Thanks for the reply. It really helped :)

I guess the rules arent that different than "standart blackjack". the thing that i really hate is the fact that you cant surrender if dealer shows an ace :P

Yes it's a pesky rule that, when removed, reduces about 0.4% from the house edge :D

Is there early surrender against a ten?
