Nightclub rules

We have a state-run BJ table in most of the decent night clubs and those tables has a rule that if player and dealer ties, the dealer wins. How much does this cut down the EV? Can you say without mathematics and simulations how should I modify the strategy for this rule? I play at these tables with minimal bets and only to socialize, to memorize the strategy and to practice counting, and with basic strategy have kept my losings in control.
It's 6 decks, stand on 17, no resplitting, no doubling after split, double only 10/11, no CSM, dealer peeks for BJ.

Wow. Hard 16 stands against dealer's 8,9,10.

I did not even search wizard's for this, because I thought this is only local abnormality in rules. Seems somewhere else in the world they have the same thing with BJ tables.
