More importantly......a +9 running count (hi-lo). Lol. And no aces used to get that 7 card 21, which is unusual. Usually 7 card hands eat up an ace or two.

Deal me in! :)

How deep was the shoe at that point? Lol
10 eyes for an eye. 10 teeth for a tooth. 10 bucks for a buck?! Hit the bad guys where it hurts the most: the face and the wallet.

About 5 hands in of a 6D shoe and I was the only player at the table.


The first hand was:

7,7 v. dealer 7
split to 7,7,7
hands became: 7,10; 7,6,K (bust); 7,9,Q (bust)
Dealer had 7, Ace

second hand was dealer BJ


That is all I remember….

I believe from the photo it could not be proved that it wasn't a one deck game.

Since it was 6d, I guess ten 2s and one Ace could happen and make an 11 card 21. Hadn't thought about it.

I think I saw the following on one of the Wizard's sites and made a note of it: 7 cards totaling 21 or less is 1 in 4,600 hands. 8 cards is 1 in 79,000. 9 cards is 1 in 2,200,000. 10 cards is 1 in 100,000,000.

Couldn't have been a single deck game.....two, 2 of spades.

As for second comment, what kind of rules are you playing where after nines 2's appear, the dealer hits his hard 18? lol.

I think an 11 card hand would need to consist of six two's, followed by 4 aces (in that exact order) and then the 11th card anything from ace through 5. Can anyone think of any other scenario?

Dealer could get fired for hitting his 19..

Most cards dealer could have in a 21 is: A A A A A A 6 A A A A 5.. In that order

While there is none that I know of, isn't it possible to deal a single deck game from a shoe? El Cortez deals a double deck game from a shoe. :)

You could actually get 1 more card out of that if you allow hit on soft 17. Just put an extra A before 6 gives you S17 then hit and get 5 then repeat exactly what you wrote. But yeah I want to see that dealt one day.

Because the dealer had a 7 showing (the 6 above the 7 was the card dealt down - this dealer flips it that way)

Ok, right. But since there are few s17 games left, you could get an extra A in there at the front, to make soft 17, then 5, then 4 more aces, before the final card of ace through 5 to make a 13 card total.

You could also get hit by lightning, WHILE collecting your 100 million lotto winnings. lol.

Yeah the sequence of cards is basically impossible I'll admit but would still seem awesome. I mean a 13 card 21.

The longest 21 I've seen a player make is 8 cards long, and she hit hard 18 to get there.

I'm looking at the tray in the picture. Was this a $25 min table? $100 min? Looks like only one tube of whites and one tube of reds. Two tubes of green?
