Thanks for the help in advance,

What is the house edge stating following rules. I have tried blackjackinfo.com and it granted me actually a slightly advantage instead of the casino using bs. HUH?

deck 4 / Dealer stand soft 17 / double any 2 / Split 1 time / Surrender Early / Split Aces one card only.

Greetings

Yes, be sure you have that right. From BlackjackInfo.com: "The two varieties of surrender, early and late, differ only in the way a dealer blackjack is handled. In an early surrender game, a player may choose to surrender before the dealer checks his cards for a blackjack, offering a cheap way out even if the dealer turns out to have a blackjack. Because this offers a healthy advantage to the player, this version (early surrender) is rarely offered. The much more common variation is late surrender, where the dealer checks for blackjack first, and then only if he does not have blackjack will he allow players to surrender their hands."

He came back the next day but did not post; I assume he checked this thread.
