Blackjack Quiz - Hard 15 Push
This is probably way too easy for most of you.
Quote: MDawgSomepin happened and the deal had to be mucked?
Nice try. BZZZZT! Wrong, though. Nope, no mucking.
Quote: PokerGrinderYou were playing Free Bet and dealer made 22.
Good try. But wrong. BZZZZZT!
The dealer had 15. Maybe I should have said that. I suck at quizzes.
Quote: PokerGrinderHe just said the dealer had 15 Max.
Had 15 against his 15? Dealer 15 has to hit.
Dealer ended with 15? Now I'm confused.🤔
Quote: MaxPenYou split aces. Won one and lost one.
BZZZZZZT! Wrong. lol

You're getting warmer.
If I have to say the answer, you guys are going to be pissed at me. That's why I'm hoping one of YOU will get it. I bet Billy might get it.
6 cards
Quote: BedWetterBetterDealer probably miscounted, thought they had 18 or 17 and saw your hand was the same & said "Push".
I did stand on 15. Thanks for playing, though.
Quote: bobbartopLast night I played a hand of blackjack where I stood on hard 15, and pushed.
The dealer had 15.
There were cards on the floor totaling 15 that you were literally standing on while simultaneously both playing blackjack and selling illegal drugs to the other players at the table. The dealer had just flipped the hole card revealing a 15 when security tapped you on the shoulder.
Quote: MaxPenDealer ran out of cards and the round was canceled.
I was playing headsup. How many guesses do you get, Max? Should I let you keep trying? Or should I give you a hint?
Here's the hint. "RS was correct". lol

Uh, yeah, that's it, you got it. Winner. lol

You did a fine job, young man.

Says the tricky old man.😀

Oh btw, the dealer's name was G. King.
I'm glad I didn't stand on 14, I would have lost to 15. :-)
So if you are asking a question where the answer falls outside the common rules, or the answer has to do with a blackjack variant rather than traditional blackjack, you should state that up front. Otherwise it is a trick question.
Suppose I say that in a recent baseball game, with a count of 3 balls and 3 strikes a player hit a homerun and ask how that is possible? But I forget to mention that this particular league uses rules where it takes 5 strikes to be an out.
Quote: boywonderI don't think all that much of this question and answer. 6 card Charlie is no longer a standard rule of blackjack. Maybe it once was but not any more. Today if a game has that rule it is a rarity.

Six card Charlie is a very common rule on video blackjack. As there are more VBJ machines in casinos as real ones, it is actually pretty well known. If he were talking about doubling down on a fourth card, I'd agree it was a trick question. This I'd call an attempt at chicanery.

Real life story. Was at a softball game, with bases loaded. Batter hit a ball into the visiting teams bullpen in centerfield, but no man scored. Why?

Because it was a women's softball game.

Did you just assume their gender? :)

This is a gambling forum ,so we should know of the more obscure rules and games available.
If this was a baseball forum and your above rules actually existed I'm sure someone would know the answer

I would guess that there are far more blackjack games in Vegas WITH 6 Card Charlie than without. If you had read the thread you might have noticed I mentioned the dealer's name, G.King. Everyone knows G.King. They're always pushing his buttons.

He said no MAN scored.
I don't think it's legal for the dugout to be in bounds, so nobody in there could catch it for the 3rd out. It should have been a HR or a ground-rule double. If the dugout was behind centerfield, it's in fair territory.
Quote: MDawgI actually thought "six card Charlie" but I haven't seen that rule in action since when we were kids and played BJ among ourselves, and I have no experience with machine play.
But you can't come up with the answer two days after everyone else knows the answer. If you thought you knew the answer, you should have said something two days ago. Sorry, you're disqualified. RS got the answer first, so he gets all the prizes. If you want, I'll let you have an honorable mention for THINKING about the right answer, two days after everyone else knew the answer. Management reserves all rights.
Just saying that I reiterate what the guy above said, that it wouldn't have occurred to us that we were talking about a video version.
Quote: MDawglol I know I didn't win. Thoughts don't count.

Oh I see. You think I should have made the quiz easier. If I had, it might have been YOU, instead of RS, driving around Vegas tonight in that brand new Mercedes he won. Better luck next time.

Mercedes?! But I want a 1998 Pontiac. This game is unfair! :(
Btw I also accept bitcoin (minimum 3 BTC please, don’t waste my time!).
