Hi all,
I discovered (what appear to be) a couple of mistakes on the wizard of odds website. Wasn't sure where to give feedback. So here...
1. In the Free Bet Blackjack article, under "Rule Variants", Michael says, "No free re-splits on a pair of fours (DG): -0.27%." I suspect this is supposed to read "No free splits on a pair of fours (DG): -0.27%."
2. In the Pontoon there is no basic strategy chart given in the "Strategy" section. It just says "The following table shows the basic strategy for Pontoon", but then there's nothing there.
If anyone knows whether 1. is in fact an error, or 2. where I can find Pontoon basic strategy, let me know.
Thanks

you want to post things in a way it doesn't sound like that, esp the title

These are just typos.

Thank you for those corrections, which I made. In the future, I prefer error reports be made to me directly by private message.
