I have made the change from Blackjack to Spanish 21 and I wonder if anyone else likes this game at least as much, if not better than blackjack. Maybe it's because I play at Caesars casinos and their blackjack rules are terrible. However, I have found their Spanish 21 rules, at least on the east coast, are quite friendly. Dealer stays on soft 17, surrender after doubling, split aces, resplitting allowed, can double down after any amount of cards, can double after split. I have not seen many Spanish 21 games in las Vegas, and maybe they are at other properties. Are there a lot of Spanish 21 tables in Las Vegas? I will be out there again in a couple of months and would like to be able to find them.

Last time I was in Vegas (July) The Fitz had a good Spanish 21 game. It was H17 with up to 3 redoubles. Pretty, pretty, pretty fun.

I'm with you... I rather enjoy Spanish 21, although I have to use my strategy card at the table, as I don't have all the exceptions memorized just yet. And at most places in AC, Spanish is a much better game than BJ.

Good luck finding the game in Vegas though. The Cosmopolitan has a few tables, spread out, but they are the bad rules (H17 no redouble). The environment is quite nice though. The Fitz also apparently has it, but Excalibur got rid of their table and it never really caught on.

I'm pretty sure I saw it at the Flamingo back in December, but I didn't look at the rules since I don't play Spanish. Also I may have just made that up out of thin air...
