Question Hi, I'm a good blackjack player. I'll be in Las Vegas within a few days and want to play Spanish 21. I've been playing online for sometime and was wondering local rules. Can I hit split aces for example. I found matches on dealer cards run in streaks. Your input?
Answer You're better off staying with regular blackjack. Not using tens in Spanish 21 give the casino a very big advantage. All match bets add to the house advantage. Rules vary by casino in Vegas
Honest opinion, stick to regular blackjack at the casinos of WYNN, Caesar's, Bellagio, or MGM Grand. Best rules, best games in town.
If you are serious about blackjack, you should learn to count cards, where you HAVE a mathematical advantage over the casino!!
