Question by : How many decks are used in UK casino blackjack?
Hello,

What is the number of decks used in the game of casino blackjack in the united kingdom?

Are there regulations to the number of decks of cards used or is it at the individual casinos discretion?

This is just regarding the UK.

Thank you

Answer by Joe Corbo
It used to be four decks when I was there a long time ago, but I don’t know what it is today. The average person is an idiot and a party animal, and knows little if anything about the technical aspects of the game. He doesn’t care if it’s one deck or 100 decks, or if continuous shuffle machines are used. He believes it’s all about “luck.”

Answer by choko_canyon
On AVERAGE, you can expect to win about 4 out of 10 hands, possibly 5 out of 10. The trick is in knowing how to maximize your wins and minimize your losses. If you play perfectly, the house odds come down to about 53%/47% in their favor.

Answer by vpippfraf
Havent played blackjack at crown for ages (poker player) but it is either 6 or 8. Someone who regs BJ there can probably answer 100% correctly. Not sure about the tables with auto shufflers though.

You can always just ask the dealer/floor person next time you are there

Go for it man!! Vegas is pretty understanding when it comes to cheaters. It usually takes 3 times of getting caught before they have you arrested and booked. Consider the first two times of getting caught as “practice”.

Question by Repairmanjack: How many Palestinians children have been killed because of the Hamas ‘CNN Strategy’?
“As Israel persists in its military efforts — by ground, air and sea — to protect its citizens from deadly Hamas rockets, and as protests against Israel increase around the world, the success of the abominable Hamas double war crime strategy becomes evident. The strategy is as simple as it is cynical: Provoke Israel by playing Russian roulette with its children, firing rockets at kindergartens, playgrounds and hospitals; hide behind its own civilians when firing at Israeli civilians; refuse to build bunkers for its own civilians; have TV cameras ready to transmit every image of dead Palestinians, especially children; exaggerate the number of civilians killed by including as “children” Hamas fighters who are 16 or 17 years old and as “women,” female terrorists.

Hamas itself has a name for this. They call it “the CNN strategy”

Excerpts from a speech by Hamas MP Fathi Hammad, broadcast on Al-Aqsa TV on February 29, 2008:
Fathi Hammad: [The enemies of Allah] do not know that the Palestinian people has developed its [methods] of death and death-seeking. For the Palestinian people, death has become an industry, at which women excel, and so do all the people living on this land. The elderly excel at this, and so do the mujahideen and the children. This is why they have formed human shields of the women, the children, the elderly, and the mujahideen, in order to challenge the Zionist bombing machine. It is as if they were saying to the Zionist enemy: “We desire death like you desire life.” (THIS IS THE MOST MORALLY BANKRUPT STATEMENT I HAVE EVER HEARD!!)

Hamas’s Al-Aqsa TV called upon children to form a human shield at the home of Abu al-Hatal of the a-Shouqaf quarter of Sajaiyeh in order to protect the building from an anticipated IDF airstrike.

Gazan women were used as human shields to allow besieged Hamas gunmen to flee from Israeli forces in Beit Hanun.

The IAF warned Muhammad Weil Baroud, responsible for firing Kassam rockets at Israel, to evacuate his home in Beit Lahiya in advance of an air strike. Instead, hundreds of locals, mostly women and children, were recruited to Baroud’s house. Israel suspended the air strike, lest these human shields be harmed. In response to the incident, Hamas crowed: “We won. From now on we will form human chains around every house threatened with demolition.”

There are many, many more examples. THIS TACTIC WOULD NOT WORK IF THE ISRAELIS WERE THE BARBARIANS HAMAS IS.
“You make feel sick”

I make you sick? The ones that are using children as suicide bombers and human shields don’t make you sick? WOW!
“you can never be jewish even if you take the land and call it your israel, ”

Huh? I’ver never nbbeen Jewish – and I’m sure not a terrorist. How can you read the above – right out of the mouth of Hamas – and go after ME??!! I care about children, I don’t kill them. You support the killers. Shame on you!
“you MUST come from another planet”

No, but I wish this guy would go to one:

You support death. I support life. It’s that simple.
“since the start of the military operation,
1193 Palestinians have been killed, including
410 children,
108 women,
118 elderly,”

EXACTLY!!! Excerpts from a speech by Hamas MP Fathi Hammad, broadcast on Al-Aqsa TV on February 29, 2008:
Fathi Hammad: [The enemies of Allah] do not know that the Palestinian people has developed its [methods] of death and death-seeking.

“The Hamas regards it as a propaganda victory if their fellow Muslims get killed. And a “military” victory if Jews get killed. It’s a win-win situation for the Muslim terrorists.”

Question by john: How many tie hands in a row have you ever seen in baccarat ?
Either in a land casino or playing online.

Best answer:

Answer by pdq
Personally, I haven’t played enough baccarat to witness any really big streaks of ties. I think I remember seeing 3 in a row a few times.

I might be mistaken, but I’m quite sure it’s 1 out of 10 to hit a tie. (9 to 1 odds, so they pay you 8 to 1 on the bet.)

If that is right, then AFTER you’ve seen your first tie, you could expect a 2nd to hit right after that once ever 10 times. After hitting 1 tie, expect to make it a 3-in-a-row about once ever 100 times, and 4-in-a-row once every 1,000 times. Again – these numbers are after you’ve already hit 1 tie looking for a streak.

Add a zero at the end of those numbers if you are just sitting down and are wondering what the odds are of hitting any streak of ties right now. 1 in 10 for one; 1 in 100 for two; 1 in 1,000 for three, 1 in 10,000 for four; 1 in 100,000 for five; and once in every million times will you sit down and get 6 ties hands in a row. I’m sure it happens, but not very often.

Last note – these are all based on a 1 in 10 shot of getting a tie. 1 in 10 seems logical seeing that there are 10 outcomes in baccarat for any hand. Please, someone let me know if I’m wrong about that stat.
