XVP: ISO a good Blackjack site...

#1

Do any of you know of good sites (similar to this one) dedicated to
Blackjack discussion? I would like to learn Basic strategy for when
I find myself in properties with lousy VP schedules... or maybe just
for a change of pace. I've read three books and have been to a few
Web sites only to discover that no two Basic strategies agree. I
find this very strange. When considering, single deck, double down
on any two cards, etc., one would think that Basic strategy would
be... well... `basic' to all like games with like rules. Not so. I
feel a discussion with others interested in Blackjack is required for
me to make an informed decision on which Basic strategy is... `basic'.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Here is BJ 101.... Rule changes / # of decks = Changes in strategy .

Now that we have that out of the way, I can give you some great advice.
Go to the following website.... http://www.blackjackinfo.com/bjbse.htm .
This is the home of the Blackjack Basic Strategy Engine . You plug in the rules and number of decks and it creates your basic strategy, and it's free ..
