    Posted: 09 Sep 2009 at 1:39am
I was just browing the wizard of odds page and his list of bj paytables for vegas casinos.
I came upon something called blackjack "switch" which, with good rules, has a house advantage of below .2%. (listed as low as .16% assuming 21 pays even, 6 deck, dealer hits s17, but not allowing: das, sur or rsa).
 
I had NEVER heard of this and I dedicate at least 50% of my casino play on my normal 3-day vegas trips to blackjack. I researched the game to find out what it was but wondering if anyone else has heard of it and if they enjoyed the game and had good luck with it? Perhaps it's a Vegas only thing?  no indian casinos in CA offer anything like that. I've only seen basic double deck at an indian casino once and that was quite a few years back at $25 min. bet.
 
Thanks for the feedback...

Horseshoe in Hammond Indiana has several Blackjack "Switch" tables, they are usually pretty full. Good luck.

I absolutely love this game. I returned from Las Vegas about 3 weeks ago & played Blackjack Switch for the first time at the Wynn. I ended up winning about $350.00 I actually stopped playing vp & spent my last 2 days playing Blackjack Switch. 
There is not enough time (or space) to try to explain the game in detail. However, the company that "invented" this game have a great web site you can go to & download the game & play it for free. ( DISCLAIMER:  To the best of my knowledge, this is NOT a gambling website.  If I am wrong, let me be the first to apologize to Webman).

Unfortunately, they do link to online gambling sites, so we can't allow the link. But people can probably find it just as easily using google.
