KJ, there are a few casual gamblers who are here to enhance their game, blackjack included. There are also those who just want to learn, period. I fall into both categories.
I see the logic of both sides and the different reasoning as to how Moses and you would play 16 vs 10. Since I am not a card counter, though my buddy is (and we casually gambler as a pair), I played by the statedgy card and always hit on 16 vs 10. Before posting, I did a little research and found out that a multi card (three or more) 16 vs 10 should be played as a hold. Interesting. I never knew this.
Just because many individuals do not respond to blackjack posts, it does not mean the information is not being absorbed.
Heck, on my last visit to Vegas a few months ago I was berated by the guy next to me on how I played a certain hand. I played it by the book. I even showed him the strategy card but that was not good enough. He left the table shaking his head. After he left, I looked at the other gamblers and said, “Let’s have some fun!”, Oh, for the record, I woke up at 5 AM the next morning and reviewed four different websites about the play. No author strayed from the card.
Keep the informational posts coming.
I read a rule once on 16 vs. Ten that went like this:
Hit a 16 that has a 6 and also contains a 6,7,8 or 9. Stand on the rest. These would all have to have 3 cards or more. Don't know how accurate it is.
