this will be a blast...the tension to either win as much as $37500 or come away with nothing is INTENSE!

You could potentiall win 50K if you split... maybe more if you DOUBLE after you split.....

I'll try and write the guy some thoughts about deal making in the next few days, esp. if he is receptive to advice. I have pertinent thoughts about stuff like this, here's just one example that probably hasn't been considered.

Bear gets a pair of 6's against a 6, pulls 25k out of his pocket to split, makes a 17 and a 19, dealer makes 18, push...sort of ! Can he pick up his 25k and RX's 25k and leave, up 25k ?

I have good blackjack knowledge, esp. thoughts on what's fair to a backing deal , for both involved parties.

You never need a backer to double, the backer is there for splits. Allowing backer to DD could cost you the 25k, if you make a bad deal.

The original 25K laydown is the Rx.'s money and the hand effecting that laydown will dicate where it ends up. Either with the house if the hand loses or if the hand wins back with the Rx which would mean the player pockets the winnings. Any further laydown on a splits will be from separate funds that belong to the player (or partners of his). Natrually a double down results in both the original laydown and the DD laydown having identical fates. Pushes on the original laydown will ride on another hand until a decision is arrived at. Pushes on split laydowns are up to the player a to what to do with next.

Therefore the player could walk after this theoretical scenerario, then. Good rule for Bear, but he seems unlikely to pull 25k out of pocket, given he took acct before. Not many of us could pull 25k out of pocket here, I wouldn't. You basically want out with the money, then choose what to do with it.

Maybe I read that wrong ? Sounds like a walk is OK to me with RX money ?, after what I described.

Under this scenario if the original hand bet with the Rx. stake gets the 17 and loses to the dealers 18 then the player is free to walk with the entire $50k he wins with the $25k he bet on the second 6 that won with a 19 to the dealers 18..

Vice Versa then the player gets the $25K from the Rx. winning 19 (vs dealers 18) and the Rx. retains it's stake from that winning hand but the player loses his own $25K on the losing 17 split bet he made with his own money vs the dealers 18..
