Something else I just discovered last night while first playing for fun (they cut my fun account off after just 30 hands of BJ!), then messaging CS with my questions.
They have a scaled minimum and maximum betting limit for blackjack. You have to choose between one of three levels:
MIN 1 / MAX 300
MIN 10 / MAX 500
MIN 20 / MAX 1000
Why do this? Can't you just switch the scale from one hand to the next? Seems silly.

Well, in a brick and mortar casino, limiting the bet spread (a LOT) will tend to thwart card counters.
Online, it has two benefits for the casino that I can think of:
1) If a player is martingaling, and goes on a bad streak, this will prevent them from betting a nearly-infinite bet, and ensuring the casino gets the bust-out.
2) It limits the damage that can be done by someone sweeping in with a one-shot risky bonus-hustlin bet when the bonus is sticky.
