Doubling a problem everywhere
I have noticed this house edge when doubling at virtually every casino I play. Also, has anyone else noticed that the 8 card is almost unbeatable? Middle of the pack card, should have approx 50%/50% chance of beating it. HA! I have seen more 8s come up with four losing cards to choose from (at the ones where you get to see what your choices were). Innumerable times seeing 3 out of four lower.
A long time ago I posted some results showing not just the card dealt but an analysis of the choice cards given - showed a distinct house edge. Percentages got even worse on a second or third double. Do any of them actually claim that their doubling procedures are completely random?
