Spanish 21 Odds?

Posted By: ravenslay3r

I've been trying to learn all I can about blackjack, following a recent spring-break trip to Atlantic City. I've read several lists of games to prefer, or avoid but seen no mention of "Spanish 21".

When I was in A.C. i saw "Spanish 21" in every casino. It's blackjack with lots and lots of twists. I think the number-10 cards are removed, but there is surrender, "match-dealer-card" bets, and maybe insurance. Also some interesting pay-off tables.

I'm sure it would need it's own B.S. tables, but it might just be a bad deal all around.

Has anyone heard of this game - and whats the general consensus on it?
And also whats the consensus on "Match-dealer-card" bets? should it be played similar to insurance or not at all? (or always?)

Thanks
Raven
