Vegas Strip Blackjack: Why do Blackjack pros choose this version?

Vegas Strip Blackjack Rules

• The house will use four decks of cards - the fewer decks in play the better the odds are for the player. 
• The dealer must stand on any 17 - because the dealer is forced to stand on soft 17 it means you as the player have more ways to win when you have totals of 17+.
• Players can double down on any total - if you're an aggressive player then the ability to double down any time the dealer is vulnerable is a great tool to have. 
• Players can double down after splitting - one of the best ways to significantly increase your returns to split and double down, so by having the ability to do this in a single hand is fantastic for experienced players. 
• Players can split up to three times - with the exception of splitting aces (this can only be done once), having the ability to re-split means you can take full advantage of a favourable deck and significantly increase your returns on a single hand. 

Vegas Strip Blackjack Strategy

According to most blackjack professionals the key to becoming a long-term winner is to know when the dealer is weak and take advantage of this with strong moves. In a nutshell this means that if the dealer is showing a weak card (3, 4, 5 or 6) then you should always split or double down if possible.
