Default House Edge for Electronic BJ in Pennsylvania

Does anyone know the rules used in the electronic blackjack dealt at the Philadelphia Park Casino in PA? I can't seem to find the info on their website or ShuffleMaster's site who makes this electronic table.

In my experience, the edge is 100 percent. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] Seriously, that game is addicting - I can see why people get hooked on it. Play 7 hands at once and superfast, bet what what you want. I'd also be curious if it's handle is programmed like a regular slot or based on perfect basic strategy. My guess is it's programmed to return like 90 percent with perfect play which makes it a high speed ass raping.

Is it a one player machine or are they like the "Digital 21" tables in Cherokee, NC where there are dealers and chips but no cards?

The ev at the park casino is actually less than the 8 deck games in AC AND you cannot count as the cards are shuffled every hand. I suggest driving the extra hour into Jersey.

Park Casino:
6 decks, H17, DOA, DAS, surrender
EV: -0.527408904%

As in AC it is:
8 decks, S17, DOA, DAS
EV: -0.430961236%

Which can be brought up to the positives if you can count well.
