Hi all,
though this is reaching back and may have changed: the only online casino I ever found that actually went thru the shoe like in real life, stopping and shuffling at about 70% into the shoe, was the Cryptologic game … and this at Intercasino. I can only assume the other Cryptos also followed same.
anyone not in the know … Cryptologic had IMHO one of the earliest, best blackjack games online. You sat at a table along next to other players (or choose to play alone) and the shoe would actually stop and shuffle periodically.
I used to know this for certain but now can only guesstimate but I think that they had 4 decks in their shoe.
I always felt the biggest lacking of MGS casinos was the blackjack game, this back before all the versions came available.
