A QUESTION for John Grochowski:

Q. What can you tell me about Blackjack Switch?
The Poker Anorak has played the game. It's not easy, but, then, it's no harder than 21.

In Blackjack Switch you play two hands at once. You can switch cards between hands. In other game this is known as cheating.

And, vitally, a dealer hand of 22 bests players' hands of 21 or less.

The player is dealt two hands face up. You place your bets.

Says John: "If the dealer has an Ace or 10 face up, he or she will check for blackjack first. If the dealer has blackjack, all bets are settled and there is no Switch opportunity."

If the dealer does not have blackjack, the player can exchange the second card dealt on each hand.

For example, if the player is dealt 10-5 and 6-10, then the player can swap the top two cards of each hand to make hands of 10-10 and 6-5

The aim is to know the odds.
