e.g. so if its you vs 3 others, one guys got a huge bet on and makes a 20, two other guys have 17s - you pull a 17 but can still choose to hit, because losing to the other guy will break you and winning will give you a huge advantage advancing to the next round. I think they're in a shootout format, everyone starting with the same chips.
pretty sure that would affect the whole format and strategy. Ultimately any games against other players and not the house should be okay so long as the rake does not kill it.
I have not seriously looked into black jack because i always considered it a house game.
