[StrangerCoug]

Research indicates that it can vary if the hole card is shown on a dealer no-play; we'll go ahead and show it, unless you rule otherwise.

Yes, show the hole card on a no-play.

Hand 29 - play.

Dealer has an Ace, so Insurance is offered.
Zen/Count's insurance formula: 50/189 < 1/3, so no insurance.
Apple Siri has no programming about insurance; default is no insurance.

Dealer scans, no blackjack.

Zen Count/Basic has a blackjack, so it wins with a 3:2 payout.
Apple Siri has an 11 against a dealer ace. Ace is the one case where it doesn't double down on 11, so that's a HIT. Which is a 10H, putting it at 21.

Dealer reveals a soft 13. HIT: 2C, 15. HIT: AC, 16. HIT: 2C, 18. STAND. Everyone wins!

Results:

Zen Count/Basic wins $7,500, putting it at $1,222,500.
Apple Siri wins $5,000, putting it at $1,093,500.

And that's a wrap, other than posting the hands and keeping an eye out for errors!

Do you want to post any of these, or do you want me to take care of it?

[StrangerCoug]

You're good, though I will probably provide my comments after the final hand. The point of getting a co-mod was really to ensure the game's completion after all the work burned me out.

Hand 30 is posted. Appeals are open.

Barring any objections on your end, I'll leave this open at least until appeals are done. Assuming no material appeals (or at least, nothing that requires a replay), I'll lock this and open it up later on Sunday.
