Is there any specific reason why you can't split Aces at the blackjack table? |

Did you only have 2 cards in total at the time, A and an A?

Some house rules don't allow splitting of aces (though these are ones that provide the larger/largest house edges - some further info http://www.qfit.com/blackjack-rules-split.htm), so possible that this has been/was included in the coding for blackjack in the MR casinos. |

I know at one point it was coded so that aces may be split, but only one time. |

I am assuming that this is due to house rules (although some clarification would be appreciated), however in my experience (in the UK at least) most houses allow you to split aces but only allow one draw card on each... |

Just wondering, will this be changed?
or is it a specific "house rule" that MR casinos will implement by default? |

Why would it be changed?
It's a common rule often employed by casinos to increase the house edge slightly. I'm sure the casino owners on MR, if given the choice, would certainly choose to keep the house rules as are (or even push them more in the houses favour if they could). |
