I hear ya Meta, drives me nuts when third base feels the need to deviate from basic strategy and change the dealers losing hand to a winning hand. However, as much as I get frustrated the same way you do, bdjuf is correct in that theoretically someone else's play does not change the statistics of you winning or losing.

Keep in mind, we tend to remember all those times when someone varied from basic strategy and caused us to lose, but disregard those times when their unorthodox moves caused the dealer to bust when they wouldn't have otherwise.

Play higher min limit tables and you'll weed out many of the idiotic players, if you play $5 black jack you're gotta expect some morons. Get up and leave when you see a player playing like you described, otherwise you'll put yourself through misery.
