I too have played in many Beau BJ tourneys and yes they definitely do enforce this rule which is totally fine since they reiterate it over and over and over! What I truly love is the player that STILL does it after all the repetition, then bitch and moan when they get another card on their 20 ! So when this happens I simply think, "You know what? That's TOUGH LUCK! Should've listened to directions!!!"
But either way, I love the Beau tournaments, and play in as many of them (esp. BJ) I can! In November, for the "TOPDOG" tourney, I was able to make it to the final table and thought I had it all wrapped up going into the very last hand, I was really only competing against 1 person but I was on the button first. Bet it all and was dealt a cool BJ... being very excited of this, I didn't even consider the DD option my competitor could've done... and you know the rest of the story, he DD'd and edged me out but.... had *I* DD it may have been taking more of a risk than my already GTD 2nd place $15000 bec the dealer would have to bust out otherwise I could easily be wiped down to only 4th or something like that... fun stuff.
