Minimum bet is 0.0001 BTC
Maximum bet is 1 BTC
Blackjack pays 3:2
Insurance pays 2:1
Number of decks is 5
Number of allowed splits is 3
Dealer does not hit on soft 17
Can double after split
Can not hit split aces
Can resplit aces
Can double on first two
Dealer does not peek
Is it normal with these rules that you lose both bets if you
- double down against a 10-j-q-k and the dealer has a hidden ace (blackjack)
- split aces and get 21 on one or both, but the dealer has a hidden blackjack?

perfectly normal
usually dealer's blackjack beats any of the player's hands except for blackjack which is a push usually
this casino's rules are pretty common, no gimmicks ,don't know why are you so surprised
I understand that players hands lose against blackjack. However, where I have played, if you double down and the dealer shows blackjack (not an ace up, but a 10-face) and it's a blackjack, you lose the initial bet and get the double down bet back (since there is no peek in this game)
I will refer you to the Blackjack rules:

hope reading this will answer your questions once and for all
Wow, The original post is spot on, and "veteran" is dead wrong... I never thought about it, but when the dealer has blackjack there is no hand played.... You should NOT be able to SPLIT, DOUBLE, (AKA BET MORE) and find out you lose to a blackjack....
That is a great point.....
(Veteran, you actually posted the wikipedia article for blackjack? Like he couldnt find that, and not only that, you make the statement "Why are you surprised?" It seems like you are almost mocking him when your response is then, in turn, so aggressively stupid.... I'm assuming you just didn't understand what hes asking, but then to give an arrogant wrong response is really annoying)
Who would need any resource to look up what happens when the dealer has Blackjack, with a Face Card up, the hand ends.... Dealer wins,
His question is saying in that scenario, why is he able to double down and lose more, or split and lose more, the hand should not be played.....
it is you who doesn't understand a thing
he was asking if the dealer has a FACE CARD opened NOT AN ACE
the dealer doesn't check for blackjack in this scenario
the hand is dealt according to the house rules which is doubles,split blackjacks lose against dealers bj etc.
learn to read before you make a fool of yourself
some rules take only the initial bet (like in Nevada,for example) ,not the double portion of a bet if the dealer has a bj, but not to allow to double down or split on a dealer's 10/face card? what a nonsense
