Blackjack Strategy
BlackJack has long been one of the most popular and recognizable games
offered at casinos around the world and in cyberspace. Surprisingly
it is often the most confusing and avoided game by visitors who aren't
familiar with its rules and intricacies. The object of Blackjack is
to obtain a total of 21 points per hand or as close to 21 without exceeding
21. To win you must beat the dealers hand. The Dealer has to stand on
any total of 17 or more and hits on anything less giving the player
a considerable advantage.
Here are some basic rules to abide by when playing BlackJack and the
best advice I can give you is to learn them and just do them! Statistically
they should produce a winning outcome.
- If your first two cards are equal to eleven or less you always draw
another card.
- No matter what card the Dealer is showing you must always assume
that the dealer has a ten hidden.
- If your cards total 12 to 16, "the danger zone', whether you
draw or stand depends on what the dealer is showing.
- If the dealer has a card showing between 7 to an Ace you should
draw until you are over 16.
- If the dealer has a card showing between 2 to 6 you should not draw
another card. Note: There is one exception to the rule above. If you
have 12 and the dealer is showing a 2 or 3 you should draw one more
card only.
- If you have cards valued between 17 to 20 you should never draw
another card. The only time you should draw another card under the
above circimstances is when you have a soft 17 or 18. Note: A soft
17 or 18 occurs when your hand contains an Ace (which is valued at
1 or 11) and a 6 or 7.
- When the player has a soft 17 or 18 it is a good idea to draw if
the dealer is showing any card from a 9 to an Ace.
Insurance is often not recommended, since you are betting that the
dealer will receive a BlackJack (21). You are playing to beat the
dealer not bet that he will beat you.
Below is a BlackJack strategy that, if followed, could lead
you to big winnings the next time you play.
