How to play
Blackjack is an immensely popular casino game. It’s fast and fun and you do not need to compete with other Players - you only need to beat the dealer without the cards in your hand exceeding a total of 21. The game of blackjack offers the best chance of beating the casino, so if you develop your skill and use the correct strategy, you can attain a level of play that significantly increases your chances of winning.
Winning Tips
- The dealer stands a greater chance of busting (reaching a total higher than 21) if his up card is a 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6. He stands a greater chance of completing his hands when his up card is a 7, 8, 9, 10, face card or an Ace.
- You hold a 52% advantage over the casino if you are dealt an Ace as your first card.
- Double down when you're dealt 7s or 8s and the dealer's up card is equal or lower in value. As a general rule, do double down on face cards, 10s or 5s. (To double down you increase your initial wager in return for being dealt one more card if you think that you have a good chance of beating the dealer.)
- Regardless of what the dealer's up card is, you stand a better chance of winning if you split on aces and 8s. Split 2s and 3s against the dealer's 4, 5 or 6.
