Playing Blackjack the Smart Way
Saturday, 28. November 2009, 07:53:10
Take insurance only when you have an intuitive feeling that the dealer has blackjack, or if you are card counting and know the cards remaining in the deck.
Tip#1-This is easy, and it's a no-brainer. Play tables that offer only a one deck game. Stay away from the multi-deck shoes as these give the house a huge advantage. Your winning percentage literally drops to about 30% edge, not a smart way to approach the game. The tables get turned, with the richer concentration of face cards, the house easily attains 17-21's almost 75% of the time. And with that richer concentration, the player attains more busts or 12-16 hands frequently. Stay away from these at all costs.
Tip#2-Keep the betting consistent. Don't waver your bets with every hand. To take advantage of a winning hand percentage, keep the bets close by within 5-10 dollars each time. When your pot is running low, don't make the emotional chase bets to try and make up the losses. Gain control of your play and keep it steady. Like most slot machines, blackjack offers a 96% payback to even. So when the action gets hot and you're losing control, take a quick 15 minute break and rest your thinking for the next session.
Tip#3-Don't bet a double down or split high pairs unless absolutely necessary. If the house has 3's-6's showing, that would be a smart move to play and more than likely you'll win 80% of those doubles or splits. Don't split face cards because they're almost a sure win. Split all aces when you get them. And don't split or double when the dealer is showing high cards. It's again all basic blackjack but you would be surprised at how many players stray away from this basic strategy when they're not thinking clearly.
Tip#4-Play a hot table! Examine hot tables by playing into the emotions and psychology of other players. Also take the time to examine a running 3 play session and try to get an understanding of the win to loss ratio of each player. It's not illegal but you're using this as a tool to find out which tables are sure bets.
Tip#5-And finally, don't be afraid to play one on one with the dealer. Not that it's a bad thing to play with a full table of players. But the more frequently a dealer has to shuffle, the easier it is to quickly turn the tide to the house's advantage. The change in the winning percentage is only about a 1-5% decrease but every little winning edge makes the difference in this game.
There are many things the beginner, intermediate or advanced players can do to improve their odds at the blackjack table. Below we provide a selection of blackjack tips that should help you prolong your time at the table:
The most important blackjack tip: The objective of the blackjack is to beat the dealer. Too many times blackjack hints are written that claim that the goal of the game is to get close to 21.
Is not possible to beat the game consistently. This is probably the second most important blackjack tip to remember – you won’t always win. Accept that losing is part of the game. This will improve your mindset as much as anything and will keep you focused on the game, keeping your skill level up.
Look for a table whose minimum is no more than 5 percent of you total stash. When you choose a blackjack table, take into account rule variations that help the player such as the option of doubling down on any two cards, or the dealer having to stand on soft 17. Even if you do not fully understand them, such rule variations can work to your benefit.

Let’s take a look at what the odds are of winning one of the worst player hands in blackjack - a 16 - when the dealer’s upcard is a 10. If you analyze this hand over and over using a blackjack computer software program, you'll find that you will lose over the long run about 77% of the hands when you hit. That means you will win about 23% of the hands. If I wager a buck a hand, lose 77 hands, and win 23, I would be down $54 (77-23). But what about standing on that 16 rather than hitting? You'll actually do a tad bit worse and if we round the numbers, you’ll end up losing about the same - $54.
