How to Play Blackjack Correctly

blackjack

Blackjack is a popular casino game that requires basic strategy and knowledge of the rules to win. It is played on a semicircular table and can accommodate varying numbers of players. It has a house advantage, but players can reduce this to a small percentage by playing correctly.

The objective of the game is to beat the dealer’s hand by getting a higher point value than the dealer. If the player’s hand totals less than 21, they lose, but if it exceeds 21 the dealer wins. The payoff is a 1 to 1 odds (even money).

When to Hit or Stand

The most important decision a player must make in blackjack is when to hit or stand. A player’s choice depends on their point total, the value of the dealer’s card, and whether or not they want to double down or split.

If you have a high hand value, the best move is to stand on it. This is especially true if your hand has a hard 17 or any other number that is relatively closer to 21 than the dealer’s up card.

It’s also a good idea to check the dealer’s up card when you are considering hitting or standing. This is because the dealer’s up card is a good indicator of whether or not your hand is likely to bust.

A strategy chart can help you determine the best move to make when you are dealt a specific blackjack hand. Just copy a free chart from an image search online and refer to it when you are playing. It’s easy to memorize, and it will give you the optimal moves to make based on the value of your two cards and the dealer’s up card.

When to Take Insurance

If the dealer’s up card is an ace, the player can place a side bet called “insurance” that pays 2 to 1. This is a bad bet because it doesn’t reflect the odds of the dealer’s hand, but it can help players who are not counting cards or have no clue what the dealer’s ‘hole card’ is.

When to Double Down

In blackjack, you can also double your bet by doubling down on your initial two cards. This is a great way to increase your chances of winning without risking too much.

When to Surrender

In some casinos, you can surrender your hand for half of your bet if the dealer’s up card is an aces or a 10 and your point value is less than 11. This will save you from losing too much money and allow you to walk away without losing any of your chips.

When to Double Down

In most cases, the best move is to double your bet. However, you should never double down if the dealer’s up card is a 9 or an Ace. This is because if the dealer’s up card is not an Ace, the chances of you having a better hand are much lower than if you had doubled down.
