How to Win Blackjack

A winning blackjack hand is the one that totals closest to 21, without going over.

If the first two cards you draw are an Ace paired with a 10 or picture card, you have won blackjack and win 150% of your original bet.

This hand is unbeatable.

The cards all score their own numerical value with the picture cards all counting as 10, while the Ace can score one or 11, depending on which score is more beneficial to your hand.

 

Features

Blackjack’s popularity can be put down to the many variants of this casino classic.

Splitting - if you receive two cards of the same value then you will have the chance to split them and form two hands. When splitting you must place the same wager on both hands and then play each card as if it were a normal hand.

Doubling Down - this will double your original bet after you have seen your first two cards. After doubling, you may only draw one more card.

If you double down and then win you will be paid out for your original wager and your additional double bet.

If the dealer draws blackjack after you have split or doubled then your entire bet will be lost.

Insurance - if the dealer’s first card is an Ace, you will have the option to safeguard your hand by buying insurance. This will cost you half of your original wager - if the dealer does draw blackjack, your insurance will pay out at 2:1 with your original wager lost.

If the dealer does not have blackjack, you will lose your insurance bet and the hand will continue as normal.

Surrender - the surrender option allows you to walk away from your hand after it has been dealt; this will cost you half of your original wager.

 

Four Decks

Vegas Strip Blackjack is played with four decks of cards, which should improve your win expectation by 0.6% compared to an eight-deck game.

 

Stand on All 17

The dealer must stand on all 17’s in Vegas Strip Blackjack, which slightly improves your chances of winning.
