Online Blackjack Strategy

If people would spend just a few minutes learning basic Blackjack strategy their overall betting profit would be much greater.

Blackjack strategy is so important to learn if you want to do well. The house advantage in Internet Blackjack is about 5.5 percent, but that percentage does not include basic Blackjack strategy, it is based on the long-term percentages of the dealer against the player. If you play good basic Blackjack strategy you can reduce that percentage by half. When it comes to basic Blackjack strategy we assume the dealer’s hole card is a 10. Most of the time that will not be the case, but we have to assume it is in Blackjack strategy. If the dealer is showing a Two, Three, Four, Five, or Six, he is more likely to bust so we want to double up if we have the cards. We also don’t want to take chances by hitting because he is likely to bust. If the dealer is showing a Seven or anything higher, there is a good chance he will make a good hand of 18, 19, 20, or 21.

Here are the Internet Blackjack basics of what we just went over. If your hand is 11 or less, always hit. You can’t bust and you can only help your hand. If your hand is 17 or more, and the dealer doesn’t have a 7 or more showing, always stand. This is pretty much a no-brainer in Blackjack strategy. If you have 12-16 and the dealer has one of those bust cards we listed above, always stand. We have a weak hand but we are banking on the dealer busting. If you have 12-16 and the dealer has a 7 or more showing, you have to hit in Blackjack strategy.

Those are the basics of Blackjack strategy. There are a lot of variations to these tips in Blackjack strategy, but these basics will get you started in the right direction. One thing we didn’t mention is doubling down and you want to do that whenever the dealer has one of those weak hands listed and you have anything less than 12. You can also play soft aces a bit differently and more aggressively, but the basic Blackjack strategy tips we went over will definitely increase your profitability when playing Internet Blackjack.
