INSIDE BLACKJACK PART 2
In our previous article, Larry’s Las Vegas revealed the “House Edge” or “House Percentage” the casinos enjoy. Your objective is to swing those odds in your favor. Larry’s Las Vegas will show you how. We taught you how the number of decks used can affect your odds, so which game do you play? Based on availability, Blackjack payoff odds, liberal splitting and doubling rules, one game stands out.
Larry’s Las Vegas recommends our readers play “Double Deck” Blackjack only. Search and/or ask the Pit personnel for the game most favorable to you. “Double Deck”, “Dealer hits soft 17”, “Double after Split” allowed. This game, when played using “Basic Strategy” rules, leaves the “House” with only a 0.40% “HP”
(Register with larryslasvegas.com and learn how to obtain a “Basic Strategy Chart”)
While learning Basic Strategy, these are a few Rules of Thumb you should remember:
You never hit a hard 17 or higher.
Double Down on 11, except when the Dealer up card is an Ace.
Double on 10 except against a 10 or Ace.
Double on nine against a three through six.
Always stand on a soft 19.
Always split aces and eights
Larry’s Las Vegas has shown you how the house gets its “edge” and which game to play, now we shall teach YOU how to get the edge. As you have learned, playing with a maximum of two decks and using Basic Strategy decreases the Houses advantage considerably.
Is it possible for the odds to be in your favor? Can you play Blackjack in a Casino with YOU being the favorite to win? You bet you can! Stay tuned for Larry’s “Inside Blackjack Part 3”. Seek out a good Double Deck Game. Study your Basic Strategy Chart. In part three we will show you a method of “Card Counting” we refer to as a basic “Plus/Minus system. If you can count to twenty-one, we will show you how to play Blackjack like a Pro and Win.
