Basic Blackjack Tips You Can't Miss

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Blackjack is easily one of the most popular table games in any physical or online casino. But it can be challenging for new players to become good at the game. That is why we prepared some tips and strategies that you can use to improve your chances of winning.

Before we begin, we want to remind you that blackjack is a game that relies heavily on luck, so no strategy or trick can guarantee your victory.

Learn the Charts, Remember the Numbers

If you want to become good at blackjack, it’s essential that you first learn Blackjack Basic Strategy, which consists of learning when you should double your bet, hit or stand depending on the hand you have.

To learn Blackjack Basic Strategy, you must memorize all the possible charts and combinations for each type of blackjack. Memorizing might sound hard at first, but there are ways to learn without spending a cent.

If you play in an nettikasino, you can find many blackjack titles with a demo mode available, allowing you to play for free against the computer. You won’t win any money while playing on this mode, but you can practice and use it on live dealer casinos.

Never Take Insurance

If the dealer draws an Ace as his revealed face-up card, you will be offered an insurance side bet. This insurance allows you to bet up to half of your original bet and pays out on 2/1.

If you take the insurance and the croupier draws a 10 (or a Jack, a Queen or King) and makes a blackjack, you will win the insurance bet and recover most or all of your original bet.

However, if the croupier doesn’t draw a blackjack, you will lose the insurance bet, reducing any winnings you might obtain during the game.

While insurance sounds like an excellent option to avoid losing against a possible blackjack, it’s not worth it since the chances of winning the insurance are pretty low.

Learn When to Split

If the first two cards you are dealt are a pair, you can split your hand in two and place an additional bet. But you must know when to do this, as you could potentially increase your winnings or miss them entirely.

Let’s suppose you start the game with a pair of eights. This combined hand would result in 16, a bad number in blackjack. However, if you split your bet, you will get two hands with eight, which is a significant number to start hitting and ask for cards.

Of course, not all the hands are worth splitting. If you get a pair of 10, you will get 20 which is the closest number to 21. You could split and hit, but this puts you at risk of unnecessarily drawing a bad hand and losing your bet.

Learn When to Double Your Bet

Doubling your bet is a risky move only by the most confident players. This option consists of double the value of your bet, but if you do this, you will only be able to draw one more card before sitting. Be sure only to double your bet when you have a hand of 17 or more to ensure your chances of winning.
