Tip of
the Day
Blackjack
Strategy
- follow
the
dealer
When you
play
blackjack
at your
favorite
online
casinos
there
are many
different
additional
strategies
that
players
follow
other
than the
typical
strategy
- the
one on
the card
that is.
Some
players
say
the
dealer
always
takes
the
money -
so why
no
follow
what the
dealer
does?
Well,
that way
of
thinking
adds a
deceptive
ring of
truth to
our game
play.
After
all, the
dealer
isn't
really
even
doing
anything
- he or
she is
just
following
the
house
rules
right?
So,
players
think if
they
follow
what the
dealer
is doing
- they
too will
win.
After
all -
you even
get paid
3 to 2
when you
hit a
blackjack.
All
things
being
even -
the
money
should
just
come to
the
player...but
things
are not
even
folks.
See, the
logic
behind
this
thinking
gets
demolished
when we
both
the
dealer
and the
player
bust.
There
actually
is so
real
symmetry
in this
case -
the
dealer
is the
winner,
not the
player.
Statistically
speaking,
the
dealer
will
bust
nearly
28.2% of
the
time. I
you
should
copy
what the
dealer
is
doing,
you
would
bust
28.2% of
the time
as well.
Additionally,
you
would be
hurt
when
ever
there is
a
double
bust.
This
happens
nearly
8% of
the
time.
Are you
seeing
the real
deal
yet? You
would
have an
8%
disadvantage
actually.
A little
help in
your
favor
regarding
this
stat is
that the
2.3% pay
off you
get from
a
natural
will
cut the
house
advantage
down a
bit to
5.7%. Is
this
good
enough –
no it is
not.
Online
gambling
is great
fun and
the more
you
really
understand
about
the many
facets
of
gaming
strategy
- the
better
off you
are.
