Blackjack Strategy

The basic strategy of blackjack is simple and straightforward. Once you master this, you are ready for a more advanced strategy.

Basic Strategy of Blackjack

Basic strategy explains the safest way to play out your blackjack hand in order to increase your odds of being a winner.

In order to determine which basic strategy chart applies to the blackjack table at Victor Chandler Casino, these house rules are important:

The dealer must draw cards until his hand totals at least 17, and must stand at 17 or higher.
The 6 deck shoe is shuffled after each round. (In traditional casinos, players can better their chances of winning by learning how to count cards in an effort to predict the cards still left in the deck. However, since the deck is shuffled after each round at most of the Online Casinos, card counting is not possible).
Players are allowed to double after splitting, but are not allowed to re-split a split hand.
