None of the Blackjack strategies guarantees any kind of profit. Luck is an inevitable part of this game. However, by using a strategy you can significantly improve your chances of winning. Using the table below, we will give you tips on the best action to take when you hold certain hands. There are four different strategies:
Double
You can choose to double your bet. You will then receive one extra card, but after this you will be forced to stand. This option is best used when you have ten or eleven points.
Hit
When you hold a hand with a low value, it is advisable to ask for an extra card. Always do this when you have only 8 points. Even when the bank holds high cards this strategy is useful.
Pass
You can choose not to continue playing. You should always do this when you hold two cards with a value of 10. We also recommend using this strategy when you hold cards with a value of 17 and when you hold an ace and an 8.
Split
When you receive two cards of equal value you can split your cards. This means your chances are doubled. On the strategy card you can see that fives and tens should never be split, but aces and eights should always be split. Twos, threes, sevens and nines are best split in almost all cases.
