Blackjack Basic Strategy

The strategy card for These casino’s is Below.



How To Use Strategy Card ??

Example 1

The dealer’s hand is along the top. In the example above, you have been dealt a 7 and a King, totally 17. Ten, Jack, Queen and King all count 10 points. The dealer has 2. Look at the strategy card and look on the left hand side for 17 and then along the top for 2. Where this column and row crosses is a red ‘S’ for STAND, so you should click STAND.



Let’s look at another - Example 2

<--- We are now dealt the following hand: a 6 and an 8, totaling 14. The dealer has a 7. Looking along the left hand side of the strategy card for 14 and then along the top for 7 we find agreen ‘H’ for Hit. So you should click on the Hit button. You now have 20, so looking at the strategy card, this tells you to Stand (S). ----->











And it’s a simple as that – Just follow the rules click the below banner and you’ll be fine




If the strategy card shows a blue ‘D’, you click on Double if the option is available. This will double your bet and give you one card only.
It the card says ‘P’ you should click on the ‘Split’ button if available.
If a split occurs you the have two hands to play with. Treat each hand as you would a single hand
and just follow the strategy card to work out what to do.
Note the strategy card also has options for when you have two of the same card and also when one of the cards is an Ace. E.g. if you have Ace, 5 and the dealer has a four, you should click on ‘Double’.
If you are dealt two cards that add up to seven or less and do not include an ace, then HIT.
If the dealer is showing an Ace, you will be offered insurance. Do not take it.
That’s it. By sticking to the strategy card you will be playing perfect blackjack!
