Strategy of giving up
If the table you are playing at allows it, you should not be afraid to fold your hand in certain situations.
When you fold, half of your bet is returned to you, so you can get some money back when you know your hand is too weak to beat the dealer.
It should be noted that the basic Blackjack strategy states when you should use the fold technique. As you may have already noticed, there are certain hands that will have very little chance of winning and, therefore, it is better to save some money.
Strategy of splitting pairs
The strategy of splitting pairs was originally created to decrease the casino's advantage over players. However-due to the misunderstanding of this rule by most people-it ended up becoming another source of income for casinos.
By splitting pairs you are basically playing with the two cards separately. Literally playing with two hands.
This strategy may always seem advantageous, since with just one bet you are entitled to two chances to win. However, there are certain occasions when you should never split pairs, as is the case with 10s, since the probability of your game improving is very small.
Counting the cards
Card counting in Blackjack is a very difficult strategy to perfect, but one that will give you a great advantage in the game. The technique consists of memorizing which cards have already been played to try to predict the value of the next ones to come out of the deck. Unfortunately you will not be able to use this technique online, as the virtual tables generate each hand randomly and not according to the decks.
Strategy of doubling down
Doubling down is undoubtedly a good choice when you have a more favorable hand than the dealer. With this strategy, you can double your winnings, but you should only use it when you get a fairly safe hand. Basic Blackjack strategy states when you should double your bet.
At the same time, it is important for you to know that by doubling your bet, you will only be entitled to one more card from the deck.
Ask & stay strategy
Asking and staying are crucial parts of the game. Knowing when to ask for more cards or when to stop, and stick with only the ones you have, is indispensable in the game.
The basic Blackjack strategy includes calculations of all situations, so you can improve your chances of winning.
Insurance strategy
This strategy is used when the dealer's visible card is an ace. In this situation, you will have a chance to place insurance, which is a side bet to your original bet. Usually, the insurance amount is half of your initial bet.
In short, you are betting that the dealer will make a Blackjack. If the dealer does in fact get the 21 points and as insurance pays 2:1, then you will receive the value of your original bet. If the Blackjack is not hit, then you will lose the insurance amount and the game continues as normal.
Draw strategy
The draw will be suggested to the player when he reaches a Blackjack and, at the same time, the dealer has, as a visible card, an ace. If the player accepts the draw, then he will be refunded the amount of his bet. If you do not accept the draw, then the dealer will show your hidden card and the game will continue.
