To increase your chances to win at blackjack, below are Blackjack Tips that will help you play your best:

• In picking a table, consider rules variations that could increase your advantage, like the dealer having to stand on soft 17, or doubling down on any two cards.
• Unless you’re counting cards or you have a gut feeling that the dealer has blackjack, never take insurance when offered.
• Never split 10's or 5’s
• Always split Aces
• Always split 7’s and 8's against an equal or lower dealer’s card
• Always split 2's or 3's against a 4, 5, or 6
• Never split F’s cards: Face Cards, Four’s and Five’s
• Doubling down is the player's chief advantage, so don't ignore it:

- If the dealer’s up card is 3 to 6, doubling with 9

- If the dealer's up card is anything but a 10 or an Ace, doubling with 10

- If the dealer's up card is anything but an Ace, doubling with 11.


• Stand on hard 13-16 if the dealer's up card is 6 or lower, but hit if the dealer's showing card is 7-Ace.
• Stand on 17 or higher if the dealer is showing 7 or lower.
• Always stand on 12 or higher if the dealer’s up card is 4-6.
• Hit until you have at least 17 and the dealer 10.
• Hit a 12 if the dealer is showing 2, 3, 7 or higher.
• Hit a soft 17 against a dealer's 10.
