The blackjack dealer has undoubtedly the best position at the table. No blackjack player can ever take the dealer's position. The best position for a player is just before the dealer (the last seat or the third base). The more players at the table, the better for the player in the last seat. The more players busted before the third base, the lower the bust probability for the blackjack player in the last position. The reverse is also true: No busts by the players before you, in the last position, your bust probability is higher — the blackjack dealer's, too!
If you play blackjack, be sure to sit in last chair, just before the dealer. The more players at the blackjack table, the better you are. And be sure to chip in with at least the table's maximum limit (to withstand long losing streaks). Try to play no more than 100 hands at the same table (higher probability for shorter losing streaks). You can play much more aggressively within the first 50-100 blackjack hands. If you and I happen to be at the same table, be grateful and let me sit at the third base! You can still learn a blackjack trick or two by watching me...
Hear now another new bold statement: Blackjack is a positional game of chance. The position of the players, dealer included, is of the essence. The position is next organically linked to the sequence of the cards being dealt, and therefore the blackjack hands. The degree of certainty for a busted hand depends, indirectly proportionately, to the position of the player (the lexicographic index of the sequence). That's the main reason why the blackjack dealer has the best position at the table (lexicographic sequence). One cannot apply here the probability of the binomial distribution because of the fixed direction of the card dealing. The game would be a lot fairer if the dealing of the cards would be like in holdem poker. In poker, every player will be the first, the second, … , the last hand, … , and again … , in every game. The poker strategy is different from an early hand to a late hand. The blackjack player, unfortunately, can't change the hand position or sequence… other than moving to another table…
