Today’s date is 12-30- 2015. I’ve always asked myself, ” Is there more than just basic strategy ? ”
Double deck is my game, the only one I can find without continuous shufflers. Thankyou for this info.
I just started playing BlackJack 6D, with Surrender, Stand on all 17’s, Hit on 16, BJ pays 3:2, Insurance pays 2:1. Could you give me a Betting Plan? Minimum is $10. I’m usually willing to spend $50. How should i bet?
If the amount you are willing to spend is only $50 and the minimum is $10, your betting plan is quite simple. Make minimum bets. You cannot afford anything else, and your session will often be very short if you lose a few hands early.
More concerning is the very idea of a “betting plan”. No progression betting system can change the house edge. Unless you are counting cards, betting the minimum is always going to be the cheapest option for playing the game. Bet more if it increases your enjoyment, but realize that it will cost you more money in the form of bigger eventual losses. Of course, card counting can change all that, but you aren’t ready for that yet based on bankroll and your question.
Hey Ken, many thanks for all you do. Could you point me to where I can find a basic strategy variations matrix for all of the same parameters you listed on this page except that the dealer stands on a soft 17?(Double Deck, H17, Da2, no das, no surrender)
I could see this being a one-time advantage play for a mid-sized high-roller who is prepared to lose upwards of $250,000 in a single night of well-feigned intoxication, and then utilize a pre-negotiated/flat-rate lawyer to litigate the marker loss. Similar to a loss-rebate strategy.
Your question asks specifics that probably aren’t relevant to what you really want to know…
Are the random number generators in my trainer and those in a casino video blackjack machine “similar”?
Well, yes and no. They are probably very different in the actual programming, because there are many ways to code an RNG. But yes, they both provide reasonably high quality streams of random numbers.
What you likely really want to know is how your results will compare when playing in a casino compared to on my site’s trainer.
No one can answer that ahead of time, because it comes down to the random results.
If you are luckier on my site, you’ll do better there. If you are luckier in the casino, your results will be better in the casino.
Both my trainer and the casino’s games use the same rules and conditions. What happens after that is luck, good or bad.
The short term results in either place will not give you ANY information about what will happen next time you play.
There is one frequent difference between my trainer and video blackjack in a casino. Many casino video blackjack games pay only even money for blackjack. If that is the case, the screen will likely say “Blackjack pays 2 for 1”. That means they take your 1 unit bet and pay you back 2 units if you get a blackjack. That’s the same as even money, or a “1 to 1” payout. This rule is terrible, and will substantially increase your losses.
Usually, the large multi-player video blackjack games do pay the normal 3:2 for blackjack, but be sure to check the rules on the machine you want to play. Most of the single player vbj machines will have the worse rule.
Algunos de los principales casinos de Macao sólo permiten rendirse cuando el crupier tiene un As. No hay carta de mano. Y a menudo le recuerdan al jugador que tome el dinero par. ¿Cuál es la estrategia para tales reglas si usted tiene 8-8 o 7-7 cuando el distribuidor tiene un 10? Gracias.
Como el Motor de Estrategia no tiene una opción para "Rendición temprana, pero no contra el As" (¡todavía!), tiene que mezclar y combinar los gráficos.
Aquí está la estrategia para 6D, H17, ES, Sin Carta de Hoyo: https://www.blackjackinfo.com/blackjack-basic-strategy-engine/?numdecks=6&soft17=h17&dbl=all&das=yes&surr=es&peek=no
Ignore el consejo de rendirse contra un As, ya que no está permitido. (O puedes crear una segunda carta con No Rendirse y usar la columna As de esa).
Para sus preguntas específicas: El crupier tiene una carta de 10, no hay carta oculta, y se le permite rendirse...
Deberías ceder las siguientes manos (como se ve en el gráfico enlazado más arriba):
(7,7) vs Ten
(8,8) vs Ten
Duro 14 contra Diez
Duro 15 contra Diez
Duro 16 contra Diez
Además, Hard 16 contra 9.
first i want to apologyze about the thing concerning my security, it was just bullshit. i was trolling a bit, my country is not dangerous, i love colombia. but some people get angry at you when you play BS. i have another question, here in my city there is a side bet which you gamble to get a pair. if you get a mix pair(red and black) like a 6 of diamonds and a 6 of spikes they pay 6 times your side bet. if you get a color pair(red and red or black and black) like a 6 of diamonds and a 6 of hearts they play 12 times your side bet and if your ge a perfect pair(the same card) like a 6 of diamonds and a 6 of diamonds they pay you 25 times your side bet. my question is it worth it?
Like most side bets, it’s quite expensive. The house edge in six decks on the paytable you describe is 5.47%.
My advice about side bets is very simple: Ignore them.
Are there further lessons that deal with alternative counting strategies? Im going to check anyway, just wanted to say thanks for systematizing what i already knew, looking forward to reading more
Acabo de ver la información, y un fragmento de UTube en "Speed Count", donde uno sólo cuenta las cartas más (2-7) jugado durante la mano, y luego resta el número de manos jugadas para obtener un recuento en ejecución. Por supuesto, recomiendan encarecidamente su sistema, afirmando que la ventaja del jugador con este sistema es de 1%. ¿Cuáles son los niveles de aumento de las apuestas? ( Supongo que como usan 2-7 como KO y REKO, uno empieza con -2 x [número de manos] )
He intentado utilizar REKO. Mantengo el recuento sin problemas en partidas de 2 barajas, pero me cuesta mantenerlo en partidas de 6 barajas porque no quiero quedarme sentado mirando las cartas durante todo el juego.
No soy un fan de Speed Count, a menos que realmente sientas que no puedes manejar nada más potente. Speed Count es bastante más débil que KO o Hi-Lo, y cuando estás jugando una partida de seis mazos realmente extiende el número de manos que debes jugar antes de alcanzar la legendaria "larga racha". Mi recomendación es seguir trabajando para mantener la cuenta usando KO. Me cuesta creer la ventaja de jugador de 1% que se afirma que se obtiene con Speed Count, excepto en condiciones muy buenas y con una gran dispersión de apuestas. KO y Hi-Lo raramente pueden alcanzar ese nivel en la práctica, siendo de 0,5% a 0,7% una ventaja más típica en una partida de seis barajas. ¿Funciona Speed Count? Sí, pero su ventaja será menor y necesitará más manos para alcanzar una alta probabilidad de adelantarse a la varianza del juego.
Not true, Black Jack is a game of 2 no more no less. It’s you and the dealer. Whatever anyone else does, shouldn’t affect you. Unless you were counting.
Puede permanecer en la sombra y contar, pero cuando el crupier llegue a cierto punto del zapato, tendrá que esperar a que éste se acabe. Así, si estás viendo una partida de 2 barajas, cuando aparezca media baraja en el montón de descuento, no se te permitirá jugar la baraja y media restante.
Llamaste al casino para preguntar si podías contar cartas. Eres un idiota.

I am unaware of any free sources for 2D S17 indexes. They are available on my Advanced Card Set if you are interested.

Post script –

How do casino BJ machines compare to your site – similar random # generators, speeds, etc?

Its simple…. you are prob playing a game with even money black jack
