Many serious casino gamblers tend not take the game of blackjack too seriously, especially when played in a casino. One of the biggest problems that a player who comes to test their wits and their skills against the odds of blackjack is that too many other players who are playing for fun can have a very direct influence on how the run of cards will play out, and cost a whole table full of players hundreds if not thousands of dollars as a result of totally reckless play on a $5.00 bet. Experienced players can spend months studying the strategies of blackjack, and how they can get an edge, only to see their theories go up in smoke due to the stupidity of others. That is the reason why you might not see too many serious players gambling at blackjack on an open table at a Casino.

That would mean that the first and probably most fundamentally incorrect strategy in playing blackjack is not to test your skills on a land casino, but instead to focus on playing online. Any other strategic battles that you will have will be against the unrelenting and unforgiving online casino software.

One of the major advantages of playing online is that every hand that you play is saved and can be analyzed later. Someone who sets themselves a target of winning at blackjack and consistently, needs to learn all the strategies of the game, as well as how to separate the incorrect ones from the correct ones.

The major mistakes that players make generally stem from a lack of self confidence or even false bravado. The point of blackjack is to beat the dealer, and not necessarily get the highest score. A player who takes time to study online statistics will rapidly discover that more hands are won by players who have stuck on a hand ranging from twelve to sixteen than have drawn on it, especially if the dealer’s first card is a six downwards to two. In online casinos, the dealer usually only plays with one pack, and shuffles after every hand so if there are so few low cards around, then the chances are that the high cards are due to come along, and it is highly preferable that they go to the dealer, even though the temptation is always to try and improve your hand.

The truth is that the majority of players adopt the incorrect strategy of “assuming”. They assume that they “stayed” on a hand of twelve, and the dealer drew a nine and won, then the same thing will happen next time round. In blackjack, there are no consistencies and every hand played and every sequence of hands is infinite.

Only the player sets the consistencies, by developing their own set of correct strategies and sticking to them no matter what.

These strategies are surprisingly basic and consist of the following rules:

• Never draw on cards twelve to sixteen.
• Never double down when the dealer has nine, ten or ace.
• Never split sevens or eights when the dealer has a nine or ten
• Split nines when the dealer has a card between three and seven.

And last but not least, regard every time you sit down to play as a session, and if you can earn 10% profit on the money you set aside as your stake for that session, then walk away a happy man. Never try to recover money that you lost in a previous session during a current one. In blackjack as in life, history should be left alone.
