TL;DR
Basic Strategy
The foundation of any successful blackjack approach is the use of basic strategy. This involves making statistically optimal decisions based on your hand and the dealer's upcard. Many players emphasize the importance of sticking to this strategy without deviation, as it significantly reduces the house edge [2:1],
[4:1]. Basic strategy charts are widely available and can be used to guide your decisions during play
[4:4].
Table Selection
Choosing the right table can greatly impact your chances of winning. Look for tables that offer player-friendly rules, such as those that pay 3:2 for blackjack, allow doubling down after splits, have the dealer stand on all 17s, and offer surrender options [5:2],
[5:3]. These conditions help reduce the house edge and improve your odds.
Bankroll Management
Effective bankroll management is crucial in blackjack. It's recommended to limit your bet per hand to a small percentage of your total bankroll, such as 5% [4:2]. This helps manage variance and ensures you can withstand losing streaks. Additionally, some players use betting systems like the Martingale, but these come with risks and should be approached cautiously
[5:4].
Card Counting and Advanced Techniques
While card counting can give players an edge, it's not feasible in online or RNG-based games due to constant shuffling. In live casino settings, card counting can be effective if done correctly, but it requires practice and favorable table conditions [3:1],
[4:5]. For casual players, focusing on basic strategy and good table selection is often more practical.
Comps and Rewards
Taking advantage of casino comps and rewards can offset losses and add value to your play. By using a player's club card, you can earn points for meals, rooms, and other perks, which can help balance the house edge over time [5:3],
[5:5].
In conclusion, while luck plays a role in blackjack, employing a solid strategy, choosing the right tables, and managing your bankroll effectively can enhance your chances of success.
Blackjack is a mix of skill and luck, and the right strategy can be a difference maker. Sportnaza Casino offers diverse blackjack options, but which tables offer the best odds?
Do you prefer basic strategy on blackjack, or take risks for bigger wins? Anyone here tried a live dealer blackjack at Sportnaza? What is your biggest blackjack win till date?
At Sportnaza, I stuck with basic strategies and they paid off well! What are your favorite strategies?
Learning about wagering requirements before claiming a blackjack bonus has been one of the game-changing things for me. Sportnaza's offers include fair terms. Have you gotten in a vicious loop of wagering requirements?
I've noticed that different casinos have different variants in table games. I played European blackjack at Lucky Block and wi6kr recommend everyone to go for it.
Live dealer blackjack feels incredibly engaging than RNG games. I played at TG Casino's live poker rooms, and loved how interaction with live dealers made a defining difference.
One thing I always gw check before playing blackjack is how payout speeds are at the casino. I joined Mega Dice seeing its quicker payout speeds with an exciting games list. How are Sportnaza's blackjack tables by the way?
I’ve heard people say blackjack is one of the few casino games you can “beat” with the right strategy, but I wonder if that’s realistic for casual players. I’ve been learning basic strategy, and while it’s definitely improved my game, I’m not sure I’d ever get to the point of consistent profit. Maybe it’s more about reducing losses than expecting to win in the long run. I’ve been playing both for fun and as a challenge to myself. What’s your take, skill game or still just luck in the end?
Can increase your chances for sure. Recently wrote this with the help of chatgpt and it usually works for me.
Skill definitely helps, especially with basic strategy. I check iGamingNuts for blackjack-friendly casinos, they don’t host games themselves, but they test and recommend ones with fair rules and decent payout speeds.
Yeah, you can play blackjack smart, but it ain’t magic lol. Basic strategy cuts losses and can snag some wins. I play for the challenge, and on 1win the tables run smooth, so you can actually practice without stress. Mix of skill + luck, for sure
Blackjack is one of the few casino games where strategy makes more sense. For high-stakes players, every decision matters, and you need right approach to turn the odds in your favor..
Do you stick with basic strategy, or choose more advanced ones? What is the highest stake you've ever hit?
I’ve found that TG Casino's blackjack games have solid RTP, but I prefer mix-up of strategies.
Are you looking for ""casino VIP programs"" for blackjack? I tried one at Lucky Block, and they offer amazing private high-stakes tables.
There’s something about live dealer blackjack that makes me excited. Do you like live dealers or RNG-based blackjack for high stakes?
I'm in for any casino of the payout speed is top-notch.
"Blackjack tips" are great, but mindset matters at high stakes. I've seen players at TG Casino use card counting successfully at their VIP tables, but bankroll management is the key.
Ok so I know blackjack pretty well and I even use one of those professional blackjack betting cards that tells you when to hold,stand,double etc, but it seems like every site I play on I get bill cosbied with dealer getting 3 blackjacks on a row etc so whats yalls method to win
try limiting your bet amount per hand to around 5% of your bankroll.
Ok ty
Bet as low as you are willing to sit through, or play games with lower variance (but higher house edge) like plinko and roulette.
Basic strategy, your chart is fine. Everytime the basic strategy fails you become tempted to try something else to see success, but what youre doing is already statistically ideal. I have a couple writers and I exlusively use BJ for washing
A couple writers?
Yea. I get the same BS so I just stick to washing free dailies.
Ya lol im kind of interested in the counting cards method which I know isn’t to be trusted with online but shit
This video will change your mind about trying to count online 😭 (not my content but this guy is great) https://youtu.be/vjiVpO1hlvk?si=inMCJbdeKAcQhY7e
Hey, definitely stick to basic strategy like that card you have shows. Play that and do not deviate. Smaller bet sizes will be slower but smooth your variance. Blackjack is just one of those games where you have to trust with 99.5% RTP, with consistent bet sizes and gameplay, your variance should smooth out over time.
Things to watch out for: 6:5 blackjack tables, this decreases your RTP more than you’d expect, try to stick with 3:2 blackjack tables. And most importantly make sure the blackjack version has dealer CHECK FOR 21 BEFORE your turn. Some don’t do this, and you can essentially double or split your hand while the dealer had blackjack the whole time, avoid these at all costs. Chumba’s multi-hand doesn’t check for blackjack if the dealer is showing a 10 for example, all bad!

Without counting, if you were to create an ideal strategy to simply break even, what would it be?
Only 1 possibility if you can still find a table with the following: 1 deck, blackjack pays 3 to 2, double down after splits allowed, dealer stands on soft 17, double down on any two cards and late surrender allowed, and YOU USE COMPOSITION BASED basic strategy.
If you're not counting, your best chances are to do the following:
This is probably your best route. Also, on comps, try to find a casino that’s liberal with how much they give out. They might not be the fanciest casinos/hotels, but if you include the benefits from comps and not just cash in your break even analysis, you’ll be set.
Yea martingale I win most casino visits.
Only problem is.. that day..when I do lose...
Don't play, 100% chance to break even
I guess that’s one way to look at it hahah
If you're not counting, you will lose over a long enough period of time
If your goal is to break even, you probably shouldn't play.
Blackjack, like all other casino games, has a house edge. The longer you play, the more likely you are to lose money.
...Unless you are a proficient counter and have favorable table conditions of course.
Hello everyone, I'm new to blackjack, played only once in a casino (with a little positive outcome) and now want to go back with the knowledge of the basic strategy (currently mastering it with apps and practicing with friends).
I was wondering if you guys could give me some advice on what would be the best betting strategy for the specific casino in my town - min bet is 25$, the dealer must stand on all 17s, double down after split allowed.
I have to buy chips for 300$ minimum to enter the casino (and that's the maximum I can dobecause I don'twanna lose more haha). So I would be playing with a bankroll of 300$ and minimum bets of 25$.
I was thinking of betting normally until I reach 400$ and then do the 212 strategy, but it seems a bit risky with a minimum bet of 25.
What do you guys think?
P.S.: I don't know if this would be useful, but the blackjack table is always empty so it will be only me and my friend playing
There’s really nothing that wins in the long run.
I like betting when I win add another starting bet. As soon as I lose drop straight back to starting bet.
So if I bet 10 and win it goes to 20/30/40/50 as long as the run continues
Just means if I have a good run of cards I win decent money. A bad run of 10 losers in a row costs me 100. A run or 10 wins in a row and I’m up about £4/500
Double or quit or martingale it. Also bet 300 in first hand... Try to get it up to 1000
25 , 50, 100 , 200
I recomend to try it firstly on freeslots ( in demo ), higrly recomend Mbit for this!
Firstly, it's important to remember that betting strategies cannot guarantee a win every time. The game is still based on chance and luck, so it's important to approach it with a realistic mindset.
That being said, the 212 betting system can be effective when used correctly. However, it may be too risky with a minimum bet of $25, especially if you only have a bankroll of $300. It's important to manage your bankroll carefully and not bet more than you can afford to lose.
Instead, you may want to consider a more conservative betting strategy, such as flat betting. This involves betting the same amount for each hand and can help you preserve your bankroll.
It's also important to consider the rules and variations of the game you're playing, as they can greatly affect your odds of winning. With the rules you mentioned (dealer stands on all 17s, double down after split allowed), the house edge is around 0.44%.
Finally, playing with only one other person at the table can also affect your betting strategy. With fewer players, you may have more opportunities to take advantage of favorable situations, such as doubling down or splitting.
In summary, while the 212 betting system can be effective, it may be too risky for your bankroll and minimum bet. Consider a more conservative betting strategy and be mindful of the rules and number of players at the table.
I was in a similar spot when starting out - limited bankroll and high table minimums made it tough to practice blackjack properly, just not wanting to take big risks out the gate.
Have you considered Coinpoker? I've been playing there for a while for a while., major perk is that they allow blackjack bets as low as $1, even on live dealer tables. Let's you get reps in without blowing your stack on a couple bad hands.
They also match your first couple deposits 100% which effectively doubles your bankroll. More cushion to weather downswings. And you can play at your own pace without worrying about pissed off pit bosses or dealers, ha.
Seconding Coinpoker
12 hands is such a small sample size, and if you're just playing BS and not counting, it doesn't make much of a difference.
Flat bet the minimum or just do what you feel, it won't really make much of a difference.
Don’t encourage a guy to make flat bets of $25, with a bankroll of $300. That’s irresponsible 😂😂
Very true. Probably should have told him to martingale!
redditcasinos.com for best blackjaaack boyssss
Best time to play with the (real players) is between 12:30 am and 4 am... Stay away from the kids and goofballs!
There are 3 best strategies. In order they are as follows:
Option 1. You should make money over the long term.
Option 2. You expect to lose, but overall it will be less than option 3.
Option 3. You will slowly lose money the more you play.
Good Luck at the Tables :-)
Thanks xD
Blackjack is all about skill and strategy, and Sportaza Casino offers multiple opportunities to test your luck.
Do you follow blackjack tips like basic strategy, or betting systems? What is the biggest winning streak you've hit at blackjack tables?
Anyone use betting systems like Martingale? I’ve tried it, but progressive betting can be riskier, too. Instant Casino's tables are flexible betting options, which make things easier to test.
Anyone of you tried card counting online? It's absolutely harder, but knowing when the deck is hot can still help. Mega Dice’s live dealer poker setup caught my attention. Anyone else tried it?
What do you choose in live dealer blackjack vs. AI-based games? I choose Sportnaza's live dealer blackjack. What do you prefer and why?
Live dealer games definitely make a huge difference. RNG-based games also make you feel robotic. Lucky Block offers a great live dealer setup, and I'm happy with the interaction.
Basic strategy is definitely the key. I keep a strategy chart open while playing, and it helps me avoid costly mistakes. TG Casino offers a solid selection of both classic and live dealer games, which are worth for practicing.
Hi everyone, newbie here
​
I've been reading up on blackjack strategies and came across the basic strategy charts. From my understanding, it's imperative that any blackjack player, even a casual, should learn it.
but why? the house still holds the edge by 1%, right? if that is the case, why it it necessary to learn a losing strategy?
Basic can lower the house advantage to .26%, learn to count and you can get an advantage.
Well it would depend on the rules, I know of maybe one game with rules that good
Playing 100 hand per hour at $5 with, say, .5% edge, that is like $2.50 per hour average loss. Cheap entertainment, doesn't even pay for the dealer, the casino is kinda losing already even if you are too. Plus you then learn card counting and come out ahead.
You lose more slowly..
/thread
😂😂😂😂
Is this guy serious right now
I honestly can't tell. There definitely has been a significant increase in trolls on various gambling related subreddits lately though.
You add counting knowledge on top of basic strategy knowledge, suddenly you have the edge on a few high value hands per shoe.
Before someone says it, I’m well aware there is no such thing as a winning betting strategy.
However, I have casino night planned with the fellas in a few days. Looking for some recommendations on how to switch up my usual play!
My favorite is to increase my bet when the count is high, and decrease it when it's low or negative.
Put all your money on red, when the dealer says sir this is blackjack cut them off and say let it ride. When they try to explain that the roulette table is over there cut them off again and take half the chips off the table and pronounce double down. When they say sir please leave your being disruptive cut them off again and say fine I’ll take my business elsewhere but you just lost one of your best customers and my money should play as well as anyone else here. As security is dragging you out yell about how all the games are rigged and your owed your mega millions jackpot from the lottery ticket you bought last year. As the security is beating you to shut you up for exposing their horrible business practices you just go limp. Sue for being assault by security and cash in big time. Works every time 60% of the time.
This is perfection in a bet strategy
If it’s a bet on me being annoying as fuck then I’m going all in.
I usually start with table max if I win I take off half my bet and continue till I hit min bet then repeat 🔁 either going to be a fantastic night or a really shitty one 🥰
Table max you say? Here’s a pair of 2s.
Jesus how long are you able to last in a place with a 1-50 spread? In low table min shoe games I'll do 1 - 2x15 but even that feels like just asking to get backed off.
It's doable. But it's just a troll post. Waiting until TC=7 is inadvisable though because it's so rare. Usually you'd want to top out at 3 or 4.
Old AP Pro regularly trolls and roasts poppies on this subreddit lol.
if you go 1-30 you just have to leave before they actually get to throw you out.
Drink 1: 1 unit
Drink 2-5: 2-5 units
Drink 5+: hey, dealer, I fucked your mom
Whatcha talkin’ bout Jack?
I’ve been Practicing basic strategy for a week now and I want to try my hand at online gambling. Would basic strategy help me win? Also recommendation for online sites to play blackjack for money?
NO. Basic strategy guarantees all "basic strategy players" lose in the long run. Only card counting, and only if you do it right, can guarantee winning in the long run.
Basic strategy is good, but it alone won't help you win, just loose less, to really win you need to start counting cards or some other form of ap
Lmao lose slower sounds right. I'd rather say it's best chance to win. Keyword: CHANCE. No guarantees!!! It's gambling! I do basic strategy 99% of the time haha.
Also if you value your time and money, don't play online!!! It's rigged. It's my belief the software games give the player better chance to win money than live dealer.
All I do is basic strategy since I like to socialize with the other players. It’s the players vs the dealer. We’re all in to bust the dealer. Counting takes time but not worth it because of so many distractions in a casino. Rather play have fun and on good night make some $$$
Basic strategy means you will lose about .5 cents for every dollar you bet. It gives you the best possible odds without counting cards. You cannot beat the game and long term you will lose money.

Key Strategies for Winning at Blackjack
Basic Strategy: Familiarize yourself with basic blackjack strategy charts, which provide the optimal play for every possible hand against the dealer's upcard. This includes when to hit, stand, double down, or split.
Card Counting: While it requires practice, card counting can give you an edge by keeping track of high and low cards that have been dealt. This helps you adjust your bets and playing strategy based on the remaining cards in the deck.
Bankroll Management: Set a budget for your gambling session and stick to it. Avoid chasing losses and know when to walk away, whether you're winning or losing.
Avoid Insurance Bets: Insurance bets may seem tempting, but they generally have a high house edge and are not recommended for long-term play.
Choose the Right Table: Look for tables with favorable rules, such as those that pay 3:2 for blackjack instead of 6:5, and those that allow you to double down on any two cards.
Practice: Use free online blackjack games to practice your strategy without risking real money. This will help you become more comfortable with the game and improve your decision-making skills.
Recommendation: Start by mastering basic strategy before moving on to more advanced techniques like card counting. This foundational knowledge will significantly improve your chances of winning in the long run.
