Blackjack Basic Strategy  


5, 6, 7 or 8

Other than a pair of 2s, a 5 is the lowest two-card total a player can possibly have. Therefore they have no option in this scenario other than to hit no matter what up-cards the dealer is showing. By taking another card, there is no way that a player can bust. The only way a player can hope to win with these weak totals is by waiting for the dealer to go bust.

To be successful at Blackjack it is vital that a player learn all of the Basic Strategy plays thoroughly. Remember that Basic Strategy has evolved in a bid to gain an advantage over the house. This advantage is minimal and can only be used for financial gain unless played to the letter. As little as a 5% divergence from the Basic Strategy will ensure that the odds are back with the casino. A player should never rely on luck, intuition or hunches, and should stick doggedly to the given mathematical proofs.
