Filed Under Blackjack | Leave a Comment
The favorable rules of Blackjack help you cut the house edge. The base figure of calculating the house edge is the number of decks the house deals in. A single deck game is most favorable to the player as it offers no advantage to the casino. The more the number of decks more is the house edge. During promotion, Casinos pay one hand for every 2. This cuts the house edge by 2.2% which is highly favorable for the player.
Another favorable rule, now extinct in American casinos is early surrender. It cuts the house edge by 0.6%. A very common rule, though not correctly used
is DAS where double down is allowed after splitting a pair. It lowers the house edge by 0.13%.One should also make use of the Late Surrender rule that cuts the house edge by 0.07%. It lets the player surrender the hand and give up half the bet on the first two cards when the dealer checks for the blackjack.
