When you are dealt a pair of 9s in blackjack you have two viable playing options:

Stand with a total of 18

Split the 9s into two hands, with each hand starting with a 9

BASIC PLAYING STRATEGY

The basic playing strategy for a pair of 9s is to:

Split when the dealer’s upcard is 2 through 6 or 8, 9

Stand when the dealer’s upcard is 7, 10, or Ace.

The above strategy should be used regardless of the number of decks of cards being used and the mix of playing rules. The following color-coded chart summarizes the basic strategy for a pair of 9s. Dealer's Upcard 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 A P P P P P S P P S S

REASON FOR STRATEGY

The only reason you would split a pair of 9s is if it:

Wins you more money than standing

Loses you less money than standing

When the live blackjack dealer shows a weak 2 through 6 upcard, you are better off splitting the 9s because you’ll win more money than standing on a total of 18. (The dealer has a relative high probability of busting, and by splitting, you have the opportunity to bet more money when the dealer’s chance of busting is greatest.) When the dealer shows a 7 upcard, standing is the better play than splitting because it will win you more money. (The dealer has a good probability of having any one of four ten-value cards per deck as her down card, giving her a pat 17, which you would beat if you stood with 18.) In the case of the dealer showing an 8 upcard, you’ll win money if you stand with 18 but you’ll win even more by splitting, making the latter the better play. When the dealer shows a strong 9, 10-value, or Ace up card, your chances of winning with a pair of 9s is not very good. (Standing on 18 is a losing play but so is splitting; however, you’ll lose less money in the long run if you stand, making the latter the better play.)

RESPLITTING 9S

If the playing rules allow you to resplit the 9s, it is advantageous for you to do so. For example, if you are dealt a pair of 9s against a dealer’s 6 upcard, you should split them. Suppose on the first 9, you are dealt another 9 on the draw. You should resplit to form a third hand. If the casino allows resplits up to a total of four hands, then you should resplit again if you are dealt another 9.

SUMMARY

You will always win more or lose less if you follow the above basic playing strategy for splitting or hitting a pair of 9s. For a complete basic playing strategy for any set of playing rules, consult Chapter 3 in the Ultimate Blackjack Strategy Guide.

Why do my hips hurt when doing the splits?

There is a bursa that lies underneath the iliopsoas tendon in the front of the hip. When you're in hip flexion (a battement to the front, downward dog, the splits or, in some cases, just sitting too long), the bursa is compressed. When a bursa gets irritated and inflamed, you have bursitis.

dance-teacher.com - Ask Deb: What's Causing Hip Pain During Splits, Front Battement or ...

Q: One of my older students has pain in her right hip whenever she does a front battement or the splits, or when in downward dog. What do you think is going on?

A: My best guess is that your student probably has an inflamed bursa (a fluid-filled sac that lies between tendons and bones which reduces friction during movement). There is a bursa that lies underneath the iliopsoas tendon in the front of the hip. When you’re in hip flexion (a battement to the front, downward dog, the splits or, in some cases, just sitting too long), the bursa is compressed. When a bursa gets irritated and inflamed, you have bursitis.

To explore if your dancer has bursitis, encourage her to work on releasing and lengthening the hip flexors while temporarily stopping movement that irritates the hip. Once she’s done this, watch for possible causes of why it happened in the first place. Does she have tight hip flexors? Does she have an extra-flexible body that needs balance from stability? How well does she ground her weight through the floor?

You need to be patient with bursitis, but it is an injury in which full recovery can be achieved.
