Should I Double Down on 11 in Blackjack?

By John Grochowski on Tuesday October 9, 2018

Blackjack basic strategy includes a number of decisions that can give a player second and third thoughts. One of those comes when you have a two-card 11 and the dealer has a 10-value card face up. Basic strategy calls for you to double down — you make a second bet equal to your first, then get just one more card on the draw. That second bet against a strong dealer card is what gives players pause. One reader emailed me to ask, “Why should I double down on 11 when the dealer has a 10 up? It seems to me the dealer is trending to a really good hand, with a 20 likely and possibly a blackjack. This seems like spitting into the wind.” The potential dealer blackjack is not a factor in your hit/stand decision. At nearly all U. S. tables, the dealer will check for blackjack. If he has an Ace down, that stops the hand and you never get a chance to make your second bet. That leaves 12 other card denominations, four of which are 10 values that give the dealer a 20. If the down card is 7, 8 or 9, the dealer has a lesser standing hand, and if its 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6, the dealer must take a second hit and could bust. When all that is taken into account, your average profit per hand is larger if double than if you stand. Exact figures vary slightly depending on the composition of the hand. If you stand in a six-deck game, average profits are 11.86 cents per dollar wagered if you have 6-5, 11.79 with 7-4, 17.79 with 8-3, or 11.70 with 9-2. If you double, average profits are 17.85 cents per dollar of your original wager if you have 6-5, 17.84 with 7-4, 17.69 with 8-3 or 17.39 with 9-2. When you double down, you risk losing double your original bet, but with 11 vs. 10, you win double your bet more often, giving you a higher average profit.

What does a 5 point martingale do?

The Sport Interchange 5 Point Breastplate, also known as the 5 Point Martingale, uses 5 attachments so as to prevent the saddle slipping rearwards.

Description

The Sport Interchange 5 Point Breastplate, also known as the 5 Point Martingale, uses 5 attachments so as to prevent the saddle slipping rearwards. The five point breastplate is fitted with sheepskin padded side panels which sit on the shoulder, which allows freedom of movement as well as comfort for the horse whilst they are working. The 5 point breastplate has the same three connections as a three point breastplate, but has an additional two straps that connect to the saddle and it is these additional connections that prevent backwards and sideways movement of the saddle, especially when riding at speed or jumping. In fact the 5 point breastplate was designed for use by Eventers. This Top Quality Bespoke Sport Interchange 5 Point Martingale / five point Breastplate is the next generation of Breastplates affording you ultimate flexibility. They feature softly padded breastplate parts with a huge choice of colour piping and stitching (or can be purchased plain) and incorporate fully breathable neoprene padding. The straps feature the better design of elastic inserts, rather than full elastic. This is by far the best solution as the plain elastic 5 point breastplates can lose elasticity over time. The clips make attaching and detaching the Martingale really easy. They can be completely removed and the martingale detached without having to undo the girth. All parts attach to the base part via solid brass (chrome plated) snap hooks which are more expensive than the lighter zinc snap hooks. All sheepskin parts are removable for ease of cleaning. Fully co-ordinate your look with a Pink Equine Colour piped Bridles and Head Collar.
