The logic for doubling down against a dealer 6 in a single-deck game when the rules specify S17 is that the dealer breaks a half percent more often (compared to a double- and multi-deck game) and, therefore, doubling becomes the better play compared to standing (even though the margin is very small).

Read More »One of the hands that blackjack players sometimes misplay is soft 19. This is a hand that totals 19 and contains an ace counted as 11. Examples of soft 19 hands are A-8 and A-3-5. The reason the above hands are classified as “soft” 19 is because the strategy for playing them is different from a hand that totals 19 and either doesn’t contain an Ace (e.g., 10-9), or, if an Ace is present, it is counted as 1 (e.g., 5-9-A-4). (These are known as “hard” 19 hands, because if you hit them, they can break. By contrast, a “soft” hand cannot break if it you hit just one time.)

Read More »In a double- or multi-deck game, when the rules are H17 you double down against a dealer 6 upcard whereas if it’s S17 you stand. When the live blackjack dealer must hit her soft 17, she will bust 3.4% more frequently compared to when she must stand. This makes doubling down against a weak dealer 6 upcard in an H17 game better than standing. The logic for doubling down against a dealer 6 in a single-deck game when the rules specify S17 is that the dealer breaks a half percent more often (compared to a double- and multi-deck game) and, therefore, doubling becomes the better play compared to standing (even though the margin is very small).
