Hard Hitting Strategies for Blackjack

Video Transcript

I’m Joe Marshall with Expertvillage.com and today we are going to learn to win at blackjack. We are now going to go over when you want to hit with hard totals. This first base player here has a hard total of thirteen against the dealer’s up card of eight. It falls in the middle here, seven through ace, if the dealer has anything in between that, which he does because it is an eight. You want to hit anything between twelve and sixteen. Since thirteen is between that we want to go ahead and hit it. And that gives us nineteen so we want to stay. The reason we want to stay and not continue hitting is because anything seventeen through twenty-one, which eighteen falls in that category, you never want to hit on a hard total. If the dealer shows a two through three, anything twelve or less you want to hit. If you have eleven or less you always want to hit because it is impossible for you to bust by taking a hit. You can only improve your hand. Also, all the charts are important to memorize.
