Betting Expert Techniques

Part of how to play blackjack includes knowing when the right times are to hit or stand. You can consider hitting when you have an 11 or 12 but think about the value of the dealer’s face-up card. A high-value card could suggest the dealer might get another high-value one that can place one’s hand at 18 or higher. The odds of winning blackjack against the dealer will vary on how the dealer’s initial card works. Meanwhile, you can double down if you feel you have a good shot at winning. With Classic Blackjack with Sweetheart 16™, you can double down on 9, 10, or 11 should you wish to do so.

You could also split if you have two cards of the same value and are like one another. This option is appealing if you have two high-value cards that could result in two high-ranking hands, but you could still risk getting low-value cards on those split hands. You cannot split 10-value cards that aren’t alike. You can’t split a king and 10, but you can split two kings. You can also place an insurance bet if the dealer’s face-up card is an ace. This option offers a 2:1 payout if the dealer’s hand is a blackjack.
