Thanks for making this video, too many other ones just list the rules mindlessly without any explanation, this is a good insight into what's behind the basic strategy rules. Obviously your strategy from this video is "less perfect", but I still liked how it covers the majority of hands with reasoning that is easy to remember.
Basic strategy chart isn't that hard to memorize. I got it solid in my brain in a few weeks. If you're only doubling against a 4, 5, and 6, you're missing out on extra money. With a 9 yes, but on a ten or eleven, should be doubling more. You'll win more. And if math is your thing, just go ahead and learn to count cards.
I will be doing a video on counting cards! Personally I think counting cards isn't worth it because you need a very high initial bank roll in order to make the odds any different, and it ruins the fun of the game for me. Also, memorization is fine, but this is a channel about math.
The first video in this series was great, but I'm not a fan of this one. First, you straight up said something false. You don't get the 3 to 2 payout on a ace and 10 value card after splitting aces, you would only get that payout on your FIRST two cards. I was hoping you were going to break down the mathematical reason why basic strategy works, but instead you just suggest your audience not follow basic strategy. So, this will lead to more money lost for people who actually listen to you. You ARE obviously very good at math, so I'm sure that's why you find this easier to learn than to look at a basic strategy chart, but speaking as a layman, I can guarantee this strategy is not easier than simply bringing your basic strategy chart to the table with you. So, following basic strategy would be both easier and would result in less money lost. Very disappointing!
@@themathematicsofvice1652 Thank you for reading and responding to my comment! I especially like that you did that for a critical comment. It says a lot about your character!
Some of the worst BJ advice I’ve ever seen. Probably at least a 4% HA playing this way. Should be playing aggressively versus 2-6 and conservatively vs 7-A. 2-6 should be doubling or splitting nearly every available time.

Pro tip screen shot the tips and make them flash cards.
Sounds like basic blackjack strategy
Correct! Thus the title of the video

Given your rules, you will always lose in the long run 🤦
