    Basic Strategy says NEVER EVER buy insurance. Table rule states that dealer STANDS on all 17's........good for the player. Also dealer pays 3:2 on blackjack good for the player.
    Remember prior to playing ALWAYS look at the table rules. NEVER EVER play a 6:5 blackjack table. As an example on a $100 bet a 3:2 table will pay $150 while a 6:5 table pays
    only $120.

      The insurance comment depends. For the small fraction who are counting, and for the even smaller who are doing it right, deviation says you take insurance on a positive 3 or higher true count

      Not in Vegas some dealers have to hit on a soft 17 meaning you could get fucked by black jack

  • @eddie-xi6ls
    @eddie-xi6ls ปีที่แล้ว +55

    At 14:00 the second hand is player 12 vs dealer 3. Basic Strategy calls to hit and dealer says he never hits. The reason for hitting is that there are 9 cards that will make a hand for the
    player while only 4 cards that will bust.

      there are only the 6, 7, 8 and 9 to give the player a winning hand, when he hits with 12. the 5 ight give you a push. still reasonable to hit.
      This video is a complete bs. "the book is a...the book is a..." "last time I was in Vegas the dealer had a hand because they did that..." - these amateurs don´t understand the slightest bit.

    It's relevant to note for all aspiring card counters that a positive or negative count only informs how to play certain hands. MOST of the time you still play basic strategy because there's nothing else to do, and you therefore must be able to play basic perfectly. And doubling a ten against a dealer's ace (2:25) is so risky I'd do it only on a highly positive deck.

    The book was made using computer simulations which depend on a full or mostly full table to "play out" correctly.... a person didnt "write the book" a computer simulated an uncountable number of hands and then recorded which moves won the most. This chart or "basic strategy" is the result of these simulations.
    Also how can the dealer be showing 12 to hit 12vs12?
    I feel like these dudes just get really lucky at the casino and are blaming the book for it.
