2. One of the basic blackjack tips is to check if casino allows you to surrender:

a) Early Surrender: allows you to give up or surrender one half of

your bet before the dealer looks at his hole card and you've taken a

hit. Good for situations like your 15 or 16 versus the dealer's

exposed 10.'

b) Late Surrender: a variation of the above. Allows you to surrender

one-half of your bet after the you have taken one card or more, prior

to the dealer exposing his/her hole card.

c) Blackjack paid at 2-1: reduces the casino's edge by 2.2%. Not

commonly found.

d) Double after split (DAS): commonly applied rule variation that is

very helpful to players.

e) Dealer stands on soft 17: only a .2% help for the player, but good

nonetheless.

f) Resplit of Aces: allows you to save a split ace hand by splitting

again. This same applies to other splits as well.

3. Double down on two card combinations totaling: 9 if the dealer's up

card is 3, 4, 5 or 6, 10 if the dealer's up card is anything but a 10

or an Ace, 11 if the dealer's up card is anything but an Ace.

4. Never split 10's.

5. Always split Aces and 8's, no matter what the dealer's showing card is.

6. Always stand on hard 17 or higher if the dealer's showing card is 7

or lower.

7. Always stand on hard 13 through 16 if the dealer's showing card is

6 or lower, but hit if the dealer's showing card is 7 through Ace.

9. Always stand on hard 12 or higher if the dealer is showing 4, 5 or 6.

10. Hit a soft 17 against a dealer's 10.
