If the decision is made to play at a casino or any other gambling house, the first thing to always keep in mind is that, just like all other house games, Blackjack incorporates a “house edge”. This is a statistical advantage built into the game and results from the dealer’s position relative to the player. The player that “busts” (accumulates a total of over 21) loses anyhow, even if the dealer does the same consequently.
Nonetheless, using basic strategy and having just the average luck, the player will lose less than 1% of the total amount wagered. At the end of the day, this is very favorable to the player compared to other casino games. For players who deviate from the basic strategy through ignorance, the loss rate is much greater.
Extra attention must be taken to house rules printed on the table. An example of such a rule is, if the dealer has to “hit” (i.e. draw another card) if he or she has a “soft 17” (i.e. an ace and a 6). A label that reads H17 means that the dealer must draw another card, while an S17 means that the dealer can stand. An S17 rule benefits the player as it decreases the house edge by 0.2%.
More tips like the above have been included in this book and it is strongly recommended that you acquaint yourself with the game, before visiting a gambling establishment and finding out what this is all about the hard way.
