1. Always assume the dealers card that you dont see is a 10.
Therefore dealer shows a 8 and the other is flipped, you play your hand as if he has 18. Your goal now becomes to beat 18.

2. Always split Aces

3. Dealer showing a 5 or 6 are a good thing for you ALWAYS.

Theres tons of other stuff but Ill let the more experienced players come in and give their insight.

I been wanting to go to AC myself, how long you planning on staying?
maybe a day, couple days or a weekend...Possible NT summit for the grown-ups....sorta...kinda?

I wont say im pro but when i studied bj no mo i was really really good i can count at a moderate pace. For ecook U can't bring that to the table no extraneous helpeven though its sold at the casino. Okay for op r U from md cuz I'm down to go. In advanced sorry for poor grammar. Never ever get drunk okay. If the dealers up cards r 4,5,6 he is most likely to bust ok its around 35 percent so always double. Learn basic strat okay never break it. Don't hit past 17 double on 9,10,11 unless he has an ace or ten there is so much stuff to cover nt summit man I wanna go to nj with ppl who
R good not with my tard friends I'll on an iphone I'll post more later oh and take an amount ud be okayto lose go with ppl so u don't do dumb stuff

Oh dont play on tables that pay 6:5 or h17 that means hit on soft 17, I can't stress taking ppl so u don't take out all ur money if the dealer has an ace take insurance here's how it works u bet ten right and the dealers up card is and ace you bet half so five, if she has bj u lose the ten but u get ten cuz insurance pays two to one always take insurance it hedges agains risk cuz remember ten Val cards are the most on the deck 1/4 th oh u can only bet half the original bet so u cant put like 100 down but plz use insurance and If tables dot have it don't PLAY, also drinks are free but don't play drunk. Don't be nervous cuz uve never played b4. Split 8s and aces remember 5,6 r the highest bust cards for the dealer so dbl and I know a lot o new comers that are scared to go to 17 and stop at 14 and 15 go all the way till 17 trust me basic strat charts are calculated by algorithms so follow them think about it a 3 for dealer up card has like a 15 percent chance to bust youd be a foul to stop pm me for specifics good luck

Basic strategy is simple. Assume the dealers down card is a ten, and act accordingly. To play like a pro you should pay 2 deck or even 1 deck and avoid the 8 deck shoe and the automatic shuffle. Counting cards is hard, the easiest strategy is to basically give all cards of 9 or higher a +1 and all cards below 7 a -1 value. So as the you get into the deck if you are at +8 you know that there are more little cards left then big cars. Or if you are at -8 there are more big cards then little cards.

So say for example you have a 15 and your cant is -10. You know that there are 10 more big cards than small cards in the deck so you might stay on something you would normally hit.

^^^^ insurance isn't always appropriate I know a lot of website and pro bj players say its bad but if you can keep track of the count and tens it isn't so bad

This is kind of obvious but always have a limit before you play. If you lose it all in a couple hands do not go take out more cash just because you wanted to stay longer.
