| Don't challenge the mathematical advantage of the casino. You cannot eliminate or change it and you don't need to. It is not your adversary unless you choose to make it that way and you will lose - slowly but surely. It is relatively small considering the sums of money that can be won or lost in a very short space of time. Think of it as a necessary and acceptable contribution or a tax towards paying the cost of the gaming equipment and salaries of the casino personnel. Remember, you pay it if and when you win only. | | Lay bet pays 19-41 on the 4 and 10, 19-31 on the 5 and 9, and 19-25 on the 6 and 8. Bets on the 4 and 10 should be in increments of $40, bets on the 5 and 9 should be increments of $30, and bets on the 6 and 8 increments of $24, so that the 5% commission will be divisible by $1. | | Under the assumption that the dealer doesn't have a blackjack and that he stands on a soft 17, if he has a 2 and you have a 9 and 3, your best option would be to double down. |
