Here we recommend basic strategy for playing two deck / double deck blackjack games.
We have reviewed most two deck blackjack games, accessible from the left navigation. The
two
deck blackjack strategy card does not guarantee that you will win, but if
you follow it closely you could potentially reduce the edge that the house has against you.
Using the cards is simple. First of all determine whether the dealer in the
game you are playing is forced to hit or stand on soft 17, and select one of the
cards on this basis. Look up your hand value on the vertical axis, and the
dealer's up-card on the horizontal axis. The intersection of the two lines
recommends your next action, depending on whether you hold a soft or hard total
(where soft hands include any Ace).
Here is an explanation of the symbols used in the cards:
- H - You Hit
- S - You Stand
- D - Double up (if game allows), else hit
- Ds - Double up (if game allows), else stand
- P - Split your hand
- P/H - Split (if game allows) if doubling after split,
else hit
- R/H - Surrender (if game allows), else hit
- R/S - Surrender (if game allows), else stand
- R/P - Surrender (if game allows), else split
