Blackjack Strategy Analysis
Every blackjack strategy has a playing component and a betting component. Basic strategy has been the playing component for almost all blackjack strategies. While there are numerous betting components that range anywhere from flat betting to high risk progression betting, the best betting component has been adjusting your bets based on precise card counting. However, casinos have been using tactics to make these traditional blackjack strategy components obsolete. Here's why:
Playing Component Problems
If you play perfect basic strategy with flat betting, the house will only have a slight edge. But playing perfect basic strategy is no longer practical in a casino today. The days when you only needed to learn one set of playing decisions from a simple basic strategy chart are long gone. Casinos vary table rules and number of card decks used which results in subtle changes to basic strategy with each variation. For example, if the dealer has to hit soft seventeen; if you can split aces more than once; if you can split other pairs up to four times; if you can surrender; if you can double down on any two cards; if blackjack pays less than 3 to 2; or if the dealer uses one, two, four, six, or eight decks will all have an impact on basic strategy. Even in the same casino, you will see tables with different combinations of rules and deck numbers. So it now takes numerous basic strategy charts to show all of the decisions to play blackjack. This paves the way for confusion, incorrect play, and loss of focus on the betting component.
Betting Component Problems
For years, the best way to win at blackjack has been to use a blackjack strategy with a betting component derived from accurate card counting. But casinos have been adding strong anti card counting measures that have created an environment in which precise card counting is no longer feasible. Some of these measures include burn cards, early shuffle, multiple decks, and continuous shuffling machines. Not only do these measures adversely affect the betting component, but they also erode the flexibility that precise card counting can give to playing basic strategy. Expert card counters have long used the mix of undealt cards to deviate from basic strategy regarding splits, double downs, insurance, and hitting, standing, or surrendering on the bad hands. Even if you find that rare blackjack table where you can count cards effectively, a casino will remove you from the premises if you start to win. It does not make much sense to spend many hours perfecting a blackjack strategy and then not be able to win with it.
Blackjack Strategy Solution
Hot Streak Blackjack Strategy is an excellent replacement for a strategy of trying to play perfect basic strategy with either flat betting or betting based on accurate card counting. Hot Streak Blackjack Strategy has a playing component that consolidates basic strategy into one universal playing chart that can be used anywhere, regardless of the combination of table rules and deck numbers. This will make you play the tough hands the same way each time and not chase after the odds. You will then be playing on automatic, just like the dealer, and focusing on the betting component. The betting component for Hot Streak Blackjack Strategy is a special no card counting betting technique that uses low risk win/loss trend progressions to exploit hot streaks, minimize cold streaks, and profit from stretches where you alternate wins and losses. Blending these two strategy components together will give you a solid overall strategy to win at blackjack.
Rethinking the Odds
Odds for all blackjack strategies are based on playing an infinite number of hands which, of course, nobody can do. This means that if you play for years using basic strategy with flat betting which gives the house a slight edge, it is not a sure thing that you will lose an amount based on that small percentage. Likewise, if you play for years where you have a slight edge by using basic strategy with betting based on precise card counting, you are not guaranteed to win anything. Your success will be determined by whether or not you get more than your share of expected results. For instance, if you have been counting cards and increase the bet because you know the deck is rich in high cards, and you are dealt more hands with blackjack and twenty than expected, you can make a profit. But if you are dealt fewer hands with blackjack and twenty than expected, you will be contributing to the next casino construction project. In addition to fighting these long term odds, Hot Streak Blackjack Strategy takes advantage of the actual results in your current sessions, both good and bad. In other words, it optimizes the trends that lady luck throws your way.
Summary
Hot Streak Blackjack Strategy has made basic playing strategy simple again and card counting a betting option to forget. Investing $14.95 in your blackjack future may be the best bet you ever make...why not make the bet today?
