    Default Dealer Advice

    Several weeks ago a dealer advised that we shouldn't follow basic strategy because... It was invented by organized crime to make their casinos more profitable!

    Default dealers

    years ago i thought one should ask the dealer for advice........after hearing remarks like "that's an 18 there pal that Ace and 7,you sure you wanna hit that?.............i learned most dealers know how to deal,some dealers know how to play the game.

    I wish you could have been there when I hit my twelve (10,2) against the dealer's 4. (Renzey's Dr. Pepper rule) The dealer really got all bent out of shape!

    A lot of dealers play too! They just don't play where they work! As a former dealer turned pro gambler. I can tell yiu the money is better playing then dealing if you know what you are doing and take advantage of well set up shoe!

    Exclamation Dealer advice is hit and miss

    Once I heard a dealer don't hit 16 vs an ace this is horrible advice it cost you an average of 15% by doing this! I consider anything that you gain or lose ten percent or more to be major in this game! The dealer will only bust 12% of the time with an ace showing! Others will give you good basic stragedy advice like double against a dealer 5 when you have an 11. But this is just the most obvious advice! some dealers are not allowed to give basic stragedy advice so they might give you no advice or bad advice!
