Secret Tips for the Hit or Stand Game

It is beyond doubt that the game of Blackjack offers different options like doubling, splitting, buying insurance and surrendering which assist us in playing better. However there is one such strategy which has always remained shrouded in mystery and that is the hit or stand strategy. 'Blackjack' has often been referred to as the 'hit or stand' game since this strategy plays a decisive role in the game. Many big and small players have perished in the game not being able to decipher the secret within. However certain tricks and techniques would help you decode the strategy and play like you've never played before.
Thus you should know the various nitty gritty's involved so as to do well in the game. Some of the Strategies to Master this game are:
• Always try to guess what's been kept hidden from you. If the dealer shows a K, Q, J or 10, then you should know they have 20 or 21. Thus you would have an upper hand in the game. Learn to hit if it is 16 or less and stand if 17 or more.
• Learn to hit when you are 11 or less as that is one such point when you can never bust. In the same way learn to stand at 17 as you are close to 21 and your chances of going bust are relatively high.
• Whenever the dealer shows a 7, 8 or 9 in the hit or stand game, the dealer actually has a strong hand in most of such cases. Thus in order to compete you would have to have a value 10 card or an Ace. Going for a hit in such cases makes more sense and you could even go for a double down.
• If the dealer shows any of the 4, 5, or 6 cards then consider yourself well placed. In such cases they have a tendency to bust. It is good to go for a double down if you posses 9, 10 or 11. You may go for a hit if you have 8 or less and stand if you have 13 or above.
• If the dealer shows 2 then his chances of getting bust are rare as the chances for the dealer getting two cards worth 20 are about 10% only. It's better to hit on 9 without doubling down.
These small but fruitful techniques would surely help you have an upper hand in the hit or stand game and perform significantly better.
