How to deal with pairs in online blackjack- to split or not to split


When you find two aces in your hand, go for the split option.

When you have a 2 or a 3 - look at the dealer's up card. If the dealer has a card of value 2 through 7, go for split, otherwise hit.

When you have two 4s, split your hand if the dealer has a card of value 5 or 6. Otherwise, hit.

When the dealer has an up card showing value 2 - 9, double a hand with a pair of 5s. Otherwise, go for hit.

Split your sixes and sevens when the dealer has 2 - 6 or 2 - 7 up card respectively, or else hit.

Always split pairs of 8s.

Split a hand with a pair of 9s when the dealer has 2 through 6 or a 8 or a 9. In any other case, stand.

When you have two 10s, stand. You are as close to 21 as you can get.


What to do with Hard Hands in online blackjack - A Pair of Cards Neither of which is an Ace


Act according to your hand total:

With 8 or less choose to hit

Double down with a hand total 9 or 10 or 11 when the dealer holds any card of value 3- 6 or 2 - 9 or 2 - 10 respectively. In all other cases, hit. With a hand of value 11, hit if the dealer's face card is an ace. Otherwise, stand.

You should hit with a hand total 12 when the dealer has 2 or 3 face card. In all other cases, you should prefer to stand.

With a high hand total, between 13 and 16, choose to stand if the face card has values between 2 and 6.

In even higher hand values, that is, 17 through 21, stand is the best option.

4 or 5: Choose to double only if the dealer has a face card of value 4, 5 or 6. Or else hit.

6: Go for the double option if the up card has a value from 3 through 6. If not, choose hit.

7: if the dealer holds a 2 or a 7 or an 8, take the stand option. Double if the face card is 3 - 6. In all other cases, hit.

8 or 9: Stand is the best option.
