There is no easy answer when it comes to when to hit in blackjack. Ultimately, it depends on the situation and the player’s personal preferences. However, some general tips to keep in mind include:
– When you are playing against a dealer with a good hand, it is often best to hold back and let the dealer hit. This will give you a better chance of getting a good card, and you’ll also have more money in your hand at the end of the game.
– If you are playing against an opponent who has a bad hand, it is often advantageous to hit first. This will help you make more money, and it will also force your opponent to hit more often, which can lead to mistakes.
– It is also important to remember that different blackjack games have different rules about when hit cards are counted as part of your hand. In particular, in Spanish 21, Canadian 21 and French 21 games, hitting once increases your hand size by one (rather than adding one card to your current total).
