Where Is the House Advantage in Blackjack?

The house advantage in blackjack is generally believed to be around 2.7%. This means that for every 100 hands of blackjack played, the house will win on average 27 hands and lose on average 73 hands. This means that, on average, over the long term the house will earn an extra $2.

70 per hand. This advantage is significant enough that some casinos will actually offer players the opportunity to “cash out” of their blackjack tables, in which case they will receive a payout based on this house advantage.
