It looks like the house edge for these calculations is 5.2%. What are the odds of losing 10 in a row with a blackjack game with rtp of 99.91%, or 0.09% house edge? I played a game with 99.91% rtp and lost 8 in a row after only playing 7 hands. I made $2 and lost $256. Is that statistically uncommon?
Furthermore, is the probability impacted if a player plays to win $1 on 100 different blackjack games, rather then playing to win $100 on one blackjack game.
These charts are great, Ken, but I was hoping to find something simpler. I want to know what percentage of blackjack hands are correct double downs using basic strategy in a 6-deck S17 game where you can double any two cards and double-after-split is allowed. Likewise, what percentage of hands are (correct) splits? I think the combined figure is around 11-12%, but I’m looking for a precise figure.
I just learned Flash was discontinued due to security issues so this will never work in flash again. Hopefully it can be uploaded in a different format!
App appears to be broken – stops when you press the “play” button, but sits there with the shoe empty and goes no further (see attached Screen/shot) Have tried FF/Chrome, cleared browser cache, no fix.
correct basic strategy for 15 on 3 would be stand… It’s a basic strategy site that doesn’t play basic strategy. I know I was supposed to get 20/20. I got 13/20.
I don’t know how to count cards as far as 21 goes. So I don’t even know what Ko or hi-lo is; or how their done. Is there a way to learn them here on line? I don’t count cards; so from what I have read here; I am playing badly? So far this year I am up 920$ after 4 sets at the tables on 4 different days. I thought my play was fairly good? But now I am wondering if I could do better if I learn about counting?
Woah. I woulda went and grabbed a padded suit and locked myself in a completely accident free zone for at least a week of that happened to me. LOL couldn’t imagine losing 30 hands in a row. I’d be fighting somebody.
why did the V2 trainer advise surrender w double 6s vs dealer ace?
I thought it was 6 and 4 on the 17 question, so i chose double but it was a hard 9 and the dealer showed 7. So it’s not a double and i know that
wish you would let us play on split aces like a casino does.
i feel robbed, it loses all the fun.
you get to set the rules yourself, just play split aces

What is the mechanism for constructing this table? very interesting how it works from the point of view of mathematics
Lol this website is wrong. It doesn’t follow basic strategy
the game lets ya double twice if you click twice on ddouble LOL
I know I’ve used this before and want to use it again! I am trying on my desktop and it still doesn’t want to run.

I would also have chosen the following hands:
4-4 vs 5
A-10 vs A even money or stand?
7-4 vs A
5-4 vs 2
A-7 vs 2
A-7 vs 9
A-5 vs 3
9-9 vs 7
4-4 vs 4

I see it’s fixed now – Thanks!
Please make this more mobile friendly and maybe a fullscteen option

Sounds reasonable. It happens in real life too!
