Five Winning Blackjack Tips

Blackjack is always one of the most popular casino games. This is because blackjack is very easy to learn and play. Unlike poker, blackjack does not have any complicated combinations to remember.

In blackjack, the object of the game is to get the sum of the two cards close to 21. When a person gets cards that are over 21, he or she loses the game.

First, a player receives two cards. After the players see their cards, they have to decide whether they would hit or stand. When a person says “stand”, this means the player thinks he or she is closer to 21 already. When a player says “hit”, this means that he or she still needs additional cards just to get close to 21.

Players can draw as many cards as they want until they feel they are close to 21 already. A player who is nearer to 21 wins.

Here’s five tips that players often use to win the game.

One: If a player gets 17 or higher, it is always better to stand, and if the player has any number from 13 to 16 and the dealer’s card is 6 or lower, it would be better to stand. But if the dealer has 7 or more, it would be better for a player to hit.

The idea is that, if the dealer is showing a card of six or lower, the dealer may take a card, assuming that the dealer’s down card is a ten. The players, then, assume that the dealer is playing a bust hand, so the other players have the tendency to maintain a lower card number.

The rule of thumb: players should always assume that the dealer’s card facing down is 10.

Two: If a player has aces or 8’s, it would be better to split them no matter what the dealer’s showing card is.

Three: A player should decide not to split 10’s. Chances are, they might end up getting busted.

Four: If the dealer is showing 4, 5, or 6, it would be better for a player to stand on hard 12, or hit if the dealer is showing 2, 3, 7, or higher.

Five: In order to win, players should always remember not to split fours, fives, and face cards.

Gambling is of course a game of chance, but it is possible to increase one’s odds of winning.

Make Money Wagering on NHL Hockey

If you are like most interested sports fans, and enjoy wagering on sports, then pay close attention to the next couple of paragraphs. It can change the way you think about NHL Hockey wagering.

I, like many sports fans, tended to ignore the NHL and stayed away! Then, after developing the wickedly profitable “Series Factor” system for MLB, I spent countless hours formulating a plan to implement that system into all four major sports. It is a fit, and NHL Hockey, works perfectly!

When looking into NHL wagering, be very careful as you begin to analyze your plays. I developed the Series Factor wagering system to take advantage of MLB, but as I realized that all sports, and team tendencies in all sports, allowed this factor to take advantage of much more than just baseball.

Many of my friends and partners over the past 25 years have told me of countless systems and ways to profit from the NHL. They told me it was the easiest sport! I studied this phenomenon for several years prior to jumping in to make my fortune! What I found out, was that hockey isn’t actually that easy to predict! Road games, Home games, goalies, road trips, home stands, back to back nights, back to back nights against same opponents, the list goes on and on! After happily moving along with a small profit, I realized that my series factor could be applied as a final factor determining the outcome of NHL hockey. That was the missing piece!

When you begin to analyze the NHL, keep in mind the importance of human nature! Pay close attention to what phase of home stand, or road trip, the teams are experiencing. Also pay close attention to the relative success or failure to that point in the home stand or road trip. Human nature tends to allow certain teams to relax in the middle of a long road trip, or relax at the beginning of a home stand! This human nature effect is often not as obvious to many handicappers, but you can add this factor as one of your predictors, and become much more accurate when handicapping the NHL.

Watch closely over the first couple of months, and target how good road and home teams perform when they are having extended road trips or home stands. I recommend any trip or home stand of more than two games to qualify for the Series Factor. The Factor, is not the only predictor I use, but if you are closing in on profit with NHL, the Series Factor may just be what puts you over the top and on your way to becoming a highly accurate NHL predictor!

Good Luck with all your sports endeavors, and enjoy!
