Default How to pick the best Blackjack table

The implication is that not all Blackjack games are created equal and this is certainly true depending on what Blackjack table rules are imposed. What you want is a table that has as small a theoretical advantage for the casino as possible. The impact that these nuances have are more and more relevant to your chip stack the longer you play.

First it should be stated that none of this matters if you do not play perfect Basic Strategy. No amount of minimized table edge will make you a winner if you don't play absolutely perfect Basic Strategy. the first rule is memorize a strategy table or buy a strategy card from the gift shop and bring it to the table with you.

I am a dealer and have been dealing for 5 years and the table you want to sit on is one where the people have many stacks of chips and the dealer's rack has a very low amount of chips. This will usually signify that the dealer is cold and giving money away.

Lightbulb Re: How to pick the best Blackjack table

Here is a list of rules and conditions for all blackjack games in Las Vegas. Not sure when it was last updated, but it says 2010 so it should be relevant.

I usually go with the closest table to the door or entrance,they normally allow more winners from this table to get the other palyers attention.

When people see other people winning they tend to want to join in and play at a winning table.

I also jump around to different tables acording to my luck at each of them.If I do not have any luck at one table for a few games I will go to another one until I find one that I have some luck on and then I stay at that one for a while.
