Understanding the principles of odds, could be your first step to become a successful Blackjack player. It is possible to beat Blackjack by acquiring the right skills, the advantage could be turn into the player's side. Check it out!

If you follow these two ideas, it possible to turn the odds to your side:

1- A critical first step is learning how to play Blackjack using basic strategy. Anyone can do this with a little practice. By learning to play Blackjack using perfect basic strategy, you will already reduce the casino's edge to a mere 0.80% - the second lowest among all table games - and far better than the odds found at the Roulette tables and most slot machines.

2- Blackjack is a dependent variable game, meaning that as each card is dealt from the deck(s), the odds of any remaining card - like an Ace or 10 - coming up next is constantly changing. If you're playing a single deck game, before any cards have been dealt, you know that the odds of any Ace being dealt are 4 out of 52. If the first two cards dealt are both Aces, then there is only a 2 out of 50 (or 1 in 25) chance that the next card will be another Ace. Over time, experts have used computer simulations to determine that high cards like Aces and Tens are beneficial to the player, and conversely small cards are good for the dealer. If you are able to keep track of which cards have left the deck, you would obviously stand a better chance at knowing which cards remain; hence which ones are most likely to be dealt on the very next draw. This is where the house edge is nullified, and the player begins to build a small, yet sizable edge over the house. Such is the advantage of becoming a skilled blackjack player.
