Blackjack Strategy Chart
Here we are at my blackjack strategy chart page. I knew we’d meet here sooner or later because I am the all-seeing Guru. I know that sounds a bit over-the-top, but I think I have the right to be full of myself, don’t you? I’ve drawn up this blackjack strategy chart just so you’ll have an idea of what’s going on with different card combinations during the game.
Any blackjack strategy chart will show you the combinations for only one type of game. My blackjack strategy chart shows a good way to go when playing at a table that’s using multiple decks of cards and the rules state that the dealer must stand on a soft 17. I’ve seen many a blackjack strategy chart that shows anything from 1 to 2 to 3 (and so on) decks and the dealer hitting on a soft 17. So you can see that if I wanted to, I could make a blackjack strategy chart for each of those situations. I’m afraid I just don’t have the space for that here. You know though, that if you want a blackjack strategy chart for each situation you run into, you can always find them on the ‘net.

Thanks for visiting with me here on my blackjack strategy chart page. I hope I’ve been able to give you a taste of what to expect out there. I bet you’ll be able to find lots of sites that have at least one blackjack strategy chart that gives you another view of the game. I’m just glad I can be of help. Once you're finished looking at my chart, you can go back to my strategy page if you like. Thanks for dropping by!
