I am just getting into playing blackjack and apparently I need more practice. I do ok at home playing with friends, maybe it was just the ex excitement of the casino. How long did it take you to start winning at the table?
Argh, this is one of the games that I really do leave to the experts!
I love to watch blackjack in the casino, but I don’t have the nerve to play at the tables.
Do what? You are playing a game where the house has about a 1-2% advantage. You can never win in the long term but you can win infrequent short term sessions.
To increase your chance of winning and reduce the amount of your losses you must play perfect Basic Strategy which is the mathematically correct play on each hand.
