Dealer shows 2, 3,4,5 or 6 and I have 12. Is it mathematicaly smart for me to stay and let dealer bust? I hate doing it, but pressure from the table and etiquette force me to stay. Feels like the wrong decision sometimes. Especially vs 2-4.

I only play two deck pitch. Sometimes they are hard to find, but I will not play unless I can find a table like that. Sometimes you have to go into the higher limit parts.Originally Posted by reddog49
If the dealer shows a 3, 4, 5 or 6, I will stay on a 12. I will hit a 12 vs. a 12. Most expect you to stay if the dealer has a 3-6 up.
However, I try try to count the cards with only two decks being used, but that will normally only affect the size of your starting bet.
If you have: And dealer shows: Do this: 8 and under Always hit, regardless of the dealer's up-card 9 3, 4, 5, or 6 Double down 2 or 7 and above Hit 10 2 through 9 Double down 10 or ace Hit 11 2 through 10 Double down Ace Hit 12 2, 3, or 7 and above Hit 4 through 6 Stand 13 through 16 7 and above Hit 2 through 6 Stand 17 through 21 Always stand, regardless of the dealer's up-card
This is a very useful piece of information, especially for such a beginner like me. I started playing blackjack on mr.bet not long ago, so I need to improve my skills.
