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.
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.

In Singapore, blackjack is very popular.

Blackjack is the American variant of a globally popular banking game known as Twenty-One. It is a comparing card game between usually several players and a dealer, where each player in turn competes against the dealer, but players do not play against each other.
Blackjack is one of the most played in the world both at land-based casinos and casinos game .Unlike most casino games in singapore, this particular game is one of both chance and strategy. Its rules are fairly easy to learn. Using the right strategy can reduce the house advantage from 5% to almost 0%. However, this will only occur if the optimal strategy is followed down to the tee.
Blackjack (black jack) follows the same rules as a regular bricks and mortar casino, but there is a certain beauty about playing it online. A player with a good understanding of the game and a decent strategy has the potential to win big with the advantage of playing against a reduced House edge. Demo modes can also help develop a winning strategy.
