General Tips
- Don't ever take insurance bets in Blackjack because the odds of winning these are more than twice the house odds of other bets and you're just throwing away your money.
- Don't keep any cards in a video poker hand that does not have anything that pays out. The worst you can do is getting another five cards that don't pay out, and you're just as well off as you were before.
- Don't chase after losses. Make sure you set a budget and stick to it.
- The longer you play the more chance the casino has of winning. Casinos always have the long-term advantage, so quit while you're ahead.
- You will almost always play in a different way when you play play-money games and when you play real-money games. Remember that no matter what you are playing for, the games are the same and the odds don't change.
- When you win a bit, put that away and save it for later.
- Always remember to claim every deposit bonus that you can. You'll get some easily, and others not quite so easily, but unless you clam them, you'll never be in the running to get them.
- Whenever possible, play European Roulette instead of American roulette because the additional "00" in American Roulette almost doubles the house edge compared to European Roulette.

Blackjack Tips
- An ideal blackjack table is one whose minimum is not higher than 5% of your total stash. While selecting a table, consider the rule variations which allow the blackjack player the option of doubling down on any two cards or the dealer having to stand on soft 17.
- Doubling down involves doubling the player’s bet and receiving one additional card. Use this option whenever you think that you will beat the dealer. Double down with any hand of 11, and 10 against a 9 or lower.
- Even if you are not completely aware of the rules of these variations, keep in mind that they work in favor of the player.
- If the player is dealt with two cards of the same value, it is a good move to use the “split” option. You can always split 7’s or 8’s against a dealer’s card of equal or less value. Don’t split 5’s and 10’s. You can also split 2’s or 3’s against a dealer’s 4, 5, or 6. And finally, always split aces.
- Knowing these tips will help a prospective blackjack player to increase his or her winning chances. Enjoy a few games of online blackjack today!
- Finding the right blackjack table is an important step in increasing your winning chances of the game.
- Remember as the dealer has to take a card on any hand with 16 or less, the player cannot win with less than 17 points, unless the dealer exceeds 21 points.
- Hence it is a good idea to take a hit (take a card) on any hand below 17 when the dealer shows 8, 9, 10, J, Q, K, or ace cards which are unlikely to make the dealer bust. When the dealer shows a 4, 5, or 6 value card the player can stand on any hand above 11. This increases the dealer’s chance to bust, more than 40% of the time.
- Don’t forget to use the doubling down option whenever needed. Doubling down is considered one of the best advantages of a blackjack player.
