Always double when you have 11-13

Ive recently been playing a LOT of blackjack and discovered that you should almost always double when you have 11-13 total deal. It doesn't always matter what the dealer has because most times when you double, you'll end up winning.

Now this doesn't work every time but it's worked 8/10 times for me when I've tried it with 0 bet. I know people have there superstitions about 0 bets but I don't agree with those opinions so I don't apply them to this.

You guys should try it and let me know how it goes :D

I am in agreement here for the most part.  I know good black jack strategy says to only double down when the dealer has certain cards showing, but I always double down when the dealer doesn't have an Ace or Face showing, and sometimes even when they do.

That's an interesting strategy because to double on a 13 is really risky. Typically I only double if I'm holding a 10, face or Ace. You have to always assume the dealer has a 10 or higher valued card.  But hey if it's working for you then kudos, keep making that money Enzo!

I'm not sure that it is a good idea on 12 or 13 regardless of the dealer's up card is, but if it's working that's great.  Depending on what the dealers up card is, say if it is 6 or lower I even love doubling on 7-10 as well.

by the book you should double only 10/11 but i double it on 9 and 8 of course if dealer have 5-6-7 if he have 8 and i have 9 i always double and so on, but still that will not make you profitable with a bit of "luck"

hehe if I would get paid for all my 0 bets then I would be a millionaire already ;) but yea technically it doesn't matter but then how come it's so easy to play with 0 bets? Probably because we don't see the winning amount that we are about to lose if we go risky, so we tend to do more risky things. And when we play with balance we always have in mind what we could lose - our initial bet + the eventual winnings.

I almost do not play blackjack, because the computer is always at least 18-21 points and it’s very difficult to win 10% bust in such conditions when you have points such as 15.16.17 in the hand and it’s not clear what to do if you hit then with a probability of 99% there will be a bust. In general, not a very balanced game as for me.

higher change on getting 21 on 11 card, but not sure on 13 of course if you get high cards like QKJ thats automatic lose, so i double only on 11, or 10

yeah i sometimes agree with this, but better only if you have 11, coz hi chance of getting KJQ, or 10 or 9, which will give you a good total of card, dut i dont normal play BJ

I only double when I get 10 and 11. If I get 12 and 13, I never double. too risky if I get 10 J Q and K. and I also see the beginning of the dealer's card, if it starts with 3 4 5 6, even though I only have 12 and 13, I will stand

Я пробовал, но результаты были очень плохими получить номер 13, а затем становится 23 и это повторилось несколько раз. а может моя судьба просто безобразна?

Хахаха

mm I do not quite agree with you, yes you have to double on all 11 but not the 13, you just have to look at the blackjack tables found on the internet.

On the other hand one can double all the 10 when the banker has between 2et6 I authorize myself even against 7.

After each done as he wants we just talk about probability in the long run to be the least loser possible

well intresting fact i will must try this.

but what i was trying to do is i stopped asking about any more card at 13 or 14 because it always gave me 10 or above and bust, so why not to take chance at 13 or 14 maybe dealer get bust and you win at these numbers anyway.

sir i suggest you change it, double on 9,10, 11, coz if you get a face card that will give you 19,20,21, is that right sir?

I do double only when I have 9,10,11 as first hand.  No other way I will do that and only if I have been truly lucky in latest hands.  Sometimes BJ can be mess, and the fact that there is not a limited amount of cards as there is a infinite deck of cards when gambling......well, you better be careful with that.  Most of times the house gets the better cards when you double it. My opinion, good luck.

No! No sir! Always double down when having 9 to 11. This is a part of basic strategy and people need to keep it by them while playing for reference until you memorize it. You prob could've saved a lot of money not doubling down on 12 or 13. Too many face cards. It is against your odds to hit on those much less double down. I hope you revise your topic so you arent misleading anyone!  Stay green guy amd hope you hit big!
