blackjack-surrender

[Daws1089]

Does anyone else who plays blackjack a lot think that 14 should be included as a surrender card? I know 15 and 16 are, but man 14 seems to bust almost more than the 15 or 16 would. It has to be one of the worst hands in blackjack, but i guess it gives a little bit higher of a chance of not busting if u hit it. I just think the surrender option on a 14 is a decent move.

There are only two hands, Yes two hands your suppose to surrender on!

You ever wonder why you lose at Black Jack????



Because the Dealer has to hit his hand! Why not you?????

uhhh i dont lose at blackjack?

I just started playing blckjack this year and have played 5 times. I was + on 4 of them.


Surrender on 15 aand 16 against a 10 or ace.


Sometimes it seems like 14 is a good option to surrender against a 10 or ace was all i'm asking.

I guess I should have been more specific in my post

Well Glad to hear your winning at this game!
This game has cost me many years that I can not have back!

I have a book here that I'm going to read one day! A good friend of mine gave it to me and is up over a mill. Life time!

I guess the point I was trying to make is blackjack is a game not for the week hearted! You need to have
1) Bankroll
2) Patience
3) Time

Its just like anyother casino game the odds are not in your favor! This is coming from a 6 deck show player. I know money can be made on 2 deck shoes but they are far few and between to find. Surrender is a house gimick anything the house offers you is no good! Unless you master it to perfection and only use it on these two hands. Your odds go down when you throw in 14. Dealers have to hit so why not you! Unless your counting and the count is positive than maybe but I just don't see it being effective!

Use BlackJack for what it is worth...entertainment! Maybe check out the Bac table, better odds!
