Play Blackjack
Now that you have learned the fundamentals of how to play Blackjack, you need to
practice before risking your hard earned money. There are two ways to practice:
with cards or computer. Cards give one the feel of the game, but you cannot play
very many hands per hour. Even with a dealer, using cards one can only play about
100 hands per hour. By yourself, you'll get maybe 60 if you shuffle fast. If you know
basic strategy, you can play 200 to 300 hands per hour on computer. The number
will vary depending on the program speed and your speed also. Have a basic
strategy card handy so you can easily refer to it during play. If you don't have one,
print it off from this website. Post it near your computer and it will be there any time
you get stuck on a play. This type of reinforcement as well as the speed you will be
playing will have you making accurate fast decisions in no time. Soon all but the
most difficult hands will be automatic.
You have many choices where to play online. I play for free on online at Bodog
Casino. They offer state-of-the-art software for free. I can play from
anywhere, on any computer. I can also play other games such as poker for variety.
So, get in a few hours of practice, use a simple betting progression to see how it
works (it also will require a bit of practice), then hit the casinos. You will be better
than 98% of the other players!
