He did not have a clue (splitting 10's - doubling on 12's.ETC.).
On my last sailing, there was a young boastful fellow playing a few times at the same table as I was. Do you bet it all - all the time? Do you start off small and then get aggressive? Do you hold back and wait/hope for the 9-10-11 hands when you can double down? You have X amount of money for Y amount of hands. I like to play Black Jack and know the fundamentals pretty well in terms of: when to hit/stay (of course) double down strategy when to split and when not to, the 'book' on what to do with 'soft' hands, etc.īut in the Carnival BJ tournaments: I'd be interested in any tips on money management.
