How to Reduce House Odds When Playing Blackjack Online

What am I suppose to do when I have an A4 and the Dealer is showing a 6? Those irritating little tricks the casinos employ to try and pull the house across the finish line have been known to make the dealer bust, or at least go bust themselves. Good old fashioned blackjack here on our planet is not really the best venue for such manoeuvres. In most casinos, the house edge is well over 5%, so in order to statistically prove your point, you’ll have to either convince the casino you have some kind of ability to beat their odds, or commission them a secret technique so they can place the card at a higher rate and thus beat you too!

Thinking you can win if you keep placing big bets right? Well, you’d better think again. The casino odds have been calculated. They are an mathematical fact no matter what sort of game you are playing in. Some might argue with that premise, but whatever, you need to accept it for what it is, the odds. Set a limit for yourself and stick to it. If you are lucky enough to be gambling in a place where the house doesn’t have a built-in house advantage, then go and find a better game.

Most slot machines are programmed to pay out at a certain percentage for each coin bet. So if you keep paying out 5 coins for each spin, the machine will keep beating you with a built-in house advantage of say 6%, but you will find that the amount you are beating is slowly being taken away by the house edge. Every machine is programmed for a specific payout percentage. Some of them pay 70%, some will pay 96%, and some will pay 99.5%. So just because you can win five coins for a single spin, doesn’t mean you will stay betting five coins throughout the average session. You’ll see a pattern after a while in thegression of the house edge.

If you are betting quarters and you win, quit. Come back again another day. Don’t brick your mouse away when the dime slot starts spinning. Come back another day and the spins will be higher and the jackpot will be bigger and you can win that jackpot.

If you are betting dates and you win, quit. The average house advantage for dates is only about 10% in the casino, so if you are betting them, you are actually being rewarded the house for the privilege of betting them. Go to a different game or cut your losses and stop playing for that day.

If you are betting credits and you win, don’t keep betting credits until you win a jackpot. Play into your favour and bet big. Once you have won a few multi-million dollar jackpots, the credits you used to bet will when turn to pure profit. Not all slots are the same, learn the differences.

Slots are a great game because if you know what to do, the house edge can be defeated. Learn the rules, learn the strategies, and leave the rest up to Lady Luck.

Play long enough and you will lose, just like anybody else. It’s the house edge that is the devil. The casinos know that, and you know that. That’s why you see people win time after time at the casino only to lose the next day at home. The cycle goes on. The higher the bet the higher the house edge, the more people will lose. Just like the casino knows that you will lose more than you will win, the casino knows that you will lose more than they will win.

Do you have the above three things in your life that you think is the problem? Or, do you believe that you can win them both? I personally believe that if you want to be a professional gambler, you have to have a desire to win and a belief that you can win. Everything else, be it books, coaches, systems, or luck will get you there.
