Strategy
Basics that cut house edge
Always split aces and 8s
Aces give two shots at 21. Two 8s = 16, the worst hand.
Never split 5s or 10s
5s should double on dealer 2–9. 10s is a winning 20.
Stand on hard 17+
Statistically you bust more than you improve.
Double 11 vs anything but A
Strongest doubling spot in the game.
