Strategies, tips & tricks: Play European Blackjack with strategy?

In the field of Blackjack strategies there are many different opinions. I don't want to go into much detail about card counting or anything like that, because A) it doesn't help online and b) you shouldn't get caught doing it in casinos.

Nevertheless, you can always find tips and tricks for playing the different types of blackjack. Especially strategy tables are quite widespread. I wanted to know whether something like this is used when playing

These are tables that show how you should play so that you can keep the house advantage as low as possible. Consequently, if you play with the right strategy, you are not guaranteed to win, but you can minimize the losses to some extent.

It is important that you always know the Dealer behavior and the actual possibilities exactly. The following strategy table is only really accurate for European blackjack with the following specifications:


  • Dealer does not look at Blackjack - the player loses all bets even through doubles and splits

  • Dealer stays on a soft 17 (score 17 is reached with an ace)



This variant is offered among others in casinos in Hamburg and Berlin so. If you play according to this, you can keep the house advantage as low as possible at 0.62%.

Online, the strategy can be used relatively well with Microgaming's European Blackjack. In the games of Evolution Gaming, it has not done bad so far, at least for me

Here is an overview of the topic:

Do you use such or similar strategy tables for the different games? Do you just play according to your gut feeling?

So you should be able to master the basic strategy in your sleep. However, I generally advise against using the BJ machine. Because of the fast game speed, the house advantage catches up with you relatively quickly.I have never come out with a really big win. With live BJ it is a mixture of basic strategy and experience and also gut feeling.at a full table you should perceive very precisely what is on the table in terms of card values. The way to really high wins is, in my opinion, only through the sidebets. When I play on sidebets I usually look for an empty table with a relatively full shoe.Christoph, do you play a lot of live games or before slots ?

I tend to play live Blackjack and have found there that I don't always stick to the actual best strategy, which sometimes leads to losing. Still, there are some types like Pontoon, Double Attack Blackjack or especially Blackjack Switch that you won't find in the live areas. These are titles from Playtech that are only available as slots so far - there is more to consider and sometimes I find the games a bit more exciting

Therefore, I would never play classic or European blackjack on the machine, but all other variants are. Unfortunately, it is relatively difficult to find a decent Playtech casino. About the wins - well, I've been lucky with Blackjack Switch, and a few times with Pontoon, but you can quickly gamble away with Double Attack. Especially if you play very risky, which is certainly standard for this variant.

Please have a look at the BJ machine game from Felt at Leo Vegas - I mean it's called "6 in 1" You can play 6 sidebets per hand, with max. 3 hands. Stakes start from 0.10 cents / max 20 € The thing can really go down badly.

So when I read something like that I always have to smile. I play for more than 8 years LifeBlackjack and if I would reach my payout ratio I would be P times thumb at about 2-5%

So either I've had an unending streak of bad luck for 8 years or everyone else is pulling my leg

As an example: I Deposit 200 Euro and play Blackjack with 5 Euro hands. It usually goes like this: 1 hand is won by me, then I lose an average of 3-6 hands. Then a push, eventually a hand may be won again and then the same Chema from the beginning. 200 euros therefore do not last 30 minutes with this way of playing

If I have the incredible luck to win 2-5 hands, then I lose the following 8-16 hands with the most impossible card combinations.

Since 3 months I have a different strategy concerning this. I go to the table and bet everything. If I win the hand, then I double down again on everything. Should I win this then I leave the table and have multiplied my bet
I'm doing a lot better than I have in the last few years

The basics have never brought me anything. There are times when you play meticulously according to them and everything goes down the drain and the opposite. I just find with time you get an eye for when it is appropriate to take another and when not

Now your eyes will probably fall out while reading, but the AutomatenBlackjack I find extremely much better than the Life version. Simply for the reason that you can see if it is (hot) or not. As soon as I see that I win whatever I do, I drastically increase my bets and drive in very good profits from time to time. So from 12 euros now and then times 100-300Euro.

I was skeptical for a long time, but I have the feeling that the standard machine blackjack from Netent is manipulable or there is a loophole that some players have discovered

So I did not want to tell the story here - but Hammer forces me just...... After my Book of ra Roulette win I wanted this year actually no longer play....sometime 3 weeks ago was it in the evening times boring and I paid 10€ in.At the BJ machine I came to 40€.damit I went to a live table.It went up and down.It joined a bottle of vino and I played a little higher - had there but already 200€.My longest series came about 3:00 am.I won 19(!) hands in a row -crowning was a Suited Trip with three ladies on 30€ Sidebet.The Dealer has not been laughing and I had my best live BJ experience and result ever ung went out with 2140€.It can work......

I don't know what your intentions were, but it deeply depresses me and seems to confirm that I have the longest losing streak in the history of Blackjack since its invention......

So I did not want to depress you in any case! I try to circumvent my streaks of bad luck by not playing.Has certainly been an extreme case.

I have tried the sidebets in the various Blackjack variants several times - so far I have not had a lucky hand there; therefore, I am very skeptical about the matter. I am aware that the wins here can be significantly higher, but the house advantage is also correspondingly larger. But I will also try out the Felt machines in the next few days.

@ Hammerdammer: Have you tried the different live areas from the streaming manufacturers. I must confess that I had similar bad luck with both Roulette and blackjack from NetEnt. As a result, I kept wondering if everything was above board at the studios. Especially with the often described Common Draw Blackjack, I have never had any luck and lost relatively much.

However, I must confess that I know a friend who once got a special Live Blackjack No Deposit Bonus and was able to wager it at the NetEnt tables - he won a total of 200€ in one evening (it was the maximum amount for the bonus payout). So sometimes you can win if you are lucky.

I guess there is no Manipulation at the live Blackjack tables. At least in the big reputable casinos.

Sure, there are streaks of bad luck and the Dealer has apparently incredible luck and makes the worst card again and again ne 21.
But I've also had a blackjack 4 times in a row. Where you also think to yourself: Ok, it's getting scary. Immediately comes the virtual casino manager and asks one to talk

The sidebets are just a matter of taste. But I think it's still more fun when there's really a Suited Trip and the bet on the field is multiplied by 100.
