| House Edge in Blackjack |
Blackjack has much more favourable terms than most casino games but the house still gains an edge.
How The Casino Wins in Blackjack
The advantage that the dealer/house holds, also known as the house edge is that the dealer plays their hand after all the players have taken their turn.
 Any players which bust(go over 21) lose their money straight away. After the players have played their cards then the dealer plays and should the dealer bust then only those players who havent bust are paid.
The casino makes its profit from the fact that players who bust lose straight away, even if the dealer goes on to bust.
The dealer also sticks to a strict set of rules as to when they draw whereas some players play very poor blackjack strategies which give the house a further edge.
If you want to increase your chances of being a successful Blackjack player and keep the house edge to a minimum, have a look at our Blackjack Strategy page for blackjack tips and guidance. |
