---My first time playing blackjack, i was confronted with a soft 18 vs 5, but i had already drawn cards, i didnt know what to do because i couldnt double?!?!? i hit it incorrectly, i went home that night to learn how to play these hands properly. Its often not directly mentioned that you should stand when you cant double or its in small print somewhere on the chart.
---When playing "turbo mode" heads up against the dealer, i doubled down on 3 hands in a row, the next hand i was dealt, i continued the double down motion almost instinctively when i saw i had 9 and doubled a 9 vs 8?!?!?!? :cry: she flipped over the cards so fast i couldnt take it back. Be carefull when the dealer is dealing the cards out very vast and you are playign very fast.
---Dont get all excited when you win!!! I cant remeber how many times in my early playing, that toward the end of the shoe i was so excited about all the money i had on the table that i forgot the coutn and had to start over at a fresh game, this usally happend when there were only a few hands left and i thought the shuffle was coming, but it didnt and i abandoned the count when i could have played a few more hands, more recently, iv gotten up from tables and walked away after a big win only to remember that i was supposed to follow the cards from the first deck thorough the shuffle!!! DOH!!! Dont forget to win ALL of the money that your supposed to
---I used to think that the pit people were ALWAYS out to kill me everytime they watched my game, its simply not so, they are mostly very nice people, so try to have fun playing cards instead of being paranoid, it will greatly add to the enjoyment of your blackjack adventure.
---While this isnt a mistake, i just want to share with everybody that statistics ARE REAL and that i just went on a losing streak of 89 maximum bets in 20 hours of playing, while also, even after that loss i still have profits to show
