So, blackjack strategy advice? I’ve been there. Last night was wild—had a 12, dealer’s upcard was a 2. What a tough spot, right? With a pair of 6s, do you hit or split? Man, I remember being new to this and totally stressing over these calls. Can’t wait to hear what you think and swap stories

Alright, here’s the deal: always split those 6’s against a dealer’s 2 when DAS is allowed seriously, it’s the smart play. No DAS? Then just hit. Simple as that. Don’t overthink it, because the math doesn’t lie.

If you are not counting basic strategy is hit 12 and split 6

Okay, so I’m SOO stubborn when it comes to splitting 6’s against a dealer 2 like, I do it almost every single time, even if I’m totally losing that round. And honestly, I usually just stand if the dealer shows a 2, unless I’m feeling lucky and actually winning then maybe I’ll hit it and see what happens. Ugh, loving it when the cards play out right!
