Etiquette Rules For Blackjack
Blackjack is just like any other human activity: it has certain etiquette and rituals related to it.
If you want to be a spectator, that's fine, but watch from a reasonable distance and don't interfere with the players' ability to concentrate.
If you don't know the rules, play at a table with no other players if you can find one, and learn by yourself. It's important not to hold up the game for any reason.
Tip the dealer from time to time, especially if you're winning. One "cool" way to tip the dealer is by placing a bet on his behalf. To do this, just place an additional bet outside your betting circle, in the dealer's direction.
If the cards are dealt face up, don't touch them. You're only allowed to touch the cards if you're playing in a face-down game.
Don't drink at the table unless you can avoid spilling it. Don't get drunk or order drinks while people are waiting for you to play, either.
Don't talk excessively. Most people are there to play, not chat. Especially don't tell other players how to play or correct their mistakes. Don’t annoy the dealer with your questions about strategies or anything else.
Most of your blackjack decisions are communicated to the dealer via hand signals. The only weak point is that these signals are different for face up and face down games.
Face Up Game
Hitting - just point at your cards. Standing - wave your hand over your cards, with your hand parallel to the table. Placing an additional bet to the original bet means that you want to split or to double. Never place the bet on the original one if you want to split or to double.
Face Down Game
If you want to hit just scrape the table with your hand, but try to do it as light as possible. If you want no more cards you have to put the cards under the bet. If you want to double or to split you have to turn your cards face up and place one more bet next to our original bet.

Bad Blackjack Systems
If you really want to win at the game of Blackjack never use the following strategies.
Playing as the dealer does
Lots of players think that they will get the same advantage as the house if they play as the dealer does. They forget that the dealer is forced by casino rules to stand on 17, and is not allowed to double or split. And the player's 21 will never beat the dealer's natural Blackjack.
Assuming a 10 value hole-card
This is a tempting mistake to make, since there are several 10 valued cards in the deck (10's, Jacks, Queens and Kings). In fact the statistical chance of the Hole card being a 10 valued one is below 50%. So you would be wrong in assuming the dealer's Hole card to be a 10 or a ten valued one.
"The No Bust Strategy"
You are mistaken if you believe that this strategy can really work and there is an explanation for it. The objective of the strategy is not to go bust. So you stand no matter whether you have chances of going bust or not. But in fact it means standing with a hard 12 or greater. Go the "no bust strategy" route means that your only hope is for the dealer to bust - basically wishing on a star and not making meaningful decisions that the mathematical odds say will quite likely help you to win.
Playing by intuition or guesswork
When playing the game of Blackjack you will need not only luck, but also some skill and experience. So, if you wish to win at Blackjack the worst thing you can do is to follow your intuition or play on hunches. This way of playing may have a proper use when you play at lottery but in no case when you play Blackjack. This strategy will make no good as it will only increase the house edge and decrease your chances of winning greatly. If you want to win at Blackjack, make sure that you stay as far as possible away from the strategies detailed above, practice your own game-play using our free Blackjack game and ensure that you at least use a basic Blackjack strategy. Blackjack Table Feld
The Blackjack table is in the shape of a semi-circle, usually with padded edges and space for five up to seven seated players to lean on as they play. Some tables actually seat only five or six players. The dealer stands in the middle of the flat edge, opposite the players. In front of him you'll see the chip rack, which is a tray of chips differently colored, and each color represent a particular dollar value or denomination. In front of the dealer is also a spot for him to place his cards. In a semi-circle, the players have their spot to lay down their bets, and in front of every seat is a white square box where the dealer lays the players cards. The Blackjack table also has a field, on which some specific rules of the game are shown. Another thing to count for when playing Blackjack in a casino is to look for what type of Blackjack is played at the table you choose. In most of the casinos a multi-deck game is played, usually called shoe game (normally containing 4,6 or 8 decks of cards), because the cards are dealt from a rectangular wedge-shaped holder called 'shoe'. However, there will be casinos where you will find games of two decks or even single deck, but those places are very rare. Every player, whether he's playing online or in a casino he should know what is about and how the game works. Get acquainted with some features of the game in this very casino before you begin to play. You should know the number of decks in the game, the betting limits of the table and so on.
