Blackjack Switch

At some online casinos, the switching possibility is active. The interface would announce you if you have the possibility to apply it, and you must consider this as an option.

If you have a 10 in your hands, you will have the possibility to split. You will begin two separate blackjack hands. Let's suppose you have a 10 and a 6, and you decide to split. You will get another 4 let's say, and you will have to apply the switching strategy.

Switch one 10 with the 4. In this case, you will have one hand composed of two 10's and another one with a 4 and a 6. The hand of 10's is almost certainly a winner, unless the dealer gets a natural blackjack. Even if this happens, you will be able to recover the lost money with the second hand. You will already have a 10 in your hand, and you will also know the cards of the dealer.

Moreover, the online casino likes those kinds of players that like to take chances. It is considered that more than 75 percent of those hands are won by players, so you shouldn't fold in any case.

Is Switch Effective?

If you are applying this strategy, you will play two blackjack hands, both with a real possibility to get a blackjack. In this case, you will be paid twice your bet. Therefore, you could get 40 dollars with only 10 dollars gambled, and that is a decent winning rate.

Advanced Blackjack Switch

The previous example is simple. However, in the majority of cases, the decision to switch is harder to make. You could get a 21 from your first hand, but the second hand could be a hard 14. In this case, it is advisable not to push, as you could burst easily. Moreover, the casino's algorithm might not let you win, considering that you already won with the blackjack. If you have a higher hand like 15 or 16, it is advisable to stay, as the dealer could burst.

Strategy chart

Some advanced players would rather use the strategy charts in order to find the right combination. However, you would need to consult that chart fast, as you would have to place your bets in a short period. Try the charts on free tables until you master them perfectly. Make sure you find a trusting source for your charts, as there are many online scammers selling bad strategies of this kind.
