How do you leave a blackjack table

It’s midnight and you’re having a blast at the blackjack table. So far you’ve won $5,000 and you couldn’t be happier. The cocktail waitresses keep bringing the free drinks and you happily accept. Your night couldn’t get any better. Fast forward to 3:00 a.m. You’re a little drunk and you mutter to yourself as you walk away from the blackjack table with only $100 left in winnings.

It happens more often than you can imagine in both brick and mortar and online casinos. Blackjack is a game of skill, but there is also a high element of chance, with the outcome depending in part on which cards are randomly dealt. Because of that, it can be a rather streaky game. When you’re on a hot streak, you can win a lot of money. However, if you’re on a cold streak, you can easily lose it all. So when should you walk away from the table?

How to pick the ‘best’ Blackjack table (a.k.a. The Cost Benefit of Rule Variations) I got asked the other day, 'How do you know what table to play when playing Blackjack?' It’s an interesting question that not a lot of folks know: Which of the many Blackjack tables in the pit should you choose to play at? Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

That is something only you can decide and it pretty much has to be taken on a case by case basis. Some people play until they feel their hot streak has ended. Those people will keep playing until they get on a hot streak that makes them some good money. Once they start losing that money little by little, though, they feel it’s time to walk away because the streak is over. The good thing about this strategy is that you would still have most of your winnings left. The bad thing is you never know if you were about to start another hot streak.

Some people plan ahead and have a set amount of money they want to make that night. Once they reach that amount, if they do, they walk away happily, regardless of whether or not they are on a streak. The downside of this philosophy is that if you set your goal too high you might never reach it and if you set it too low you may leave the table when there was more money for you to win. The good thing about this idea is that it is structured and disciplined.

Another thing that some players, including myself, do is to set aside a certain amount of money to gamble before you ever enter the casino. Make sure it is an amount that it wouldn’t hurt you to lose. While you’re playing blackjack, wager only money from that amount that you have set aside. All winnings should be kept separate and never wagered. After all, if you don’t wager your winnings then you can’t lose them. Once your wagering money is gone or you don’t feel like playing anymore, whichever happens first, you are done playing. There may not be the same money-making potential in this strategy as when letting it ride, but you are at least guaranteed of keeping your winnings.

Whatever your philosophy for when to leave the blackjack table, the key is to have a philosophy. If you don’t have a whole lot of disposable income, like me, then my philosophy of setting aside wagering money ahead of time may be the way to go. If you have more money available to you, a less strict strategy may work and could allow you to make more money, but you’re also risking losing it.

Whatever your plan, I advise that you have a plan before you step foot into a brick and mortar casino or log onto an online casino. Having a plan ahead of time will make it a lot easier to walk away from the blackjack table at the right time. Let’s face it, the last thing you want is to quit too late.

While playing the game of Blackjack, in a casino that you drive to or one that you play at on the Internet, you will most likely encounter the urge to get up from the blackjack table you are playing blackjack at, and go to an other. It is important to not always ignore this feeling. This also goes for playing live dealer Blackjack online.

A lot of blackjack players have their own theories and ideas of how they chose a blackjack table to play blackjack at, or which on line room to play blackjack in.

Some blackjack players base their choice of blackjack table based on the blackjack dealer at the table, it’s good to keep in mind, most of the time, that blackjack dealer is not going to be at that blackjack table for more than an hour and will most likely not return to that same blackjack table after taking his or her break.

Some blackjack players will base their blackjack table selection based on the amount of blackjack chips the current blackjack players have in front of them, under the assumption that all of the blackjack chips on the blackjack table are winnings that the blackjack players have acquired at that blackjack table. A good thing to remember, you never know at which blackjack table those blackjack players got those blackjack chips, you never know how much of those blackjack chips are winnings, and how much are bankroll that the blackjack player is actually in for. Even if all of those blackjack chips did come from that blackjack table, and they were all winnings, that does not mean that the blackjack table is still “dumping” to the blackjack players, and that it will remain to do so after you sit down and change the number of blackjack players.

A lot of times, as we sit at a blackjack table where the house just keeps beating us, hand after ugly hand, we get the urge to move to an other blackjack table, we could do one of two things at this point. We could get up, leave the blackjack table, go on the hunt for a new blackjack table to play at, where we have no idea of how the blackjack players are at the next blackjack table we decide to play at, no clue as to how they play, how they conduct themselves. We also have the option of staying at the blackjack table that has been abusing us all night and hope that it changes. Sitting at a losing blackjack table and waiting for it to change can sometimes be a foolish choice, after all, we have no clue as to how long a blackjack table can just kill you, shoe after shoe, we have no clue how long a blackjack table can go, without eventually turning around and letting go of some winning blackjack hands. In a perfect world, you would have left that blackjack table, before it clobbered you for hours, not after, after that kind of winning streak for the house, would surely have to be a streak where the blackjack players could beat the blackjack dealer for awhile.

One thing is certainly for sure, most of the time, the odds dictate that blackjack tables will eventually, at some point even out, wins and losses will balance out over a period of time, giving the house only around a five percent edge over the blackjack player. What the unknown is, is ‘when’ and ‘how long’ will it take for the money to come your way.
