A variety of rules are offered at double exposure. Double exposure can be a good game for card counters. Several of the best money-making opportunities that have popped up in recent years have been for double exposure. Whenever you find double exposure with naturals paying 3:2, you probably have discovered a game worth playing. | Blackjack By Country | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Basic StrategyJulian Braun was the first to work out basic strategy for double exposure. His strategy applies when one deck is used, the dealer stands on soft seventeen, and you can double down after splitting. It appears on page 429 of Epstein's Theory of Gambling and Statistical Logic. Tables 14-16 contain generic basic strategy for double exposure with no double down after splitting, and are identical to the first three tables in the double-exposure chapter of Basic Blackjack. For basic strategy with double down after splitting, see the next three tables of Basic Blackjack.
Table 14 contains the part of basic strategy for double exposure that applies no matter what the dealer does on soft seventeen. Table 15 is the rest of basic strategy for use if the dealer stands on soft seventeen. Table 16 is the rest of basic strategy for use if the dealer hits soft seventeen. Thus a complete set of basic strategy for double exposure is table 14 plus either table 15 or table 16. There are important differences in strategy that depend on whether the dealer hits or stands on soft seventeen. One important difference is if the dealer stands on soft seventeen, then A-6 is played according to the column labeled 17 in table 14. If the dealer hits soft seventeen, there is a separate column for that hand (in table 16). The casino's edge for four or more decks, stand on soft seventeen, no re-splits, and naturals pay even money; is 0.2%. Naturals paying 3:2 gives you 2.3%. If you get paid though your natural is tied by the dealer's natural, you gain 0.2% (0.3% if naturals pay 3:2). Allowing re-splits gives the player 0.3%. Hitting soft seventeen gives the casino 0.4%. Being able to double down after splits gives the player 0.2%. Restricting doubling down to ten or eleven gives the casino 1.3%, of which 0.4% is for doubling on nine, and 0.9% is for doubling on less than nine. With soft eighteen against small dealer totals, it does not matter much whether you hit or stand if you cannot double. Eighteen is not a strong hand when the dealer wins ties. | Blackjack Software ProvidersBetSoft BlackjackMicroGaming BlackjackNetEnt BlackjackPlaytech BlackjackPlay’n Go BlackjackRTG BlackjackWMS BlackjackPlayson BlackjackNYX BlackjackEndorphina BlackjackiSoftBet Blackjack | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
