How Do You Split In Blackjack
US Players and Credit Card, BitCoin Deposits Accepted!
Splitting in blackjack is pretty easy once you get the hang of it. If you are dealt a pair, you may have the option to ‘split’ it to form to two hands. Once you split, you will be dealt two new cards and carry on betting on both hands. So, a second wager will be placed, equal to your original bet. Let’s take the following example: Suppose. Should You Split Fours? The only time you'll split 4's is when the dealer upcard is a 5 or a 6. A pair of 4's is a hard total of 8, which gives you a good chance of catching an 18 for your finishing total, which is a reasonable hand. If you’ve ever played blackjack, you already know that if you get two identical cards in a hand, you can split them into two separate hands. This action is referred to as a “split”. These two hands are then treated as two separate players. Each of them may be split again (in case of getting another identical card) or doubled. Whenever you split a pair of eights each eight receives a new card and becomes a separate hand. You can then act on that hand according to the rules of blackjack by hitting, standing, or doubling down. You can even split the eights a second or third time. This is how aces and eights are handled at the blackjack table according to basic strategy.

What Numbers Do You Split In Blackjack
Split the two's versus a dealer two through seven, and hit the two's versus a dealer eight or better.

Reasoning
We assume the dealer has a ten in the hole. If the dealer's total is 12 through 17, and we wind up with a 14, then we have a good chance of the dealer busting on the 12 through 16, and we have a good chance of outdrawing the dealer if she has a 17.

And if the dealer has an eight or better, the chances are really way in her favor, so we shouldn't put additional money in action.
