[Pontoon,Spanish 21] Two 7s vs Dealer's 2

  7:58    Japanese Nokkie

This splitting might bring you great wealth.

Ohyoo-gozaimasu.

Good morning.

I'm a Japanese, Nokkie.

I have a habit of waking up early.

Actually I get up at about 6:00 these days.

First, I have breakfast, and then I make a video about blackjack.

It is silent outside, so I can do it comfortably.

Anyway, today I'm going to write about Pontoon, not Blackjack.

When a player's first hand is a pair of 7 and a dealer's initial card is 2, what action do you take?

In the basic strategy of Pontoon, split is recommended.

However, are many players willing to do it?

Some choose hit , and others choose stay.

I'm curious about whether split is the best of the three choices.

I conducted a practical test about this case and calculated the winning percentages for each.

▼Practical Test▼

After finishing the test, I found out that splitting the pair in this situation is better and much more interesting.

After splitting it, the player had many opportunities to double down.
Drawing a card of 4, he can try 11-double.
Drawing a card of 3, he can try 10-double.
The probability is unexpectedly high that they will happen.

In addition, the player succeeded in getting 678-21 three times out of 25 trials.
As you know, he is paid 1.5 times the original bet amount, just as Blackjack hand.

Therefore, there are some advantages in 7's split against 2.
I will definitely do it in a real casino.


That's all for today.
Thank you for reading and watching.
Have a good day.  Bye.
