LCB Blackjack Game Instructions

A free Blackjack game that teaches blackjack strategy while you play. High score list, bonus round, contest, and more.

1.) Select your rule Variations up top. For more information on what each different rule does to the House Edge please visit the Blackjack House Edge Calculator at our sister site Wizard Of Odds.

2.) If you wish to be notified if you are going to make an incorrect play, simply check the, “Warn on Errors,” box.

3.) Select the number of decks you wish to play with, you may select anywhere from 1-8, though most casinos play with either 1, 2, 6 or 8.

4.) Select, “Double after Split,” if you wish to be given the option to Double Down after splitting cards. We recommend finding the rules for the casino that you'll be playing at and playing that way so you learn the proper decisions.

5.) Select, “Surrender,” if you wish to be able to Surrender after the dealer has peeked for Blackjack. Again, we recommend playing with the same rules as you would in your online or brick and mortar casino of choice.

6.) Select whether the dealer hits or stands on Soft 17, to better facilitate improving your game, we again suggest playing under the set of rules of the casino that you might visit.

7.) Select any amount between $1-$1,000 to bet simply by clicking on the chips. If you make the wrong bet, you may hit, “Clear Bet,” otherwise click, “Deal.”

8.) As appropriate, you will be given options for Insurance if the dealer has an ace. HINT: Insurance is ALWAYS the wrong decision unless you're counting cards or hole carding.

9.)After your cards are dealt, you will be given the choice to Surrender, Hit, Stand or Double. When there is a potential for splitting cards, you will also be given the option to split.

10.) You can hit, “Advice,” if you don't know the correct decision. However, if you have, “Warn on Strategy Errors,” on, it will tell you if you're making a mistake.

11.)After completing a hand, you may hit, “New Hand,” “Rebet,” or “Rebet and Deal.”

• New Hand: You must place a new bet and then deal the cards.
• Rebet: The original wager from the last hand will be placed automatically, you can then clear it or add to it before the cards are dealt.
• Rebet and Deal: Your original wager from the previous hand will be made again, and the cards will automatically be dealt out.

12.)If you change any rules, the balance will be reset.

About This Game and Frequently Asked Questions:

FAQ's:

Q: I noticed that sometimes the advice offered in this game is not optimal play, particularly in single and double deck, why is that?

A: This game is designed to keep the count of the deck and to offer advice based upon deck-composition strategy according to where the count is at. If you want to reset the deck, then you can do that by refreshing the page.

NOTE: As cards are removed from the deck, the correct decision changes and will often deviate from basic strategy. You'll see this most frequently when playing single or double-deck Blackjack, but even when playing eight decks, there are often changes to strategy decisions based upon the count.

Q: What if I just want to learn Basic Strategy?

A: The first thing that you can do is reload the page anytime you want and that will reset the deck as if no cards had been dealt out. It will also reset your balance.

The second thing that you can do is play using eight decks, while that does change strategy significantly from single-deck strategy, you have to get pretty deep into an eight deck shoe before the count justifies any significant strategy changes.

Finally, you could visit this page and it will tell you the correct Basic Strategy decision for any hand as if the game were not counting.

If you keep the count, then comparing the strategy adjustments our game recommends to regular basic strategy will help you become a much better card counter.

If you just want to play based on Basic Strategy, then you could turn off, “Warn on Errors,” and the game will not tell you if you are making a mistake based upon the count.

This is our first blackjack game and trainer and I'm proud to finally add our version 2 with enhanced graphics and the ability to learn how to count cards to my website. The game is mostly self-explanatory. If you make an inferior play, the game will warn you first. I recommend that before you play for real money both online in person that you practice on the game until you very rarely are warned you a making an inferior play. If doubling or splitting is mathematically the correct play, but you don't have enough chips, the game will give the best advice for what you can afford to do. Do not change rules mid-hand. If you do, the change will not take effect until the next hand. The advice is based on my own analysis and basic strategy tables for one, two, and four+ decks. The deck(s) is(are) shuffled after every hand.

If you find any bugs, please contact me. A screenshot would be appreciated if you claim the game is misplaying a hand. I get a lot of incorrect reports that the advice given is incorrect. This usually can be explained by the user not using the correct basic strategy for the rules selected. I have also had many comments about the advice on a player 16, composed of 3 or more cards, against a 10. As a rule of thumb, the player should stand in that situation. However, that is a basic strategy exception. The game only knows basic strategy. Also, please note that it is a standard blackjack rule that split aces get one card each. If one of them is a ten, it is not a blackjack, it is just 21 points. That is how blackjack is usually played.

I would like to thank JB for his outstanding work on this game, and Dingo Systems for the cards.
