Blackjack Splitting Explained
When you play at Borgata in Atlantic City, most of the Blackjack dealers will tell you the best move you can make based on the hand you’re holding. But when you play online, you’re pretty much on your own. Knowing when to hit or stand is one thing, but figuring out when to split can be confusing. As a general rule, always split Aces and 8s. Never split 4s, 5s or 10s, unless you really feel like gambling. Splitting 9s is OK, as long as you’re not facing off against a 7, 10 or Ace. You can split 2s, 3s, 6s and 7s when going up against a 2 through 7. If you’ve got a 6 or a 7 and you’re facing off against a 7 or an Ace, go ahead and hit.

While these are great tips, you might want to develop your own style of play. Remember, our advice doesn’t guarantee you’ll win. Sometimes going against the rules could lead to a major victory. If you’ve got a gut feeling, it doesn’t hurt to go for it. We recommend practicing your game for free first. Your BorgataCasino.com account gives you access to the free tables, so create an account and have a blast without the risk.
