The Split options
If you have two cards of the same value, instead of dealing you can split them. This option will allow you to double your bet and deal only when there is a break or the cards look favorable. You should never split cards that are 10 or 5 in value but it is best to split 8 and 7 against the dealer's cards if they are equal or of a lower value. You should always split cards with the value of 2 or 3 against the dealer's cards 4, 5 or 6. It is important to note that you should always split Aces but never split Kings, Queen and jacks cards (faces).

This can be a strategy to shift some percentage of the house advantage towards you.
