Poker Versus Black Jack, Skill Versus Luck

By Joe Manonn


Most card games need an element of luck and none more so than Blackjack. A large part of the game is the luck with which the cards are dealt. More skill is needed when playing poker blackjack, as you make more decisions and play against more people.

If casinos are going to be serious about stopping gamblers from card counting, they need to be more thorough in the way they shuffle the cards. A well shuffled pack will baffle most established card counters, yet the casinos think that their system of shuffling quickly brings them more money. This may be true of new customers, but they are likely to lose out to experienced players.

Both games need an element of skill, but as you need different abilities for either game, it is more likely that a blackjack player will return to the other game rather than vice versa. It is important for players of both games to have other abilities on top of being able to count the cards.

While Las Vegas is a well known location for gambling, Monte Carlo is still the most popular place to play and also has the highest prices. There also many other locations around the world to play.

If your cards go over 21 you lose at blackjack, and that is the only way to win. There is some choice as an Ace can be counted as 0 or 11. Picture cards and the Ace are good cards to have, especially if some are of the same suit.

While there are good hands, there are also bad hands. These can include pairs of a low denomination, or cards with a gap of more than one. This way you need to hope you get a particular card, which out of a pack of 52 could take some time.

When it comes to playing online, we recommend to play free online first. This will help you to obtain necessary skills before entering real cash action. Search online for websites offering free blackjack sweepstakes for example. Another option is to play Facebook blackjack games. You can also find free blackjack application - just search for "Facebook Blackjack Sweepstakes" to find proper games. Good luck!
