Here’s another situation that could occur with pairs if the casino rules either don’t allow replits, or if they do, but you have split up to a maximum of four hands. If it were a two-card A-7, you would double down against a 4 however, since the A-7 is actually three cards, and you can’t double down, you stand. You now have A-3-4, which you should consider as A-7. You hit (per the blackjack chart or table), and draw a 4. And so you should stand.įor soft hands, since you can’t double down on more than two cards, any total that would have resulted in a double down, were it only two cards, now must become a hit or stand decision.įor example, suppose you are dealt an A-3 against a dealer’s 4 upcard. If you look up the strategy for 15 against a 2 (table or chart), it states to “stand” against a dealer’s 2.

The strategy charts and tables state “hit.” You draw a 3 and you now have 15 against a dealer’s 2. (In other words, play the multi-card hand as if it were an original two-card holding.)įor example, suppose you are dealt a 9-3 against a dealer’s 2 upcard in a six-deck game with Soft 17 and DAS. Note: The blackjack strategy charts lists the player’s two-card hand total and a possible multi-card hand total as a result of hitting a previously different hand one or more times.
