The "Wings" strategy for playing blackjack

The number of different types of blackjack is amazing. Different casinos offer plenty of variations of this exciting game. There is always something special, but there is also something in common. In this chapter, we will cover most of that "common" aspects, that is, original, standard version of blackjack, which is the basis of the game.

We need this understanding to study the basic blackjack strategy, which is also the basis for further professional growth.

As it's been said, the ground of conscious playing is mathematics, science. Any scientific discoveries always come from certain assumptions, hypotheses.

The hypothesis that allowed mathematicians to formulate a scientifically verified "basic strategy" is the hypothesis of evenness. In this chapter, I will briefly describe what it is. After this, you will understand better how the basic strategy is arranged and how we can distinguish mathematically correct decisions from mistaken ones.

The task of a blackjack player is to collect a combination of cards as close to 21 points as possible. Therefore, the main and most frequent decision that has to be made while playing is taking additional cards.

In this chapter I will tell you when and in what situations you need to do this, and when you should better stop. Even with a very weak hand. Yes, sometimes it's mathematically more beneficial.

In this chapter we will look at other possible player's options and learn how to apply them correctly.

The basic strategy always proposes to take a particular action only if it can bring an additional advantage to the player (for example, an increased expected winning or a reduced expected loss).

At the same time, the logic of the game shows that it is better not to use any additional actions at all, than to use them at random, at the wrong moment. Mistakes with split, double and surrender are very expensive for the player.

All people are different, each has its own temperament and playing style. Moreover, the blackjack rules allow the player to use one or several boxes for betting. Even to engage all boxes on the table.

In this chapter I will try to answer what is more beneficial from the point of view of mathematics.

PS. Just a little spoiler - try to better memorize what will be said in this chapter. This will be very useful in the second section of the course.

Suppose, you've learned basic blackjack strategy. Suppose, you decide to use it. What does it give you? What winning can you expect? And can you expect something generally?

In this chapter, I will give precise mathematical calculations of what estimated winning/loss awaits us in specific game situations. You will also learn what average winning you can expect by applying the basic strategy in general. In an endless game, or at least in a long run.

It is quite difficult to find a purely standard blackjack in the current realities. Different casinos offer a wide variety of modifications to the rules of this game. Some of them increase the chances of the player, and some are created only for the benefit of the casino.

In this chapter I will analyze several, the most typical modifications. After studying this chapter, you will learn how to determine in advance, what blackjack tables are better to avoid, and which ones make sense to play.

You will also receive the necessary changes in the basic strategy for a certain blackjack modification. Because under different conditions, different actions will be considered optimal from the point of view of mathematics.

Any idea comes to a man through experience, mistakes and thinking. And to get from point A to point B, you need to create a logical chain. If at least one element in this chain is false, then the final conclusion will also be mistaken.

In this chapter, I invite you on an exciting journey through the route of my logic. I'm sure many of you thought about the similar things while playing. But not everyone came to the same conclusions. Let's check our reasonings.

Specificity of the basic strategy is that it only offers the optimal solution in a particular game position. It doesn't consider situations where we get into a bad times and start losing. After all, an equality of the game doesn't mean that loss is excluded.

My strategy offers an effective and quite tricky solution what to do if we suffer losses. How should we win back the lost money?

In this chapter I will consider the general principle, which the correct betting order should be based on, so that the risk of losing will be minimized. You'd be surprised what blackjack rule pushed me to this simple idea.

In this chapter we will analyze such a thing as the "gray zone". I invented this name myself and perhaps someone won't like it. But the name is not important, the essence is important.

The so-called "grey zone" is common and familiar to anyone who has played blackjack. However, for my strategy, it plays a very important role, because it helps to defeat our main enemy. How?

Study this chapter and find out how the "grey zone" may be useful for the gambler, aimed to profitable playing.

Not in everything, but mostly, the "Wings" strategy consists in a spesific order of bets. This is especially important when the player has a goal to recoup and tries to return the lost cheeps. And to do this, he raises the bets, risking more and the bigger amounts of money.

The proposed order of bets not only minimizes our risks, but it is one more method to defeat our main enemy and stay in the game.

This topic is, perhaps, one of the most difficult aspects of my strategy, so try to study this chapter with increased attention.

In this chapter I've tried to summarize everything that has been said above regarding the "Wings" strategy. So that each of you obtain a holistic, clear and understandable algorithm of actions that must be applied during the game.

Also, in this chapter I will touch some additional, however not so essential aspects, that I haven't talked about earlier.

Therefore, even if you understand everything from the previous reasoning, don't ignore this chapter.

This is probably the most exciting chapter, where we will watch the implementation of the "Wings" strategy in action. This will be a real session of online playing, where I'll demonstrate how my strategy works.

Take popcorn and support me. Even though I still win in the end. I always win.

Here I will try to summarize the most important and fundamental theses regarding my strategy.

And, of course, you will also listen a few words of gratitude for your priceless attention.
