that's all fine and dandy except when you are playing on the $1 tables....some dude was getting all pissed when a friend of mine (female) wasn't hitting when she was 'supposed' to and staying when she 'should' have hit...
if you are gonna get all serious and sh!t, move up to the $5 tables....

This "She took the dealer's bust card" nonsense is just that. For every time she takes the bust card, she could easily be taking the dealers win card as well, or not hitting, and leaving the dealer a bust card.
Bad players don't change anything at a table. Your odds on each hand remain the same, no matter how many times they hit, or not.
The difference is not your odds, but what you SEE. You SEE the times they take what would have been a dealer bust card and this flips you out.
Just know it's irrational. Mind your own hand.

Can someone explain why? I thought this is called gambling. if everyone does the same thing everytime, is it still gambling? it's robots...

Darn it, you beat me to it. I don't understand that stupid line of thinking... "well, he took the dealers 10, he should have stayed" etc. Lets face it, if you want to really 'make the correct move', you'd get up and leave the table, as even perfect blackjack play nets you a loss in the long run.Originally posted by: Amused

I'm pretty certain that most people gamble to gain, not lose.

in the first scenario, odds are the dealer will pull a 10 giving him 16, then he will bust on the next card. yeah it's gambling but there's smart gambling and stupid gambling. just about every situation in blackjack has a "correct" play based on the percentages.
