We’re kicking off our new podcast with an introduction to Blackjack, arguably the most popular casino game in the UK.   

In this episode, which is aimed at both beginners and anyone who wants to know more about the game, Dan Grant explains how Blackjack works and why good strategy is the secret to success. 

This episode covers the rules of the game from the basics to hidden but important rules that even experienced players can miss. We talk about hand values, bet sizing, the house edge and most important of all, how to play your hand.  

What’s in this episode 

• The basics of Blackjack 
• Why every rule matters 
• How to play your hand 
• Bankroll management 
• The truth about the house edge 
• Essential strategy tips 

Although anyone can play blackjack, most players still don’t maximize their chances when they play. Dan looks at the role of luck and skill, and why you’ll never get the advertised house edge unless you follow the best strategies.  

By the end of this episode, you’ll leave with some simple but effective tips you can use immediately to get the best possible return next time you play.
