Choosing a Blackjack Table

Whenever you find yourself in a physical casino, or on the Internet and looking to play some blackjack, you will be faced with the choice of which blackjack table to play at. A lot of blackjack players consider a lot of various factors when looking at sitting down and playing at a blackjack table. Some of the blackjack players will look at the specific blackjack dealer dealing at the blackjack table, before finally choosing it, some blackjack players will look at and study the blackjack players sitting at and playing at a specific blackjack table before sitting down and playing at that blackjack table. Some of the blackjack players will look at the amount of blackjack chips the blackjack dealer has in his or her chip tray, some blackjack players may look at how many blackjack chips the blackjack players at a specific blackjack table have in front of them, before choosing to sit down and play at a specific blackjack table. Some of the blackjack players will stand and watch to see how well the already seated blackjack players are doing at a specific blackjack table, how well they play the game, how well they are doing, as far as winning chips or losing chips, etc.

It is very important to remember, when looking for a good blackjack table to sit down and play at, to make sure to be looking at the table wager limits of the tables. For example, some blackjack tables may have blackjack betting limits which have a minimum blackjack bet of five dollars per blackjack hand and some may have much higher table minimum wager bets, such as twenty five dollars per blackjack hand, or even a hundred dollars per blackjack hand, minimum bet. Table maximum betting limits are not as important, unless you are a hard core blackjack player that might very well find yourself having the urge to wager a lot of money per blackjack hand.

Most casinos that you drive to have more female blackjack dealers than they do male blackjack dealers, from what I have seen, it is usually two thirds female blackjack dealers versus one third male blackjack dealers. This is most likely due to the fact that history has shown that the majority of blackjack players that play blackjack in a casino are male and quite a few of those male blackjack players prefer female blackjack dealers. From a male blackjack dealer’s personal point of view, it is a double edged sword, it is a little bit of a challenge getting jobs at a casino as a blackjack dealer, being a male blackjack dealer, but once in, the male blackjack dealer is most likely working with mostly female blackjack dealers. Casinos that you drive to also hire more female blackjack dealers than male blackjack dealers, most likely because the casino management believes that female blackjack dealers can be a little more sympathetic, or compassionate towards the blackjack players when they are losing, and feel the urge to try and comfort the losing blackjack players, where as some casino management theories are that the male blackjack dealers most likely just don’t empathize enough for the losing blackjack players.

If you are one of those many blackjack players that look for the blackjack tables where the blackjack dealer has few chips in the chip tray, implying that the blackjack table has been losing and the blackjack players have been winning, it is very important to remember, if the blackjack table has a lot of blackjack chips in the chip tray, it may not be because the house is winning at that blackjack table and the blackjack players are losing, it may be just because the blackjack players have won a lot of chips on that blackjack table and have put the blackjack chips in their pockets and the blackjack dealer ran low on blackjack chips in his or her chip tray and needed more. It could also be because it is close to shift change and the casino pit boss thought it best to top off each of the blackjack table’s chip tray before leaving the casino for the day. It could also be because it is just after shift change and the incoming casino pit boss decided to fill all of the chip trays on all of the blackjack tables, to try and avoid needing to fill them up later.

If you are one of the many blackjack players that only look for blackjack tables where the blackjack players have a lot of blackjack chips in front of them, there are a couple things you should try to keep in mind as well. For example, a blackjack table where all of the blackjack players have a lot of blackjack chips in front of them, does not always mean that the blackjack players at that table are doing nothing but winning, in fact it could just mean that they bought in for a lot of money and are just now starting to win back some of the very chips they have lost along the way, but are still most likely down quite a bit of cash at that blackjack table. An other example would be, just because a blackjack table full of blackjack players with few or no blackjack chips in front of them, does not mean that the blackjack players at that table are doing nothing but losing, they could just be simply putting all of their blackjack chips in their pocket, to try and discourage any other of the blackjack players from thinking the blackjack table is a winning blackjack table and jumping in and ruining what ever streak the existing blackjack players may have been on.

If you are one of those many blackjack players that will stand and watch a blackjack table, before sitting down a the blackjack table and playing, to see if the blackjack players are winning money or losing money, there is a couple of important things you may also want to remember as well. For instance, if you stand and watch a blackjack table for just a few minutes, or even a shoe or two and you find the blackjack players are winning more hands than they are losing, that does not always mean that they have been winning like that all day at that blackjack table, it could very well be the first little winning streak those blackjack players have been on all day. You should also try to keep in mind, that even if those blackjack players have been winning all day at that blackjack table, that if you sit down at that blackjack table and decide to play at that blackjack table, that does not mean you too will also start winning like those other blackjack players are. In fact, it could very well work out to be the exact opposite, maybe the very change in the number of blackjack hands at that blackjack table could change the entire rhythm of that blackjack table and everyone, including you, could start losing money, hand after hand.

In the very end, I believe that when choosing a blackjack table to sit down and play at should very much be based on the comfort of the blackjack table limits and not so much the comfort you fee you have with the blackjack dealer him or herself, because it is very important to remember, a lot of casinos will change the blackjack dealer on each of the blackjack tables anywhere from every twenty minutes to every hour, and the very blackjack dealer at your table may go on to an other table, somewhere all the way on the opposite side of the casino. An other very good variable to try and keep in mind is the blackjack players at the blackjack table already, it is sometimes good to have good chemistry with those blackjack players, because after all, you are there at the casino to hopefully have a very good time and enjoy yourself, so you should certainly try to surround yourself with blackjack players that are a lot of fun to be around.
