It should be pointed out that the use of the basic blackjack strategy does not mean that a player will win every single hand when playing this way. It is important to understand this point in order to avoid initial disappointment. A player should also bear in mind that this is not a magical system and that it is based on probabilities. It obviously has no effect on what card may be dealt to the player or to the dealer as this is determined by the random number generator (RNG) that is incorporated into the online blackjack game software. It is generally believed however, that in the long run, the basic blackjack strategy can be a good way to play online blackjack.
