Decision Review

Blackjack strategy simulator

Choose how to bet, build your own hand strategy, and see how a simulated bankroll changes over thousands of rounds. No account required.

1. Set your bankroll and bets

Strategy guide: rules, examples, pros and cons. Bets are capped at the table limit. A run stops when the next bet is unaffordable.

2. Customize hand decisions

Start with your selected playing strategy, then override specific hands against a dealer upcard. Pair overrides take priority over totals. Overrides apply whenever that hand occurs, including after a hit. Unavailable actions fall back to the selected playing strategy.

    Rules and how to read the results

    Six decks, reshuffled between rounds with 1–1.5 decks left. Dealer stands on soft 17 and checks for blackjack before player actions. Blackjack pays 3:2; other wins pay 1:1. Up to four split hands and doubling after non-ace splits. Split aces receive one card each and cannot be hit, doubled or re-split. Split 21 is not a natural blackjack. Late surrender applies only to the original two-card hand.

    Amounts are whole dollars. Half-bet payouts and insurance round down to the nearest dollar, matching Practice. The table limit caps opening bets; splits and doubles can increase total exposure. A round is one opening deal and can resolve several split hands.

    Charts show sampled cumulative profit/loss and counts of profitable, losing and break-even rounds. Maximum drawdown uses every completed round, measured from the previous bankroll peak. One random run is an illustration, not an expected return or a guarantee of future profit. Betting progressions do not remove the house edge.

    Only the run’s settings, seed, summary and up to 502 chart points are saved on the server. Individual hands are discarded. Signed-in runs are associated with your account; anonymous runs have no account association. Practice statistics are separate.
