Strategy table
It is very important to remember that during this Playboy Casino game the counting of cards will not help you win hands or beat the Dealer because play involves using at total of eight standard card decks. You must decide what you next play will be using three pieces of information: your two face up cards and the dealer's one face up card. On the other hand the Dealer, or computer, uses the same information to determine the likelihood of you producing a winning outcome through statistical analysis.
The following rules will apply for Playboy Casino rules:
1. Each hand will be played with a total of 8 standard card decks
2. Cards will be shuffled after play
3. The Dealer must stand on all 17's
4. You may double down once hands have been split
5. You may only split a hand once; there will be no re-splitting
6. Surrender is not an option
7. Each split Ace is only eligible for one extra card
Basic strategy is usually printed as tables with the dealer's up card the first row and your two card combination the first column. The other entries in the table tell you what to do (Stand, Hit, Double-Down, Split) with the different combinations of dealer and player's hands.
