Ask Frank: Double on 12 in Blackjack?

2 Jul 2004

By Frank Scoblete

Hi, Frank,

When I have a 12 and the dealer has a 3 showing, should I double down? All I need is an 9 or under to have a good chance of beating him.

I was sitting in the last seat next to the dealer. It worked for me at Foxwoods. I got bad vibes and stares from the other players though.

What do you think of doubling down on a 12 when the dealer has a low card showing?

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Doubling on a 12 is suicide.

All the best!
Frank
