There are special moves in blackjack that are offered to players as choices. Two of these moves are double and split. Blackjack approach states how and when these moves should be made. These approaches have been developed after replicating hundreds of thousands of blackjack hands.

In the double move, once a player observes his dealt hand and the dealer's original card he could double his original wager. But when a player doubles he needs to take one and just single extra card. The blackjack approach of whether or not to double is subject to the player's present hand worth, the dealer's face up card and whether the player boasts a soft or a hard total. A soft total is one in which the ace can take the worth of 11. A hard total either has no ace or the ace automatically takes the worth of 1. An outline of the double approach is given below.

If the player boasts a soft 13 or 14, then he should double when the dealer's face up card is a five or a six. If the player gets a soft 15 or 16 then he should double when the dealer's face up card is a four, five or six. If the player has a soft 17 then he should double when the dealer's face up card is a three, four, five or six. If the player has a soft eighteen then he should double when the dealer's face up is a two, three, four, five or six. If the player has a hard 11 he should double each time. If the player has a hard 10 he should double for the all time, excluding when the dealer's face up card is a ten or an ace. If the player has a hard 9 then he should double when the dealer's face up card is a three, four, five or six.

The split move rolls up into play as the player is dealt two cards of the equal rank. The player can split the two cards as distinct hands, lay a further matching bet and play two hands. The split approach is subject to the player's current hand worth and the dealer's face up card. A review of the split approach is given below.

If the player is dealt a pair of twos or threes then he should split when the dealer's face up card is a four, five, six or seven. If the player is dealt a pair of sixes then he should split when the dealer's face up card is a three, four, five or six. If he player is dealt a pair of sevens then he should split when the dealer's face up card is a two, three, four, five, six or seven. If the player is dealt a pair of nines then he should split when the dealer's face up card is between a two and a nine. If the player is dealt a pair of eights or aces then he should split at each time.
