Blackjack table

I have a hard 20 against a dealer 6, which is a very strong hand and the dealer is in a weak position. Standing maximizes expected value.

Total 20 is a very strong hand against a dealer 5, so standing maximizes expected value without risking a good hand.

Hard 19 beats a dealer 6 upcard often enough; hitting or doubling risks busting a strong made hand. Standing is the correct basic strategy play.

With a hard 14 against a dealer 2, standing is the basic strategy play since the dealer is likely to bust or make a low total.

Dealer upcard 5 is a bust card, so standing with 15 maximizes expected value by avoiding a likely bust.

Total 13 vs dealer 8 is a hit per basic strategy; doubling is not appropriate for a hard 13.

Dealer shows a 6, a bust card, so standing on 14 is the basic strategy play to let the dealer draw and likely bust.

Hard 13 is below the standing threshold against a dealer 10 upcard, so hitting gives the best chance to improve while the dealer is likely to make a strong hand.

Soft 14 is weak against a dealer king; doubling is not profitable here, so I take a hit to improve the hand.

Hard 14 against a dealer 10 is a losing hand; hitting gives a better chance to improve than standing.

Hard 16 vs dealer 10, basic strategy says hit to try to improve the hand.

Total 20 is a very strong hand, and the dealer showing a jack is less likely to beat it. Splitting or doubling would risk a winning hand unnecessarily.

Hard 15 against a dealer queen is a losing hand; hitting gives the best chance to improve to 17 or better, while standing loses too often.

With a hard 13 against a dealer 10, hitting gives the best chance to improve without risking extra chips on a double.

Hard 16 vs dealer 10 is a hitting hand per basic strategy; standing gives too little chance to win, and doubling is too risky.

Splitting 6s against a dealer King is not favorable, and doubling on 12 versus a strong upcard is too risky, so hitting gives the best chance to improve the hand.

Standing on 18 against a dealer 10 avoids a high bust risk; hitting would bust roughly 77% of the time and is not worth the draw.

Soft 18 is a made hand and basic strategy says to stand against a dealer 8 when the dealer stands on soft 17. Hitting risks breaking a likely winning total.

Dealer upcard is 6, a bust card, so standing on 15 is optimal to avoid busting and let the dealer draw out.

Hard 14 against a dealer 10 is a losing hand; hitting gives the best chance to improve to 17 or better, while standing leaves too much risk.

Hard 12 vs dealer Ace is a stiff hand; basic strategy says to hit rather than stand or double, since doubling risks extra chips on a weak total and standing leaves us vulnerable to dealer's likely 17+ or blackjack.

Hitting 18 would bust on most cards, while standing gives a reasonable chance to win or push against the dealer's Ace without a blackjack.

Soft 17 is too weak against a dealer 9, and doubling is not favorable here, so hitting gives the best chance to improve without risking extra chips.

Hard 15 is a stiff hand against a dealer 9, and standing loses too often. Hitting gives a better chance to improve to a winning total.
