Biggest Myths about Blackjack

Myth #5: Always [hit, stand or double] when you have [this hand]

Optimal blackjack strategy involves a lot of grey-area decisions. Online blackjack players who approach the game with a simple black-and-white strategy often make small mistakes. For example, many players love harboring the philosophy that you never hit on 16. While a 16 is the worst hand you can be dealt in blackjack, you will actually hit it more often than you will stand with it.
