    • Ace 7 Stand if the dealer has 2, 7 or 8. Double 3 -thru 6 - otherwise hit.
    • Ace 8 or Ace 9 Always Stand

    How to Play Pairs


    If you have a pair of:

    • Aces or 8's Always split.
    • 2's or 3's Split if the dealer has 2 - 7, otherwise hit.
    • 4's Split if the dealer has 4 or 5 - otherwise hit.
    • 5's Double if the dealer has 2 thru 9 - otherwise hit.
    • 6's Split if the dealer has 2 thru 6 - otherwise hit.
    • 7's Split 2 thru 7 - otherwise hit.
    • 9's Split 2 thru 6, and 8 or 9. Stand if the dealer has 7, 10 or Ace.

    Whatever you take from the advice above, make sure you remember the following for points


    1. Always split a pair of aces.
    2. Always split a pair of 8s.
    3. Always stand on 17 and up
