I almost got into a fight at the Hard Rock Seminole Casino in Florida.

      It is to your advantage to take 1 hit on 12 against a dealer card of 2 or 3. Assuming every card is equally likely to come, you have 4 cards than won't do shit for you (A,2,3,4), 5 cards that will give you at least 17 (5,6,7,8,9), and 4 cards that will bust you (10,J,Q,K). You also know the dealer will take at least 1 more hit regardless of what they have in the hole.

      So you basically take the hit knowing you will bust about 31% of the time and get at least 17 about 38% of the time. The remaining 31% of the time your hand won't matter because you need the dealer to bust for you to win. So 69% of the time your hand gets better or stays equivalent by hitting rather than standing.

              two factors should come into play;

              * what is the rest of the table doing? all with < 17 and sticking?
              * guy with big bet, what is he showing, did he take a card?

              if everyone is staying you should have stayed and all live or died together imho

                So if you had 12 and the dealer was showing a 7 and a big bettor stood on 16 and everyone else stood on their stiffs then you would stand on your 12 so that you could all live or die together?
