Surrender in blackjack, though becoming quite rare in brick and mortar casinos, is a much-discussed topic in blackjack<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In games that allow the option of surrendering, players must know when and how to surrender in blackjack<\/strong> in order to minimize their potential loss in a particular game. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Surrender in Blackjack Explained<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Blackjack surrender is the option that allows the players to fold their blackjack hands and give up before drawing any cards.<\/strong> When a player decides to surrender, half of their original bet is returned to them and half is taken by the dealer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although there are several scenarios and rules associated with surrendering in blackjack, the best strategy<\/a> for a player to surrender is when the odds are clearly against them winning the hand. The player must signal the dealer by placing their index finger behind the bet. Most online casinos have the option of surrendering in blackjack.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Rules for Surrender in Blackjack<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The blackjack surrender rules are pretty simple and straightforward because all that the player needs to do is give up the hand after the initial two cards have been dealt. Blackjack players can greatly benefit from this move when they get a hand that is absolutely unfavorable in all respect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

By surrendering, a blackjack player can get back half of their money placed on a bet, however, they forfeit their ability to win the hand, even if the dealer busts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a blackjack variant<\/a>, it was introduced in the early 1980s in the Atlantic City casinos. There are two variations of surrender namely early surrender and late surrender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Early Surrender in Blackjack<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Early surrender in blackjack gives players the option of tossing away their cards right when the dealer shows an ace or a 10<\/strong> and is about to check if they have a blackjack. Early surrender is uncommon because it actually increases the rate of return to the player<\/a> by 0.39% and 0.24% if the dealer shows an ace and a 10 respectively. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When casinos allow an early surrender, they also put some rules in place that would help them win the edge back, for instance, allowing the dealer to take another card on soft 17. Players need to be very careful while choosing early surrender. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A blackjack hand<\/a> of hard 5 to 7, hard<\/a> 12 to 17, or pairs of 3<\/span>\u2660<\/span><\/span>, 6<\/span>\u2660<\/span><\/span>, 7<\/span>\u2660<\/span><\/span>, or 8<\/span>\u2660<\/span><\/span> when the dealer has an ace are situations worth taking an early surrender for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Late Surrender in Blackjack<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Late surrender is different from early surrender in that players can forfeit their hand and lose half of their bet only after the dealer has checked his hand for blackjack<\/strong>. When late surrender is used optimally in a 6 deck blackjack game, the house edge drops by almost 20%, which is a lot in favor of the player. Therefore, late surrender, whenever available, should be chosen as an effective tool for decreasing the house edge<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
