Dealer’s odds on 6 & 8 decks

Posted on July 19th, 2005 by brother9 in Blackjack, Card Counting, Casino Gambling

Some time ago I posted a small chart outlining the odds of a dealer making certain hands in a single-deck game.

But it’s for a single-deck game. Where I usually play, most games are either 6 or 8 decks, so I should post the odds for those games:

For the 6 deck game:

Final:
17
18 19 20 21 “Natural”
Blackjack
Bust
Up card:
2
14.0% 13.4% 13.0% 12.4% 11.8% n/a 35.4%
3 13.4% 13.1% 12.5% 12.1% 11.5% n/a 37.4%
4 13.1% 12.4% 12.1% 11.6% 11.2% n/a 39.6%
5 12.2% 12.2% 11.8% 11.2% 10.8% n/a 41.8%
6 16.6% 10.6% 10.6% 10.2% 9.7% n/a 42.3%
7 36.9% 13.8% 7.8% 7.9% 7.4% n/a 26.2%
8 12.9% 36.0% 12.9% 6.9% 7.0% n/a 24.4%
9 12.0% 11.7% 35.2% 12.0% 6.1% n/a 22.9%
10 12.1% 12.1% 12.1% 36.8% 3.8% 7.7% 23.0%
Ace 18.8% 18.9% 18.9% 18.9% 7.7% 30.9% 16.7%

And for the 8 deck game:

Final:
17
18 19 20 21 “Natural”
Blackjack
Bust
Up card:
2
14.0% 13.5% 13.0% 12.4% 11.8% n/a 35.4%
3 13.5% 13.1% 12.5% 12.1% 11.5% n/a 37.4%
4 13.1% 12.5% 12.1% 11.7% 11.2% n/a 39.6%
5 12.2% 12.2% 11.8% 11.2% 10.8% n/a 41.8%
6 16.6% 10.6% 10.6% 10.2% 9.7% n/a 42.3%
7 36.9% 13.8% 7.9% 7.9% 7.4% n/a 26.2%
8 12.9% 36.0% 12.9% 6.9% 7.0% n/a 24.4%
9 12.0% 11.8% 35.2% 12.0% 6.1% n/a 22.9%
10 12.1% 12.1% 12.1% 36.9% 3.8% 7.7% 23.0%
Ace 18.8% 18.9% 18.9% 18.9% 7.8% 30.9% 16.7%

That’s it. As you can see the tables aren’t that different between the 6 and 8 deck shoes, but in some cases it’s enough to make a long-run dent in your bank.
