I hear stories all the time of people who started playing Blackjack at university with friends, or in a local casino and as a result of that got into the online casino scene.  I’ve also heard stories saying the opposite.  People built up their confidence by playing in the comfort of their own homes; won a little lost a little, but had a much greater feeling for the great game of Blackjack, when it came to playing for real in a casino.

Whichever way round you do it and I don’t have the magic recipe for saying which is better, (and for the record it doesn’t really make much difference).  Tips can be got from both and help your Blackjack game in either arena.  There are things that you can do online, such as card counting, which if spotted could get you into trouble in an actual casino, but then you can take your skill for that from the virtual to the actual and be much more subtle about it.  It could be something really important like almost intuiting that you need to hold where you are, because the next card will bust you.

Blackjack is often considered a lucky game, where an amateur player can win big, more by luck than judgment.  In my experience that is only partly true.  Whether you play or Blackjack at a real or an online casino, there is a definite strategy to contend with and understand.  But as I said before, you can feed one set of Blackjack experiences, to improve your all-around game
