Roulette, blackjack and table games

Can I split ten-value cards in blackjack?

Direct answer

Rules often allow it, but standard basic strategy generally advises keeping a hard 20 rather than splitting.

How to use this answer

This answer is based on the mathematical principle or published rule identified in the source below. If the question involves a live betting market, confirm its settlement definition before applying it to a specific bet.

Separate the game’s mathematical probabilities from the casino’s house procedure. The odds may be calculable even where split, surrender, side-bet or payout policies differ between tables.
