Tips for Blackjack
To improve your blackjack game, learn basic strategy, always split aces and 8s, double down on 11 against dealer's 2-10, stand on 12-16 against dealer's 2-6, and avoid insurance bets.

Splitting aces gives you two chances to make a strong hand, and splitting 8s helps you avoid a weak total of 16.
So you have 2 Aces Split them, you now have 2 hands each with an ace.
So you have 1 Eights, instead of 16, split them, you now have 2 hands each with an eight. Getting points 9, 10, 11 would be a good thing.
Lets say you have 2 10s, that is a 20, dealer can match, get 21, come up short or bust.

Your 2 cards equal 12 to 16, the dealer is showing anywhere from 2 through 6, stand.

You have 11 points, double down. Sure, you will only get 1 more card,7, 8, 9, 10, J, Q, K that is 7 cards that can make a strong hand with 4 of them 21. A, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 are against you, but you have 11 so you have at least one of these and maybe 2 of them, this means you have better than 50/50 and up to 16 of those cards make 21, up to 12 that make a strong hand. Dealer will stand on 17 and up and will hit on a soft 17 (Ace 6 is soft). So, if dealer is showing a 6 and has an Ace then dealer hits. Dealer is showing a 5 will always take a hit, meaning 7 though K busts.

Dealer tends to lose at those times so it is mostly safe to stand on 12 and up. Dealer is showing a 7 through 10 pointer, well, the dealer has a good chance to win the higher it is so if you see a 7 you can expect a 17, a queen, you can expect a 20, does not mean the hole card is a benefit but odds are greater it is. So you hit on 14, 15, 16 and risk busting or stand and accept the chances are you will lose.

12 and 13 you will typically always hit on, a 14 really depends on what the dealer is showing but taking a hit the odds are slightly in your favor, but if you hit lower than 8 you increase your odds to win and I would, but not on 15 where the favor goes to the dealer.

Lastly, set you mark, you will win up to X amount and stop or lose Y amount and stop. When winning you begin to feel invincible and take un-required risks. If you are on a losing streak, the mantra of one more and your luck will turn will not turn your luck because it will be one more again and again.

Avoid chasing losses or over-betting when you're on a winning streak, sure, you can afford it but a few fails and you are chasing losses.

The LVGC did a investigation of this software when released ... none of it is considered "gaming" under their definitions of gambling which is what they use the term for.

I don't know what the heck your point is, gambling has been around since the dawn of time and most Humans understand the concept and how it works.

My point is simple ...
NOTHING in GTA5 is .... gambling ... as defined by the LVGC.
The outcomes are predetermined at the start , not during or after ...
As determined by the LVGC
