Soft 16 play?
soft 16 against a dealer 10 gets all the hype for “always hit” but i get why people are tempted to stand. you’ve already got a decent chance to bust, plus sometimes it just feels like the dealer has you beat no matter what. i used to hit without even thinking, just like the chart says, but lately i wonder if the math changes when you play with crypto and fast hands online. does deck penetration or speed of hands matter at all? i see some people standing and honestly, they don’t seem to go bust as often, but they lose quietly. anyone else watching real game flow to make the decision, or just stick to the chart?

Noooo, speed isn’t the thing. The bonus rollover is. Every no commission blackjack promo I chased just made the same bad volume look busier.
rollover's not the whole irritation tbh. fast online hands just make bad poker-brain instincts feel smart sooo people stand and bleed slower.
I think you’re giving speed too much credit, man, Live Dealer with a professional dealer is slower than european blackjack auto, and people still get cute. Side Bet buttons do more damage.
Poker brain isn't the culprit by itself!!! Speed tables just hide the slow bleed better. I've watched soft stands die after the shuffle plenty
