Blackjack Strategy Dealer Shows 2

PinkJack
Hi. I'm familiar with Basic Strategy which says Double 11 if dealer shows 2-10.
However, if I'm dealt an Ace where the dealer is showing a low card (assume 4).
Should I double on the Ace (following basic strategy for 11). Or should I hit (because I might get an Ace pair) ?
- 6-deck game
- Liberal Vegas Rules
Thank you :)

Have you found a game that allows you to double down after being dealt one card and you already can see one dealer card? If so, Axel is on his way to your town....michael99000

Blackjack strategy card freeIs this a special blackjack variation where if your first card is an Ace you can tell the dealer to stop dealing ?
What is your other card ?

I just returned from my first trip to the casino. I think player can surrender/double after the first card.
I'll update this thread after my next visit. (Which will be 3-months from now)

BlackjackI have never heard of that rule variation, and frankly I doubt it exists.
If it does exist then you would:
Surrender a 4,5, or 6 vs. a dealer Ace.
Doubling:
The rules for doubling with an Ace would depend upon what happens when you get a blackjack with the 2nd card. Would the payout be 3:2 for the doubled bet?

Otherwise, you would certainly double a Ten vs 2-9. Since this is almost 19% of all the hands dealt to player, I believe that this rule would change the odds to be significantly in favor of the player.
So many better men, a few of them friends, were dead. And a thousand thousand slimy things lived on, and so did I.

Just name the casino. It should be pretty obvious the opportunities made a rookie mistake. We all have done similar.

It may be Triple Attack Blackjack where you get opportunities to add a bet. If so the strategy is here -- https://wizardofodds.com/games/triple-attack-blackjack/

Hey. It's not triple attack blackjack. Just regular blackjack.
Blackjack pays 3:2
I remember making a call as soon as the first card was dealt. Maybe it was the dealer asking if I wanna surrender.
Since it was my first time and I was nervous using basic strategy. I might have mixed up the details. Either ways, I'll update this thread after my next visit. Cheers! :)
And thanks all for the response !
