I want to start a Blackjack game in my house with some friends. They come over every night and will play $1-5 a hand.

Can you give me some tips and rules I should implement to give myself a greater advantage and make more money, such as hitting or standing on 17, rules of splitting, how many decks to be used in my favor, etc?

If your table limits are $1-$5, I would imagine you would need to keep at least a couple of thousand dollars on hand in case varience swings the wrong way for you.

Yeah I'm going to have $500+ just in case I have a bad swing.

I misread it, I thought you wrote a couple hundred.
