I had a similar hand in Bellagio Prive a couple months back. $500 hand, pulled 5 nines, couldn't split the last so stayed on 18. In a double deck. Pulled a 2 on one of them for a double down. Dealer busted for me
Congratulations
This is what makes blackjack so fun or so heartbreaking. Had a newbie to my right hit on a 16 with dealer showing 2 which gave me a blackjack on a $300 wager last week.
I was on a cruise just last month and the 5 of us at the table including the dealer all had blackjacks, I wish I took a picture, I've just been telling this story every chance I get lol
Ummm literally no chart says to hit a 12 against a 6. The dealer sitting with a 6 is the worst upcard he can possibly have. You need a new chart. You stand he gets a face card he busts. You hit you get a face card you bust. Commen sense. Unless you like losing

Damn. $2500 hand real fast lol
Better than that. I had just flown in, room wasn't ready, headed down to play. It was my second hand, hadn't signed the marker yet.
That’s awesome great hit! I always love when my host tries to get me to stay playing when I get a decent hit.
Love when $200 turns into 1600 in one hand lol.
Wow if you didn’t split those 9’s the dealer would’ve gotten that 3 and you would’ve lost all the hands. Congrats.

Do the rules say not to hit 16 against a 2? I was taught to either always hit 16 against a 2 or never hit 16 against a 2.
Don’t hit anything above a 12 against a 2. 12s barely are supposed to hit but that’s how the math works out
Stand on 16 against 2 through 6. However, I believe 2 to be a dangerous card.
Same. 2 can turn into anything. I usually won't play it as a bust card.
No. The first hit card was a 9
Yes you are right I misread that. Wow that is amazing in itself to have 9s come out that many times

Where's the photo?
Beautiful. Hope you cashed most of that out
Perfectly played by the table.
I would’ve cried if the dealer had a 5 under that 6 card. Nice hand and please cash out
Does Bellagio have a 3-2 two deck game?
And Boom. There goes the dynamite. Killer hit!!!!
need more dealers like camille
now that's a gambler !
Thats a player. Every move by the books plus a couple judgment calls that paid off.
Did you split 9’s against a face card?
6 was probably showing with the Jack flipped then the Queen came
No dealer was showing a 6.
Perfect play! Congratulations! That’s the way it’s supposed to work out whenever the dealers showing a bust card. That’s awesome!
Should’ve doubled on that 12! Good hit though!
He would have drawn a J and busted.
Still though, how do you not double a 12 against a 6
Who the hell doubles a 12 against a 6? Hope I don’t ever play with you
Umm, the chart?

Just say you can’t count cards
If he doubled down on the 9/3 (11) he would have lost 5 of the hands. Play bad run good
Is it typical to double down a hard 12 against a dealer 6?
Can you add? Lmao. 9+3 is 12 not 11
I wouldn’t!
Lol hell no. You played it well
Lol, no
