Blackjack Dealer Stats
The frequency in which the dealer busts definitely makes the difference when it comes to the ecstasy of the game. What can you expect at the table when the dealer is dealing the cards from a multi deck and must stand on any 17 or above is that they should break right around 28.2 percent of the time. The likelihood will vary, depending on the upcard. Obviously, with an Ace up, the dealer is less likely to blow.
Probability that the Dealer will Bust in a Multi Deck Game, Standing with Hands of 17 or over:
Upcard Probability of Busting
Ace 11.5%
10 21.2%
9 22.8%
7 24.5%
6 42.5%
5 41.6%
4 39.4%
3 37.4%
2 35.4%
There are the dealers that never seem to break, even with the low cards, and every hand feels like a disaster. When you find that you are at a table in which the dealer seldom breaks, it might just be a good idea to head towards another table and increase your odds, where the cards are not quite so favorable to the dealer.
Remember to count the cards as well, as the unavailability of cards definitely means that the dealer will bust more often.
