The Ward Hints
Can you provide any particular strategy?
1 of 5: Gambling games as a whole are games of chance. Your chance of winning is as good as his. As is your chance to lose.
2 of 5: Hitting a hand already containing 15 is risky but does work sometimes. Since the next card is unknown, there is always a risk that it will push you over 21. Most seasoned players will agree that you should Pass (or Hold) on a hand that already totals 17 or more.
3 of 5: When he wins, study his final hand. See if you can tell when he may be more likely to pass or get more cards. This might give you incite while playing future hands.
4 of 5: He really seems to like the C.S.M. model and I was luckier when I put it on the table.
5 of 5: You may need to bet his silver dollar and gold ring at least once.
