Answer 2

Insurance is one of the biggest sucker bets ever you should never take the insurance a lot of amateurs take that bair and insure their big bets but in reality unless you are counting cards and know there are only 10's and faces left then you should never take the insurance

Answer 3

In the casinos I visit, you do not insure blackjacks. If you receive a blackjack and the dealer has an ace showing, you are given the option of playing the blackjack and pressing your luck, or playing it safe and receiving an instant payout of 1:1. This is done before the house checks for blackjack.

If you choose to play it safe, you get $400 -- the $200 you bet plus $200 in winnings. If you choose to press your luck, the house then checks for a blackjack. If the house has a blackjack, it is a push. You would get your $200 back, and go on to the next hand. If the house does not have a blackjack, you get the normal 3:2 payout, or $500 -- the $200 you bet plus $300 in winnings. - LJS
