  1. Well, since the house advantage is about 51%, anything better than 49% would be good.


  2. I average about 60% but I don't consider myself a professional. People who can count card (which isn't necisarilly cheating) could get around 80% if they're smart (losing some hands so as not to make it obvious.)

  3. The win rate per playing session can approach and is usually quite near 60% for a very proficient player.

    The win rate in terms of hands won is 44% for the most professional of players.

    Its interesting to note that even an advnatage blackjack player never wins more hands than he loses, the edge comes from getting payed 3:2, and being able to split and double down at very oportune moments.

    My actual real world session win rate for this year is  56.9%  which is slightly under par, but variance is somethign you have to deal with.

    You need a very large sample of rounds played for your number to be anywhere near where it should, iv played evenings where i figured i won or lost as many as 70% of all the hands i played.
