Had a new casino dealer at a $5 blackjack table tonight. She kept on questioning me or pushed me to rethink what I wanted to do. Got to a point where she started pissing me off. It's called gambling and my money.

#1: With a $25 bet, I had a 13 against the dealer's 5 up card. I waved off the dealer saying I want to stay with my 13. She questions it. I affirm it. She flips her other card so now she has 15 then pulls a 9 and she busts.

#2: Now, with a $15 bet, I got two 6s and she got a 7 up card. Before she gets to me (I'm 5th in line), I put out another $15 to split them. She questions me and puts on her worried face trying to get me to change my mind. I say, "Yes. Split." On my first 6, I get an 8 and suddenly feel like a dumbass. While I think about what to do, two spots to my right, a guy who already has his turn, tries to wave me off. Same with the dealer and the person on my left. I take a hit and get a 7. Totaling 21.

With my other 6, I get a 5 and put down another $15 to double down. Face down. The dealer busts. Turned out I got 21 on that hand, too, but it didn't matter.

maybe switch to video blackjack? because, idk, those sound like plays that most dealers would ask about before proceeding.

granted, I haven't played myself, so I don't know. but I'd be surprised if she's the only one

nah, sticking the 13 is optimal. Splitting the 6's isn't (though it might depend on what the count was), but it's certainly not "are you SURE you want to do that?" worthy. It's not like he asked to hit a 20.

Maybe she was just concerned you'd lose your money.

I would've changed tables if I didn't like my dealer haha
