It's Not the Third Base's Fault

All casino players should know that the casino has the advantage on almost all of the games; this is another way of putting to words that players in the casino will lose in the long run. But this is not the case in a short run, where sometimes players do win.

If players never won at anything then nobody would go to casinos anymore. Most of the players are studying the games and their strategy to have a higher chance of winning and reducing the casino advantage. Players often take the time to learn strategy and skills especially in blackjack and poker.

No player can embrace losing all the time. It may either be due to competitive spirit or a simple quest for excellence, almost every player has the desire to win. Once a player loses it makes them feel like blaming it on something to ease their frustration, but not on the mathematical aspect of the game.

Some players will blame bad luck if they lose or on a rotten card, or the dealer or sometimes even their opponents. This often happens at a blackjack table.

From a blackjack table, the person seated closest to the dealer that is dealt first is known as first base. And the last person to be dealt by the dealer is called third base. The third base position is where the most delicate seat on the blackjack table is located. Thi si because the player on the third base is the last to move before the dealer can act and the decision that the third base player makes always gets inspected.

Most blackjack players who take the time to learn basic strategy for blackjack always want their opponents to know the game of blackjack according to their learning. Usually the person on third base who makes the decision last often times oppose the basic strategy of the game and this make the other players upset. And once the other players not seated on the third base lose they blame it on the third base player.

When this blaming happens at a blackjack table, an argument can occur. The truth of the matter is that no one can be blamed for your loss except yourself. The players who have lost remember how the third base player acted but tend to forget how they actually made the mistake that resulted them in losing.

To conclude, don't blame other players for your loss. Take note that the other player is playing for his money and not with yours so mind your own mistakes and your own loses. You and the third base person have the right to play how you want want to play. A game of blackjack should be fun and thrilling, don't take the game too seriously.
