  1. Not in this case.

    Whether or not you would take a conservative decision that gives up expected value to reduce risk depends on both the size of the bet and your situation in life – your personal wealth.

    There is no world in which someone should be betting $10 and sweating whether or not they get $15 or push so badly that they take $10. However, someone who is on a sick heater, ran $500 up to $10,000, put $5,000 on a hand, and got dealt a blackjack with a dealer Ace up might NEED that $5k so much so that it becomes the proper play per the Kelly Criterion to take insurance and give up $2,500 in possible value to avoid not winning the other $5,000. Even independent of card counting and knowing about how many tens are left in the deck, there are some situations where it's worth taking insurance. This ain't it.

  2. Yes you pay for insurance when you have blackjack. Itā€™s the only time youā€™re supposed to. The math is there

  3. The casino will never offer a bet they donā€™t have an advantage on. Never buy insurance

  4. What is the point of taking insurance because if yā€™all both got bj itā€™s a push, why you need insurance foršŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚
