Soft 13 (A-2) vs Dealer 6: Double

You hold Ace-2 — a soft 13, meaning the ace still counts as 11. Dealer shows 6. The correct basic-strategy play:

DOUBLE
Basic strategy · multi-deck · dealer stands on soft 17 · double after split allowed

Against a weak dealer 6 (42% bust chance), soft 13 (Ace-2) is a doubling machine: you can't bust the draw, and every extra chip is placed while the dealer is in trouble. Double — if the table does not allow it, just hit.

Soft hands are where most casual players leak the most: they play them like hard totals and miss every profitable double. Learning the six soft-total rows of the chart is the fastest win-rate upgrade there is.
