Hello,
In a heads up blackjack match, what are the odds the dealer will get a 19 with a total of 7 cards?
This is based on an 8 deck game.
I recently had a dealer get the following:
1) 3 of Diamonds
2) 3 of Diamonds
3) 2 of Hearts
4) 3 of Hearts
5) 2 of Clubs
6) 3 of Hearts
7) 3 of Hearts
I had a jack and nine of Hearts.
Im just curious if anyone is brave enough to try and tell me the odds of this occuring.

One questions is do you care about the suits? Probably not. In that case I think the question is, what is the probability that the dealer gets this sequence 3,3,2,3,2,3,3 Also, can we assume that you don't see any other cards besides yours and the dealers?06/13/22
