Doubling down can be a real winner for players at blackjack.

When you have a two-card 11, double on all dealer upcards except an ace in multiple-deck games, and double against the ace as well in single-deck games. When you have a 10, double against a dealer's 2 through 9. When you have a 9, double against a 3 through 6 in multiple-deck games and 2-6 in single-deck games.
