What is the newest and easiest system to use at playing casino blackjack for a single player?

Well you cant count cards unless you have a lot of people playing with you. What i would use is basic strategy. If you have two 8s then split them always. really anything 8 and higher split. If you hit 17 and higher never hit its suicide. 15 is the unlucky number though you have to hit on that even if the cards turn out bad.
