Why double down?

Whether or not to double down in blackjack is generally simple: do it!
After all, you know the dealer’s up-card. Second, the casino is allowing you to bet more money with that
information. Finally, your chances of winning the hand - when you should be doubling - are better than the dealer’s.
You always want to bet more when the casino is at a distinct disadvantage so as to increase your potential
return. Your edge comes from the new bet’s paying even money on hands you are favored to win.
