Blackjack

About

Blackjack is one of the most popular casino card games in the world.
It's absorbing, challenging, exciting and easy to play.

Aim of the Game

In Blackjack you play against the Dealer.
To win your total must be greater than the Dealer's total, but not exceed 21.
Your hand will lose if your card total is less than that of the Dealer's or greater than 21.
If your total is the same as the Dealer's then the result is a tie, or 'stand off'.

Card Values

Cards from 2 to 10 have their face value.
Jacks, Queens and Kings have a value of ten.
Aces count as one or eleven.

Blackjack

A Blackjack is when the first two cards dealt to you are an Ace and a card with the value of ten.
A Blackjack is paid at odds of 3-2.

How to Play

Each player places a bet in the betting areas marked on the layout.
All Players receives two cards and the Dealer one.
The Players are asked in turn whether they wish to 'draw' another card or 'stay' with the total they have.

Once all Players have made their decisions the Dealer draws cards to his/her hand.
The Dealer must draw a card to his/her hand if he/she has 16 or less.
When the Dealer's hand reaches a total of 17 or more he/she must not draw another card.

All winning bets are paid even money with the exception of any Blackjacks.

Splitting

When the first two cards dealt to your hand are a pair of the same value you may split them to create two separate hands, by placing an additional stake equal to the original bet.
Split Aces will only receive one additional card.

If the subsequent card dealt has a value of ten this will only count as 21 and not a Blackjack.

Doubling

A Player may double any two card total by placing an additional stake equal to the original bet.
The Player will only receive one additional card to this hand.

In the standard Blackjack game the edge can vary (for and against the house) according to player style.
