How to Play Blackjack?
Casino Blackjack is played with eight fifty-two card decks. After each
game has been played, the used cards are shuffled back into the deck. All
face cards are valued at ten and the cards from 2-10 are valued as indicated.
Aces can be valued at either one or eleven; if counting the Ace as eleven
would put the hand over twenty-one, the Ace is automatically counted as one
instead. Ace always assumed to have the value that makes the best hand. The
value of a hand is the sum of the values of the individual cards.
Before receiving any cards players must place a wager. Then the players
are dealt two cards face up. The dealer gets one face up, one face down. Each
player in turn either stays or takes more cards to try and get closer to 21
without busting. Players who do not bust wait for the dealer's turn. When
all the players are done, the dealer turns up the down card. By rule, on counts
of 17 or higher the dealer must stay; on counts of 16 or lower the dealer
must draw.
If you make a total of 21 with the first two cards (a 10 or a face and an
Ace), you win automatically. This is called 'Blackjack'. If you have Blackjack,
you will win one and one-half times your bet unless the dealer also has Blackjack,
in which case it is a Push or a Tie (or a Stand-off) and you get your bet
back.
The remaining players with a higher count than the dealer win an amount
equal to their bet. Players with a lower count than the dealer lose their
bet. If the dealer busts, all the remaining players win. There are other betting
options namely Insurance, Surrender, Double Down, Even Money and Split.
