Blackjack - A card game where players try to beat the dealer by getting closest to 21 without going over.
Blackjack / 21 / Twenty-One.
HIT or STAND Hit means to draw another card (which the player signifies by scraping the table with his cards or a similar hand motion). Stand means no more cards (which the player signals by placing his cards under his wager or moving his hand in a horizontal direction. If the player hits and busts (goes over 21), he immediately turns his cards over and his wager is lost.
DOUBLE DOWN The player is allowed to double the bet on his first two cards and draw one additional card only to improve his hand.
SPLITTING PAIRS If the first two cards a player is dealt are a pair, he may split them into two separate hands, bet the same amount on each and then play them separately. Aces receive only one additional card. After splitting, A-10 counts as 21 and not as blackjack.
INSURANCE If the dealer's up card is an ace, the player may take insurance, a bet not exceeding one-half his original bet. If the dealer's down card is a 10 or any face card, the player wins 2 to 1. Any other card means a win for the dealer.
SURENDER Where permitted, a player may give up his first two cards and lose only one-half his original bet.
The dealer must draw on 16 and stand on 17. In some casinos, the dealer is required to draw on soft 17.Try our free blackjack demo now.
