A complete guide on how to play blackjack
This game allows players to draw cards with a total of 21 or less than the dealer. The face value of all cards is equal, with the exception of Jack, Queen, King and Jack, which count as 10. An Ace is worth 11 unless it gives a dealer or player more than 21. In which case, it will be worth 1.
The Dealer begins the game. Each player gets two cards face up.
The Dealer is given two cards. However, one card is facing up and one faces down--the Hole Cards. The Dealer only exposes the Hole Card after all the players have played their hands and plays the Dealer's hand. All cards are dealt using a shoe.
Once you have two cards in your hand, you have the option to either stand or draw one more card until you reach 21. You will lose if your hand goes over 21. A winning hand is worth even money.
Now, the Dealer flips over the Hole Card. He or she will act according to the rules. The Dealer must draw 16 and then stand when the dealer reaches 17. If your count is greater than the Dealer's, the game ends with a Stand-Off. If the Dealer's or player's counts are equal, but not exceeding 21, the dealer wins.
*NOTE - Some Blackjack tables will reach soft 17. All tables will clearly indicate the soft 17 rule.
What if Blackjack were available immediately?
The Dealer will call your hand Blackjack if your first two cards consist of an Ace and any ten value card. Unless the Dealer has an Ace and a ten-value face up card, you will not receive payment. In such cases, the Dealer's Hole Card will be checked to determine if you are eligible for payment. If the Dealer's hand includes Blackjack, the stake is a stand-off and the player does not win or lose. At odds 3 to 2, a Blackjack player wins is paid. If the player wins Blackjack and the Dealer draws 21 with more cards than 2, the Blackjack hand is the winning one. You will receive a payout of 3 to 2. The Dealer's Blackjack wins if the player draws 21 cards with more than two.
*NOTE - Some Blackjack tables will pay Blackjack odds between 6 and 5. All tables will clearly indicate the Blackjack odds payoff.
You can even make money:
Blackjack players can choose to get paid even money for their Blackjack Wagers instead of placing an Insurance Wager. This option can be used simultaneously with the dealer offering insurance to the players (before he/she checks to see whether he/she is Blackjack). If the player decides
Instead of getting insurance, players can choose to opt for the even money option. Players will receive 1-1 payments immediately. This player has been dealt the final word.
*NOTE - If there are 6 to 5 Blackjack payoff options, money is not an option.
