Introduction

Blackjack is one of the most popular card games in the world, both in physical casinos and online. Known for its blend of skill, strategy, and luck, it’s a game where players compete against the dealer rather than each other. The objective is simple: get a hand value as close to 21 as possible without going over, while beating the dealer’s hand.

How to play

Understand the basics

  • Card values:
    • Number cards (2-10): Worth their face value.
    • Face cards (Jack, Queen, King): Worth 10 points each.
    • Ace: Worth 1 or 11 points, depending on what benefits your hand most.
  • Goal: Achieve a hand value closer to 21 than the dealer’s, without exceeding 21 (busting).

The Deal

  • You’re dealt two cards face-up.
  • The dealer gets two cards: one face-up (the “upcard”) and one face-down (the “hole card”).
  • Check your hand’s total value.

Your Turn – Player Options

  • Based on your cards and the dealer’s upcard, you can choose from these actions:
    • Hit: Take another card to increase your hand’s value.
    • Stand: Keep your current hand and end your turn.
    • Double: Double your bet, take one more card, and then stand (usually allowed on your first two cards).

Dealer’s Turn

  • After you stand or finish your actions, the dealer reveals their hole card.
  • The dealer must follow strict rules: typically, they hit on 16 or less and stand on 17 or higher.

Determine the outcome

  • Win: Your hand is closer to 21 than the dealer’s, or the dealer busts (goes over 21).
  • Lose: Your hand exceeds 21 (bust), or the dealer’s hand is closer to 21.
  • Push: You and the dealer have the same total (a tie), and your bet is returned.
  • Blackjack: If your first two cards are an Ace and a 10-value card (e.g., Ace + King), you get a “natural blackjack.” This usually pays 3:2, unless the dealer also has blackjack (resulting in a push).
