BlackJack

How To Play: 

Players receive both cards face up. The dealer receives his/her first card face up and the second card face down. The object of the game is to get as close as possible to 21 without going over 21. If a hand goes over 21, it is called a "bust" and the wager is lost.  Jacks, queens, kings and tens count as 10. An ace may be played as a one or an eleven. All other cards are played at face value.


When you receive your first two cards, you may either "stand" or "hit". When you "stand" it means you feel you are close enough to 21. If you wish to receive another card or "hit", scratch the surface of the table.

If you are nearer to 21 than the dealer, you win and are paid an amount equal to your original wager.

If your hand is less than the dealer's you lose. Ties are a standoff or "push" and your bet remains on the table.

Should your count total 21 on your first two cards, you have a blackjack and the dealer will pay you one and a half times your wager. If the dealer also has a blackjack, it's a push.

Any two alike cards may be split up to four times.

Aces may only be split once and receive only one card.

You may also double down on any first two cards.

Players all always welcome to play a second bet for the dealer.
