The origin of Blackjack is somewhat unclear. Some people believe that Blackjack originated in French casinos in the early 1700s where it was known as "vingt-et-un" ("20 and 1") The game became known as Blackjack because if a player held a Jack of Spades and an Ace of Spades as the 1st two cards, the player was paid out extra. Gambling was legal out West from the 1850's to 1910, at which time Nevada made it a felony to operate a gambling game. You must keep your hand over the table at all times and if you are dealt any more cards to leave them on the table. The object of the game is to obtain a hand of cards totaling up to 21 or as close to 21 as possible without going over. Starting to the dealer's left side, the cards are dealt in a round one at a time to each player ending with the dealer receiving his second card face down. Once all players have decided to "Stand," the dealer reveals the face down card known as the "Hole" card. Blackjack can be won in a few different ways. You win if your hand is closer to 21 than the dealer's hand. The cards from 2 through 9 are valued as indicated. Double - if you think you will win without getting more than one card you double. You have to add an amount equal to your original wager and receive only one card.
