Blackjack Gambling Casino Gambling
This game has been played in the United States since
the 1800's. As some of you may recall, 1978 was the year casino
gambling was legalized in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Since then, about 20 states have had a number of
small time casinos sprout up in places such as Black Hawk and Cripple Creek,
Colorado and in river boats on the Mississippi. Once all bets are down the dealer will deal two cards, one
at a time, from left to right until both the players and dealer has two cards.
In a shoe game the cards are dealt face up and you shouldn't touch the cards. If your hand beats the dealer's hand, you
win. Jacks, Queens and Kings always have a value of 10. The
10, Jack, Queen, and King are all valued at 10. Stand
- you stand if you don't want any more cards. 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. Split - if your starting hand contains two cards of the same type (i.e. two 9's) you can split them up into two new
hands. Insurance - is offered to the players if the dealer's up card is an Ace, to protect against a dealers Black
Jack. Surrender - this decision is quite rare and not offered is most casinos. After you see your starting hand and the dealers up card and you don't think you can win, you have to give your cards back to the dealer
immediately. If you surrender you will only lose half of your original bet.
