Chinese people began to shuffle paper money into various
combinations and in China today the term for playing cards means paper tickets.
The 52 card deck as we know it was originally called the French Pack. 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 blackjack table
seats 1 to 7 players and each player has a betting square printed in front of
them on the felt and each table will have a minimum bet which you should check
before sitting down. 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. Going over 21 is called "Busting." You
are playing only against the dealer. Players place their bets prior to the cards being dealt. Once all players have decided to "Stand," the
dealer reveals the face down card known as the "Hole" card. If the
dealer's hand is between 17 and 21, he or she may not draw any additional card.
If the dealer's hand is 16 or below, cards must be drawn until the dealer's hand
has a value of 17 or higher. 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.
