Blackjack Strategies Top

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. The origin of Blackjack is somewhat unclear. 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. In 1931, Nevada re-legalized casino gambling where BlackJack became one of the primary games of chance offered to gamblers. 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. Depending on the game, the player's are either dealt their cards face up or face down. Each card in Blackjack has a certain value. Card between 2 and 10 simply have their face value regardless of suit. If your first two cards total 21, you have Blackjack and win 3:2 odds on your bet automatically unless the dealer draws Blackjack as well causing a tie or a "Push." In the case of a tie, no money is won or lost. 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.
