Blackjack Strategy Web

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. With a Jack being a vital card and Spades being black, the game was called Blackjack. In 1931, Nevada re-legalized casino gambling where BlackJack became one of the primary games of chance offered to gamblers. 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. If your hand beats the dealer's hand, you win. 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. Depending on the game, the player's are either dealt their cards face up or face down. Card between 2 and 10 simply have their face value regardless of suit. Once all players have decided to "Stand," the dealer reveals the face down card known as the "Hole" card. You win if your hand is closer to 21 than the dealer's hand. An Ace can count as either 1 or 11.
