Blackjack Table Gambling Online

Blackjack is probably the most popular of all casino and online casino games primarily due to the fact that, when played correctly, the odds of winning are about even with the house. 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. Roughly 70 Native American Indian reservations operate or are building casinos as well. 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. If your hand beats the dealer's hand, you win. Players place their bets prior to the cards being dealt. Once all bets are placed, each player and the dealer will receive two cards. Jacks, Queens and Kings always have a value of 10. 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.
