Once all players have decided to "Stand," the dealer reveals the face down card known as the "Hole" card. Blackjack can be won in a few different ways. 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."
