Casino Blackjack Strategies
Playing cards, however was invented in China but
not until 900 AD. 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. This game has been played in the United States since
the 1800's. Gambling was legal out West from the 1850's to 1910, at which time
Nevada made it a felony to operate a gambling game. 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. Roughly 70 Native American
Indian reservations operate or are building casinos as well. 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. In
face down card games you can pick up the cards but you must not use more than
one hand to pick them up. Going over 21 is called "Busting." You
are playing only against the dealer. 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. 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.
