Casino Gambling Blackjack Winning
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. As some of you may recall, 1978 was the year casino
gambling was legalized in Atlantic City, New Jersey. 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. 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. Each card
in Blackjack has a certain value. You win if your
hand is closer to 21 than the dealer's hand. The cards from 2 through 9 are valued as indicated. The
10, Jack, Queen, and King are all valued at 10. Insurance - is offered to the players if the dealer's up card is an Ace, to protect against a dealers Black
Jack.
