In face down card games you can pick up the cards but you must not use more than one hand to pick them up. 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. 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. An Ace can count as 1 or 11 depending on what is most beneficial to your hand. Player's add the value of their cards and either decide to "Stick" or "Stand" with their current cards or receive another card, called a "Hit" or "Draw," hopefully raising their total closer to 21 without going over. The cards from 2 through 9 are valued as indicated. Hit - if you are not satisfied with your current total you can ask the dealer to hit you which means he deals you another card in addition to your two. You are hit until you are satisfied with your total, or until you bust. 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.
