Game Play Blackjack Online

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. Tables and online casinos will have a minimum bet required to play the game. Depending on the game, the player's are either dealt their cards face up or face down. Jacks, Queens and Kings always have a value of 10. 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. 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. Stand - you stand if you don't want any more cards. 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. Surrender - this decision is quite rare and not offered is most casinos. After you see your starting hand and the dealers up card and you don't think you can win, you have to give your cards back to the dealer immediately. If you surrender you will only lose half of your original bet.
