Play Blackjack Free Gaming

Blackjack is probably the most popular of all casino and online casino games primarily due to the fact that, when played correctly, the odds of winning are about even with the house. Playing cards, however was invented in China but not until 900 AD. Some people believe that Blackjack originated in French casinos in the early 1700s where it was known as "vingt-et-un" ("20 and 1") This game has been played in the United States since the 1800's. As of 1989, only two states had legalized casino gambling. 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. Going over 21 is called "Busting." You are playing only against the dealer. If your hand beats the dealer's hand, you win. If the dealer "Busts" or has a hand that exceeds 21 and your hand is less than 21, you win! 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. Double - if you think you will win without getting more than one card you double. You have to add an amount equal to your original wager and receive only one card. 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.
