Play Blackjack Free
The origin
of Blackjack is somewhat unclear. 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 of 1989, only two states
had legalized casino gambling. In
face down card games you can pick up the cards but you must not use more than
one hand to pick them up. Once all bets are
placed, each player and the dealer will receive two cards. Depending on the
game, the player's are either dealt their cards face up or face down. Each card
in Blackjack has a certain value. 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. 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.
