Play Blackjack Game
Chinese people began to shuffle paper money into various
combinations and in China today the term for playing cards means paper tickets.
The 52 card deck as we know it was originally called the French Pack. The origin
of Blackjack is somewhat unclear. 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. As some of you may recall, 1978 was the year casino
gambling was legalized in Atlantic City, New Jersey. 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. Each card
in Blackjack has a certain value. Once all players have decided to "Stand," the
dealer reveals the face down card known as the "Hole" card. If
your first two cards total 21, you have Blackjack and win 3:2 odds on your bet
automatically unless the dealer draws Blackjack as well causing a tie or a
"Push." In the case of a tie, no money is won or lost. If the dealer "Busts" or
has a hand that exceeds 21 and your hand is less than 21, you win! The
10, Jack, Queen, and King are all valued at 10. 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.
