Play To Win Blackjack

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. This game has been played in the United States since the 1800's. In 1931, Nevada re-legalized casino gambling where BlackJack became one of the primary games of chance offered to gamblers. 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. Card between 2 and 10 simply have their face value regardless of suit. Blackjack can be won in a few different ways. 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. An Ace can count as either 1 or 11. The cards from 2 through 9 are valued as indicated. 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.
