If the dealer’s face up card is an Ace, you may elect to take insurance. With a double down, you will be dealt one additional card only. If the split pair is Aces, you are limited to a one-card draw on each hand.Īfter receiving your first two cards you may elect to wager an additional amount not to exceed the value of the original bet. The bet on the second hand must equal the original bet. If your first two cards have the same numerical value, you may split them into two hands. In 21, the player has many options to choose from: Blackjack is paid either 6 to 5 or 3 to 2 depending on the type of Blackjack you are playing. If your initial two cards total 21, any Ace with a 10, Jack, Queen, or King, you have a Blackjack. Ties are a standoff or “push” and your bet remains on the table.

If the dealer’s hand “busts” or “breaks,” you win as well. If your hand is less than the dealer’s, you lose. If you are closer to 21 than the dealer, you win and are paid an amount equal to your original wager. You may draw as many cards as you want until you are close to 21 or until you “bust.”

In either situation, you will never touch the cards, everything is communicated using hand signals. If you wish to receive another card or “hit,” tap or scratch the table behind your wager with your finger. When you receive your first two cards, you may either “stand” or “hit.” When you “stand” it means you feel you are close enough to 21 and no longer wish any additional cards and indicated by waving off with your hand. All other cards are played at face value. In 21, Jacks, Queens, Kings and 10s count as 10. If a hand goes over 21, it is called a “bust” or “break” and the wager is lost. The object of the game is to get closer to 21 than the dealer without going over 21. Players receive all cards face up and the dealer’s first card is face up and the second is face down. In Blackjack, everyone plays against the dealer.
