Blackjack is a fast-paced, strategic card game where your goal is to beat the dealer by getting as close to 21 as possible—without going over. Here's everything you need to know to play confidently.
🎯 Objective
Your goal is to build a hand that totals closer to 21 points than the dealer’s hand, without going over (busting).
🃎 Card Values
Aces = 1 or 11 (whichever benefits your hand)
Kings, Queens, Jacks = 10
2–10 = Face value
🔄 Game Flow
You and the dealer are each dealt two cards.
One of the dealer’s cards is face up.
On your turn, you can:
Hit – Take another card.
Stand – End your turn and keep your hand.
Double – Double your wager, receive one more card, and end your turn.
Split – If dealt a pair, split them into two hands (see below).
The dealer reveals their second card and:
Must hit until reaching 17 or more.
Will stand on a soft 17 (a 17 that includes an Ace valued as 11).
🃏 Special Hands & Rules
🖤 Natural 21 (Blackjack)
A Natural 21 is an Ace + 10-point card on your first two cards.
Payout: 3:2
If both you and the dealer have Blackjack, the result is a push (tie).
If the dealer has Blackjack, the game ends immediately.
Note: If you have Blackjack and the dealer shows an Ace, Even Money and Insurance are not offered.
🛡️ Insurance
If the dealer's up-card is an Ace, you can take insurance—a side bet worth half your original wager.
If the dealer has Blackjack:
Insurance pays 2:1
If not:
You lose your insurance bet, and the game continues.
✂️ Splitting
If you’re dealt a pair (same number or face card), you can split into two hands.
A new wager equal to your original bet is placed on the second hand.
You may only split once.
Split Aces receive only one card per hand and cannot be hit.
Blackjack is not possible on a split hand.
💰 Doubling
You can double down on any two initial cards.
You will receive one card only, and your turn ends.
Doubling is allowed after a split.
🔁 Infinite Decks
This game uses infinite decks (cards are reshuffled automatically after each round.)
