¡á ¡á BLACKJACK
The main objective is to get as close to 21 without going over while still beating the dealer's hand. This is done by counting up the value of the cards in your hand. All cards numbered 2 through 10
are at face value. All face cards are valued at 10 while an ace is valued at either 1 or 11 at the player's discretion. As the game starts, the player dealt 2 cards face up. The dealer is also dealt
two cards, one face up and the other face down. The dealer's "hole" card remains face down until
the players have completed their hands. At this point the dealer turns over his hole card. If his hand totals a 17 through 21 he must stand. If his hand is 16 or under, the dealer must continue to take cards until either his hand is over 16 or "bust" (which means over 21). |

¢À BLACKJACK
When a player is dealt an ace and a 10-valued card (face card) as his first two cards,
it is called a "BlackJack" and generally is paid one and one-half times his original bet.
¢À SPLIT
If you are dealt two cards with identical value you can then split them. You would now be playing
2 separate hands, each starting with one of the two split cards. You will now be dealt a second card
to one of the hands. After this hand is played out, the second hand will be dealt a second card and continued until that hand is played out. If your card is an ace, you will only dealt once.
¢À DOUBLE DOWN
A player, after being deal his first two cards, is always given the option to double the initial wager. Once you chosen to do this, you will be dealt a third card and no more. Your hand will only consist
of 3 cards.
¢À SURRENDER
Player may give up or surrender after receiving first two cards but before dealer checks for an Ace
in the hole. If surrendered, only 50% of bet is lost, instead of entire sum.
¢À INSURANCE
If the dealer's first card is an Ace, there is a possibility that he may have a BlackJack.
The player can, if he believes the dealer's hidden card is a 10, insure himself against BlackJack.
If you choose to insure yourself you have to pay an amount of half of your stake. If the dealer
gets Black Jack, the insurance will pay corresponds to your original stake.
If you have insured yourself and the dealer does not get Black Jack then you lose your insurance.
Your originary stake is settled by whatever the dealer gets.
