Before starting to play Blackjack, each player should know the blackjack playing card’s value- from 2 to 10, worth as many points as showing the number of each card. Royal cards (Jack, Queen and King) are worth 10 points each. Following the rules of blackjack, Aces count as 11 points when aren’t threatening to exceed 21 points. Otherwise, the Ace is worth just one point. A hand with an ace of 11 points is called “soft” (“soft hand”) because the hand can draw cards without exceeding the limit score.
After been placing bets on blackjack, the dealer deals the cards in the stack that must contain at least 4 whole packs of cards. Each player and the dealer receive 2 cards. A book dealer is turned up so as to be seen by all players while the other card remains face down - so-called whole book (“hole card”). Two cards that add up to 21 points (plus a ten or an ace royal card) will be called “blackjack” and will automatically win - as long as the dealer does not have blackjack.
Generally, for winning at blackjack in a casino, a player has an odd of 3: 2. This odd is quite high, which makes blackjack it is a game that deserves to be learned. In some studies, it is estimated for gaining at Blackjack, a player have an odd of 1.5. Other theories consider that the dealer or “house” has an advantage of 8% compared to players just because decisions and act after seeing existing hands at the table.
The goal of each player blackjack is to beat the dealer (croupier), without exceeding the value of 21. The player himself has over 21 points, loses even if the dealer's hand exceeds also 21 points. If the Dealer and a blackjack player have the same score is called a “push”. None of them will win in this case. Each player plays against the dealer by himself. The dealer can lose to a player, but at the same time can win the rest of the players.
If the exposed card is an ace, the dealer will look at the entire card after a possible blackjack. If the dealer has blackjack, then all players lose the first stake, except those that also have a blackjack. The dealer blackjack strategy, says you should not longer draw cards if you reached 17.
