-
The value of cards - Ace is 1 or 11 whichever suits
your hand the best. Cards 2- 9 bear the face value of the cards
they represent. 10, Jack, Queen and King are all valued at 10.
-
When your first two cards score 21, which is with an Ace and
a card valued at 10, it is Blackjack.
-
Blackjack beats 21. Blackjack against Blackjack is a tie.
-
Surrender - This is played before any other choices
and it means withdrawing from the game for the cost of half
of your bet.
-
Hit is when the player requests a dealer to serve him an additional
card.
-
Stand is when a player decides not to draw a card.
-
Double Down is when a player has two hands he can use that
to double his bet. He requires only one single extra card. You
can place a bet amounting to the original.
-
Splitting pairs - In this if you are dealt two similar
score cards, you can split them and play both hands separately.
You must then place a bet on the newly split hand that amounts
to the original bet.
