About Blackjack

Blackjack is played with six, standard 52-

card decks dealt from a “shoe” (a box

containing more than one deck). This

means that there are 24 cards of each

value in the shoe (24 aces, 24 kings,

etc.). This shoe is shuffled after 2/3 of

the cards have been dealt. The player

and dealer are dealt two cards each, one

of the dealer’s cards is dealt face down.

The number cards are equal to their face

value, the picture cards (king, queen,

and jack) count as 10, and the ace can

count as either 1 or 11, depending on

which brings the hand closer to 21. Note

that the four suits (hearts, diamonds,

clubs, and spades) have no effect on the

value of your hand.

The object of the game is simple: to have

a hand equal to “21” or closer to 21 than

the dealer's hand without going over 21.

A winning hand pays 1 to 1 to the play-

ers original bet, except blackjack (two

cards that together equal 21) which pays

3:2 (so a bet of $10 would win $15). If

the dealer and player stand on the same

value, then it is called a “push”, and no

one wins or loses the hand.

The dealer will continue to receive cards

until the hand equals or exceeds 17.
