The player's options for playing his or her hand are: Every normal win gives you 1 times the bet. In European blackjack (like in this game), the hole card is not actually dealt until the players all play their hands.) The cards are dealt face up from a shoe, or face down if it is a pitch game.Ī two-card hand of 21 (an ace plus a ten-value card) is called a 'blackjack' or a 'natural', and is an automatic winner and gets 1, 5 times the bet. (The face-down card is known as the 'hole card'. One of the dealer's two cards is face-up so all the players can see it, and the other is face down. The dealer gives two cards to you and two to himself. The dealer deals the cards, either from one or two hand-held decks of cards, known as a 'pitch' game, or more commonly from a shoe containing four or more decks. You will play with the last bet, unless you explicitly change it again. Please be aware that your bet will not be reset to 10ct in the next round. After initial bets are placed (use the + and - buttons to in- or decrease your bet with 10ct each) hit the DEAL button.
If both the player and the dealer have the same point value, it is called a 'push', and neither player nor dealer wins the hand. Note that if you bust you lose, even if the dealer also busts (therefore Blackjack favors the dealer).
The goal is to beat the dealer by having the higher, unbusted hand.
