 |  Online Blackjack
To win you need to beat the dealer without busting. You bust when your cards add up to more than 21 and you lose automatically. The winner is whoever has closest to a total of 21. You reach 21 by adding up the values of the cards.
Before receiving any cards players must place a wager. Then the players are dealt two cards face up. In standard blackjack the dealer gets one face up and one face down. Each player in turn either stays (sticks) or takes more cards to try and get closer to 21 without busting. Players who do not bust wait for the dealer's turn. When all the players are done, the dealer turns up (exposes) the down card. By rule in the standard version blackjack, on counts of 17 or higher the dealer must stay; on counts of 16 or lower the dealer must draw more cards.
The suits of the cards have no affect on the game. Cards 2 - 10 are counted at face value without regards to their suit. All face cards have a value of ten. An ace can count as either one or eleven. A queen and a five would equal 15. An ace and a five would total either 6 or 16. A hand that does not have an ace is referred to as a "Hard Hand" because it has only one value. A hand that contains an ace is referred to as a "Soft Hand" because the value can change. If you draw to a soft hand and the three cards total a number where counting an ace as eleven puts you over 21 then the hand becomes a hard hand. Example: You are dealt an ace and a three. You have 4 or 14. If you then draw a ten you now have a hard 14 because if you count the ace as 11 you would have 25, which would make you go bust.
If you make a total of 21 with the first two cards (a 10 or a face and an Ace), you win automatically. This is called 'Blackjack'.
