Blackjack is one of the most frequently-played casino banking games in the world, which gained paramount popularity in the sixties and since then has become the target of many players, looking to win big. It’s a game of probability that also requires lots of skill, concentration and discipline.
Also known as twenty-one, blackjack is a game between players and the dealer which basically means they do not play against each other but compete against the dealer. The player’s objective is to collect a hand which is as close in number to 21 as possible but not exceeding it, hence the name twenty-one. The aim is to collect a higher total point than the dealer but it should not go over 21. In case, the player collects a point which exceeds that number, they’re “busted” or in other words – lose. The players and the dealer take turns until all cards have been dealt.
The game can include several players, each competing against the dealer. Usually two to eight standard decks, containing 52 cards are used. Once the player has been dealt a two-card hand, he is faced with the option of getting a “hit” again and can request an additional card. If his hand is equal or less than 21, and the dealer “gets busted”, the result is a win for the player. Cards are dealt until 17 or more points are reached. If the dealer and the player both have an equal score, the latter neither loses, nor wins.
