Online casino have hit the internet by storm. Games the used to be inside the casino are now available for everyone of legal age without even going to the bar. Blackjack is a popular casino game that is taking online casinos by storm.
Its simple to win in blackjack, get as much points to 21. Cards follow their value except for face cards and aces. Aces can take the value of 1 to 11 while face cards all take the value of 10.
In order to win at blackjack, your points should come as close to 21 as possible without busting. Busting means going over 21 after a third card is added to your hand. The winner is whoever gets closest to 21 and gets double of what he originally bet. If the player or dealer gets an ACE and a face card, they automatically win. Getting a blackjack earns you 1.5 worth of winnings. If both the player and dealer get to 21 with the first 2 cards, we call it a push, and the player gets his bet back.
Every player gets 2 cards face up. The dealer gets 1 facing up and another facing down. Everyone gets a chance to hit another card in order to get a score closer to 21.
The turn on who gets the first card is the person sitting at directly at the left of the dealer. Everyone scoring higher than the dealer wins as much as their original bet. If a dealer busts, all players who still have a turn wins.
