Beating the dealer is the aim of the game. You win if the total of your cards without going over 21 is greater than the dealer's cards. You "bust" if either the dealer's hand or yours exceeds 21. You automatically lose if you bust. You will win if the dealer busts and you don't. First action must be taken by the player. Regardless of whether the dealer busts or not, the player loses if they bust.

A GUIDE TO ONLINE BLACKJACK

In the game, the suits of the cards have no significance. The values for cards 2 through 9 are as stated. The value of every face card is ten. Aces have two possible counts: one and eleven.

There are no options available to the dealer when it comes to how he must play his hand. The dealer is required to keep drawing cards until his total is at least 17. If the dealer can count an ace without going over 21, then it is always counted as 11.

The options available to the player are:

- Hit: Make another card request.
- Stand: Stop drawing cards now.
- Double: Get one additional card in exchange for doubling the wager.
- Divide: Divide the hand into two distinct parts. A single new card is added to each ace when you split aces, and your turn is over.

The dealer is forced to play his hand in this manner; he has no choice. The dealer must continue drawing cards until he has at least 17 in total. An ace is always counted as eleven if the dealer can count it without going over 21.

The player has the following options:

- Hit: Request a different card.
- Stand: Now stop making cards.
- Double: If you double the bet, you'll receive one extra card.
- Partition: Separate the hand into two separate sections. When you split aces, you receive one extra card for each ace, and your turn ends.As needed, press the "hit," "stand," "double," and "split" buttons.
- Note that "insurance," "double," and "split" call for extra wagers. The buttons will become inoperative if there isn't enough money in your balance to pay for these charges.
- Blackjack pays 3 to 2, and the winning hand pays 1 to 1.
- Press "new game" to start a new round of play. Next, make a wager as per the above instructions and press the "deal" or "re-bet" buttons to make the same wager as in the previous round.
