Blackjack Tutorial
One of the most popular online casino games is blackjack. Nearly everyone
knows how to play the game and for the most part it is easy
to understand. Let’s review the basics.
The online blackjack player wins when the total value of cards
in his hand is closer to 21 than those held by the dealer, without
going over 21. A hand that goes over 21 is a loser. If you and
the dealer have the same card total it is called a push or a
tie and all money is refunded. If you happen to hit a blackjack
on your first two cards you get paid 3-2.
As you are playing online blackjack you add up your cards total
value and decide whether you need to take another card to increase
your total or keep the cards you already have and hope the dealer
will either bust or have a total lower than you. When you draw
an ace, you can use it as a 1 or an 11.
The dealer must hit until his total is 17 or above. When his
hand is between 17 and 21, he must stand. If the dealer goes
over 21 he automatically loses. If the dealer busts, then any
player with a hand that did not bust is a winner.
Most online casinos will also allow you to split, double down
or buy insurance so you want to check the rules for these options
as you play online blackjack.
