About Black Jack

Black Jack was originated in France and is one of the most popular casino games in the world. The goal in Black Jack is that the total of your cards should be higher than the dealer's without going over 21. This is done by adding up the value of the cards in your hand. Black Jack is played with one to six decks of standard playing cards, shuffled, placed in and dealt from a "shoe".

Before receiving any cards the player must place a wager or "ante". Once the wager is made the player is dealt 2 cards face up. The dealer is also dealt two cards, one face up and the other face down. The dealer's "hole" card remains face down until the players have completed their hands. At this point the dealer turns over his hole card. If his hand totals a hard 17 through 21 he must stand. If his hand is 16 or under, the dealer must continue to take cards until either his hand is over 16 or "bust" (which means over 21). The dealer must hit on 16.
