Glossary

Blackjack `s objective is to
draw cards totaling closer to 21 than
the dealer draws
without going over 21. The cards are dealt clockwise.
Each
player is dealt two cards, face up; the dealer takes two
cards,
one face up and one face down. Cards 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,
7, 8, 9, 10 count at
face value. Picture cards (Jack,
Queen, King) count as ten. Aces count
as one or eleven,
whichever is to the Player's advantage, e.g.,
Ace + 8 = 9,
or Ace + 8 = 19.
If you
receive an Ace and a Ten value card as your first two cards,
you have Blackjack. The Dealer will announce Blackjack,
pay you
one and one-half times the bet, then remove those
cards before acting
on any other hands. However, if the
Dealers face up card is an
Ace or Ten value card, he will
act on all hands. If he has Blackjack,
the hand will be a
Push (Tie). You neither win nor lose. If the Dealer
makes
21 with 3 or more cards, the Players Blackjack
wins.
If you do not have
Blackjack on your first two cards, you may decide
to stand
(draw no more cards), or hit (draw more cards) until you
decide
to stand. If your card count goes over 21, you
lose. In the event that the Dealer has Blackjack, a Players 21
will lose. The Dealer must always hit
on 16 and stand on
17. If the Dealer goes over 21, he must pay all
hands
remaining on the table.
Doubling
Down
After you are dealt your first two cards,
unless you have a point
total of 21, you may decide to
double down. In this case, you can
increase your bet by an
amount up to your original bet.
You will then be dealt
only one more card.
Splitting Pairs
If
your first two cards have the same point value, (10, Jack,
Queen,
King they do not have to be matched pairs), you may
split them and
form two separate hands by wagering an
amount equal to the original bet. Each hand will be played and
completed in turn. You may draw as many cards as you like on
each split hand, with the exception of splitting Aces.
If
you split Aces, only one card will be dealt to each Ace. You
may also double down on split hands. You may split pairs twice
(for a total of three hands) on a seven player table and split
pairs three times
(for a total number of four hands) on a
six player table.
If you split Aces, only one card will be
dealt to each Ace.
If a Ten value card is dealt to either
Ace,
the hand is counted as 21, not Black
jack.
Insurance
If the Dealers up card is
an Ace, he will announce insurance.
You may make an
insurance bet before any other Player receives a
third
card. This involves placing a separate bet, of up to one-half
of your original bet, in front of your original bet. The
insurance bet is entirely separate from the original bet. If
the Dealer has Blackjack, you will be
paid two to one on
the insurance bet. If the Dealer does not have
Black jack,
you will lose the insurance
bet.
BlackJack
In the event that the
Dealer has Black jack, the Player can only lose his original
wager; split and double down bets are returned to the Player.
In the event that the Player has Black jack and the Dealer
does not
have an Ace or Ten value card as the first face
up card,
the Dealer shall pay the Player's Black jack
wager at
odds of 3 to 2 and remove the Player's cards
prior to any
Players receiving a third card. If the
Dealers face up card is an
Ace or Ten value card, all
Players hands shall be acted
upon.
