Classic Blackjack is one of the most commonly played table games in the world. There are millions of players who flock to land based blackjack tables or online casinos in order to enjoy this game. This is because the game is simple and it requires skill and not only luck.
The main purpose of any game of Blackjack is to have a hand total that is equal 21, this is why the game is also referred to as 21. Players who do not get to 21 will have to be as close as 21 without going over that number because that means they will bust and they will instantly lose.
The online version includes two sides. The player and the dealer. There are no players involved in this game as players will only have to beat the blackjack hand of the dealer.
Players will be dealt two cards facing up while the dealer will be dealt on card, and this card will be facing up. Players will then decide if they want to hold or if they want to get another card. It all depends on their hand total and the odds of getting closer or going over 21 compared to the dealer. After players decide if they want to stand, the dealer will reveal his second card and he will keep hitting until he reaches or passes 17. The dealer has to stop at all 17s, whether soft or hard. Blackjack pays players three to two while a normal win pays one to one. Players can also place insurance bet that pays two to one.
