Blackjack is the absolute crown jewel of the casino table games pit, offering the best mathematical odds for the educated player.

The fundamental objective of blackjack is incredibly simple, yet widely misunderstood by many beginners.

The Value of the Deck: Aces, Faces, and Numbers

All face cards (Jacks, Queens, and Kings) are universally worth exactly 10 points each.

An Ace can be counted as either 1 point or 11 points, depending entirely on which value helps your hand the most without busting.

• A hand that contains an Ace counted as 11 is called a 'Soft' hand (e.g., Ace + 6 = Soft 17), meaning you cannot bust if you take one more card
• A hand without an Ace, or where the Ace must be counted as a 1 to avoid busting, is called a 'Hard' hand (e.g., 10 + 6 = Hard 16)
• Because there are so many cards worth 10 points (10s, Jacks, Queens, Kings), you must always assume the dealer's hidden down-card is a 10

The Basic Player Actions: Hit, Stand, Double, Split

If you are satisfied with your total and want to end your turn, you wave your hand horizontally over the cards to 'Stand'.

If you are dealt a strong starting hand (like an 11), you can choose to 'Double Down'.

Once you understand how the hands are scored, you can begin memorizing the mathematical charts that tell you exactly when to hit or stand.
