Blackjack is one of the most popular card games in the world. It is an exciting card game which involves betting on cards and trying to get as close to 21 points without going bust (i.e. without having an Ace showing).

The game consists of two parts. In the first, the dealer will be given a set of cards and he will ask the player to place a bet. The player can bet with either money or with additional chips which he has collected on the previous rounds.

When a player feels that his hand is strong enough, he can decide to hit or stand. When the player chooses to stand, he wins all of his chips on his initial bet. When he wants to hit, he can do it on his hand or on his extra card.

If a player gets 21 points on his hand, he can choose to stop the game or to continue. He can continue by either paying half of his initial bet or by getting additional chips.

If the dealer does not reach 21 points, the game continues. The dealer will get another card and the player can either hit or stand. The player can also split his cards into two hands and make a bet on both hands.

The player can choose to either surrender his hands or to continue. If he chooses to surrender, then the dealer will win his bet and the player will win half of his initial bet.
