Blackjack, after standard poker games, is considered the most beloved product of the gambling industry. There are simple betting options, a fun atmosphere and the ability to implement different tactics. Although blackjack gained wide popularity during the First World War, its origins stretch back to the 1800s - then in France it was called Vingt-et-Un (21). Nowadays, the game can be found in almost all gambling clubs in the world.You should familiarize yourself with the rules of how blackjack works. The essence of the process is to defeat the dealer, while collecting the maximum points, but not more than 21. The player takes the payout 3: 2 and wins all other participants if after the cards are issued he adds blackjack (that is, an ace and 10). Sometimes it happens that the dealer draws himself a card with 10 points and a face card (or an ace) the first time. Then he can also fold the blackjack, which is why other participants with blackjack are allowed to choose between two options: pick up the 1: 1 reward or wait for the end of the round (and pick up the 3: 2 payout if the dealer fails to blackjack). If the score is equal, the dealer and the player have a push: everyone gets their initial amounts. Before the first distribution, gamers place bets using chips on specific positions. After that, they get two revealed cards, and the dealer draws out both open and closed. Those who don’t get blackjack with the first hand can ask for another card (Hit) or stay with their points (Stand). If the player has more than 21 points after acquiring an additional card, then his bet is taken to the bank of the gambling club. If the dealer has a total of 21 after the first hand, then all those who play without blackjack lose their bet.Successful tactics in classic blackjack are for the player to take optimal steps for the resulting alignment, while paying attention to the opponent's revealed card. If it is strong (maybe 7, 8, 9, 10 or ace), then the player can freely draw cards until he takes a total of 17 or more. When the dealer has a weak card face up, 4, 5, or 6, it is best for the player to stop drawing as soon as he has 12 or more points. The main strategy here's to never take a new card if there is a chance to burn out. Also, the tactics of doubling with a total set of 11. A player with a total of 10 can double the bet if the dealer does not hold a 10 or an ace. At the same time, with 9 points, it is advisable to increase the bet only if the dealer has cards with a value from 2 to 6.It is impossible to say with complete certainty how many versions of the game of chance there are, but over the years, more than a hundred variants of it have been registered. The most common variations that are present in online clubs and regular establishments are Blackjack Surrender, Blackjack Switch, Double Exposure. The most popular is progressive jackpot blackjack, in which each player should place a small side bet in order to qualify for the jackpot, and a portion of all side bets go to the pool. However, with a small budget, it is better to hold back from such a variation altogether, because it gives the gambling club a huge benefit.
