How do I play?
The object of the Blackjack game is to accumulate cards with point totals as close to 21 without going over 21. Face cards (Jacks, Queens and Kings) are worth 10 points. Aces are worth 1 or 11, whichever is preferable. Other cards are represented by their number.

The dealer plays, what if we draw?
If player and the House tie, it is a "push" and no one wins. Ace and 10 (Blackjack) on the first two cards dealt is an automatic player win at 1.5 to 1, unless the house ties.

Do I have to play even if I get a good hand straight away?
No, a player may stop (it's call "stand" in Blackjack) at any time.

Gameplay tips:
1) Special options in Blackjack: Blackjack players have special options know as Insurance and Double Down.
2) Insurance: This is a side bet up to half the initial bet against the dealer having a natural 21 - allowed only when the dealer's showing card is an Ace.
3) Double Down: You double your initial bet following the initial two-card deal, but you can hit one card only.
