You can increase or decrease the amount you
wish to wager with the Increase and Decrease buttons. The size
of the column of Casino chips will change as you do this.
Once you have decided on the size of your bet you can start
the game. Click on the Deal button.
The Dealer will deal you two cards and deal himself one card.
As soon as the last card is dealt you will be able to decide
whether to hit (take another card) or stand (stay).
If your first two cards dealt to you are an Ace and a card
of value ten then you have Blackjack and unless the dealer has
an Ace or Ten you automatically win the game and are paid out
2.5 times your original bet.
If you draw another card (hit) and the value of your hand now
exceeds 21 then you have gone 'bust' and have lost this hand.
You may play again by clicking on the Deal button.
If you are satisfied with your hand click the Stand button
to end the game. The dealer will now draw cards until his hand
exceeds or equals 17 in value. If the dealer's hand exceeds
21 you win because the dealer has gone 'bust.' If the dealer's
hand exceeds 17 in value but is less than 21 the value of the
two hands are compared and the stronger hand wins.
If your hand is stronger than the dealer's you receive double
your wager back. If not, you lose your wager and can play again.
