Blackjack rules and its variations

Blackjack can be summarized as a card game where the player compares his cards with the dealer, meaning that players compete against the dealer but not against any other players. It is played with one or more decks of 52 cards depending on its variation. The goal of the game is always to beat the dealer, which can be done in different ways:

  • Get 21 points on the player's first two cards (called a blackjack), without a dealer blackjack;
  • Reach a final score higher than the dealer without exceeding 21; or
  • Let the dealer draw additional cards until his or her hand exceeds 21.

Another common trait in all Blackjack variations it’s the value of the cards, which is: the numbered deck has the same attribution value, that is, the 2 has the value 2, the 3 is worth 3 and so on. The figured cards have the value of ten, minus the Ace. Aces are worth 1 and may be worth 11, depending on what suits your hand best (this wild card will have a score that often defines the game). 

Another aspect common to all Blackjack variations are the most common steps players take during a game, which can be:

  • Double: the player can choose to double the bet on the first two cards, but will receive only one more card, and will not be able to ask for another one.
  • Split: the player can split the first two cards, if they have the same numerical value.
  • Stop: if the player is satisfied with his hand and doesn't want to ask for more cards.

Now, let’s get to know different types of blackjack and what makes them special and unique.

CLASSIC BLACKJACK

In this game the dealer starts with a single card. Another characteristic of classic Blackjack is that the player can opt for an insurance bet. That bet allows you to recover your losses in case the house has blackjack. After everyone has made their decision, the dealer finishes dealing the cards, totaling 2, to find out who wins in the end.

EUROPEAN BLACKJACK

One of the most outstanding aspects of this version is that participants can play with a total of 8 decks of cards, which must be shuffled each round. Another of the most well-known characteristics of European Blackjack is that it is not allowed to take a look, in addition to the fact that it is common that the 4, the 5 or the 10 can be divided.

AMERICAN BLACKJACK

The main difference of this game compared to others lies in the very beginning of the game. The dealer is obliged to show his first card and, in case that card is an Ace or a 10, he must also reveal the second card. In case the dealer of blackjack the game ends immediately, the players who also have blackjack can keep their bets, the others lose it.

BLACKJACK VEGAS STRIP

This game, as the name indicates, is the one that is played in almost all the casinos in the city of Las Vegas. Here the dealer deals a card to each player at the uncovered table and at the end one to him, always face up. Then, the second card for the players is dealt face up and his is covered. If the one that is discovered is an Ace, insurance is offered to the players, for losses.

BLACKJACK SWITCH 

The player plays with two two-card hands at the same time. The funny aspect of this game is that it allows the player to do what is normally considered a classic cheating maneuver which is trading cards between two hands. The player can exchange the second card of one hand for the second card of the other. Also, blackjack is paid at 1: 1, and not at 3: 2 as in the standard version.
