Blackjack aims to beat the dealer without passing 21. Hit, stand, double and split affect the house edge.
Card values: 2–10 at face value, J/Q/K worth 10, and Ace worth 1 or 11.
The opening deal gives each side two cards, including a visible dealer up-card.
Hit adds a card; stand retains the present total.
A total above 21 loses immediately, regardless of the dealer's later result.
An Ace with any 10-value card as your first two cards makes a 'blackjack', which typically pays 3:2.
Doubling raises the stake for a single extra card; splitting gives a pair separate hands.
These are general rules; actual rules and payouts belong to the selected table.
The chart assumes a multi-deck game with the dealer standing on soft 17. H = Hit, S = Stand, D = Double (otherwise hit), P = Split.
