Blackjack Coverage

An Ace with any 10-value card as your first two cards makes a 'blackjack', which typically pays 3:2.

🎁

Double & Split: key details

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.
