Blackjack Rules - Game Controls & Terms

BET
Place a number of chips in a betting circle as a wager. Left-click in the circle to place chips, right-click to remove chips. Click on the chip icons to change cursor-chip value.

RE-BET
This button clears all cards from the table, moves all bet and payout chip stacks to player account balance, then repeats the same starting bet from the previous game for each hand in play.

DEAL
Play a hand of Blackjack for the wager placed in each betting circle. Clicking "DEAL" starts the game and commits all wagers to the outcome.

HIT
Request an additional card from the deck for the hand in play.

STAND
Take no additional cards for the hand in play.

SPLIT
Player will match the original wager and split the first two cards into two separate hands, each of which will automatically draw a second card before hand-play returns to the player. The two cards of the hand to be split must be of the same point value (for example: a pair of 8s, or a King and a Queen, etc.)

For split hands, an Ace with a ten-point card equals 21 points but is not Blackjack. In other words, the hand won't pay 3-to-2, but it will beat a Dealer hand that has 20 points or less.

Most games allow splitting an original hand up to 3 times for a total of 4 hands, but some restrict it to 2 hands (a single split). Also, most games do not allow the player to hit split aces or to re-split aces.

DOUBLE
The "DOUBLE" button will become active after the first two cards have been dealt to each hand. Players who feel confident that they are going to win this hand can "Double Down" to earn twice as much if they do win by clicking DOUBLE. Their original bet amount will be doubled automatically and they will receive exactly one additional card for the hand in play.

Double Down wagering is not permitted on a Blackjack hand. Some games may allow Double after splitting a hand.

INSURE
When the dealer's up card is an Ace, Players have an opportunity to buy "insurance", an additional amount equal to half of that Player's original wager, before any further play begins. A Player may purchase insurance when he/she believes that the dealer's down card is a ten value card. If the Dealer has Blackjack, the insurance wager pays 2-to-1. If the dealer does not have Blackjack, the insurance wager loses and the game continues as usual.

INSURE ALL
Insures all hands with qualified bets.

PASS
Player does not accept the insurance offered on this hand. If Pass is clicked and the Dealer has Blackjack, the player loses his original wager and play ends for this hand (unless Player also has Blackjack, in which case it's a push). If Dealer does not have Blackjack, play for this hand continues as normal.

PASS ALL
Declines insurance on all hands.

SURRENDER
When available, this button concedes the hand in play to the Dealer. Player forfeits half the wager but retains the other half.
