OPTIONS |
BLACKJACK
Blackjack is a 2 card 21, and the payoff is 2 to 1 on your original
bet. |
TIES
All ties between a Player and the Dealer PUSH (no one wins, no
one loses).
|
DEALER
BLACKJACK vs. PLAYER BLACKJACK
This is considered a PUSH.
The Player does not win or lose his bet. |
DOUBLE
DOWN
A Player may Double Down on his hand.
When Doubling Down the Player must match his original bet, and
is then dealt
only one additional card.
The optimum hands for Doubling Down are 9, 10 or 11.
|
SPLITTING
A Player may Split his hand if his two cards are of the same numerical
value.
The Player then matches his original bet and plays his cards as
two hands.
A Player may Split his hand more than once if he is once again
dealt a card of the same
numerical value.
|
SPLITTING
ACES
Aces are considered extremely valuable cards and may be Split
only once.
Because they are so valuable, Players are dealt only ONE additional
card per Ace.
When Aces are Split and a Player is dealt a face card or a ten,
the hand is considered 21
- NOT Blackjack - and the payoff is 1 to 1. |
DOUBLE
DOWN AFTER SPLIT
A Player may Double Down after Splitting his cards. |
FIVE
CARD CHARLIE
When the fifth card dealt to a Player brings the total of his
cards to 21 or less,
the Player automatically wins the hand (no matter what the Dealer's
hand totals).
The payoff for a Five Card Charlie is 2 to 1. |
