One of the most popular card
games, Blackjack is a favorite among those who prefer simple casino rules but
still looking for fun and thrill. Originally called “vingt-et-un” (21), the
game is said to have originated in France although Italy is also insisting the
same claim. Regardless of its roots, Blackjack has proven to be an
international favorite amongst casinos, both on land and online.
The popularity of the game is
immense, yet many people still lack substantial knowledge about the game and
its entirety.
- The term “Blackjack” was coined in the formative years of the game as its originals rules required players to hold Jack of Spades (which is colored black) in order to win the payouts.
- Blackjack comprises a huge umbrella of card games with plenty of variants. Online casinos are particularly very creative when it comes to inventing novel blackjack variants. Some of them are also designed with a specific theme.
- Most odds predict that there is only a 14 percent chance that players will lose with three consecutive hands. Meanwhile, dealers (live or virtual) may go bust 31 percent of the time.
- Here is a tip: If player is dealt with two Aces and the dealer turn up a seven, the best move to do is to Split. It is a permanent rule in Blackjack to always split Aces regardless of what the dealer has for an up-card.
- Because online casinos do not have direct contact with dealers, they may not be able to produce a “George,” or a player who tips generously to croupiers.
- The Blackjack Hall of fame, launched in 2002, honors blackjack experts, authors, and professional players who have made significant contributions to the game.
