Learn to play Double Deck Blackjack and improve on your skills.

The whole objective of the game is for a player to come as close to 21 without going over, while still having a higher total then the dealer. The player must place a bet before receiving his cards, and the cards are dealt in rotation from the Dealer, left-to-right. The Dealer’s hand has one card face down and one face up, if the players card total is closer to 21 then the dealer’s, the player wins that hand.

The player wins if the Dealer’s card is higher than 21(known as a bust) and when the Dealer’s score is 21 made up of three or more cards. If your score is higher than 21 you will automatically lose. Players have the option to play one or two hands again the Dealer. You have a Blackjack when the first two cards equal 21.

  • Hit – Used when you want to be dealt another card. Players can hit as many times as they like unless the total of the cards equals or exceeds 21.
  • Stand – Used when you want to keep the hand dealt to you. This automatically happens if you hit 21 or double down.
  • Double – After being dealt the first two cards a Player can decide to double down. The bet on the hand is doubled and one additional card is dealt to the Player.
  • Split – This option is available when the first two cards dealt to the Player are of equal value. They are then split into two separate hands. An additional bet equal to the original bet is placed on the table. The Player plays both hands to completion. Any winning score of 21 including an ace and 10-value card after a split is paid 1 to 1.
  • Rebet – When a hand is complete, you have the option to rebet the amount previously bet.
  • Insurance – If the Dealer is showing an ace, the Player is offered a supplemental bet called insurance. A wager of exactly half of the original bet is placed on the table. If the Dealer has Blackjack, the house pays the Insurance bet 2 to 1. If the Dealer does not have Blackjack, the Player loses the insurance bet, and the Player’s initial bet is then settled by comparing his cards with the Dealer’s. If the Dealer and the Player both have Blackjack, the game is pushed and the Player gets the amount won by taking insurance, called even money.
