Black Jack

Blackjack is a popular card game played against the dealer. The main goal is simple — get a total card value close to 21, but do not go over 21. Each player gets two cards at the start, and the dealer also gets two cards (one card is usually hidden). Number cards count as their number value, face cards (King, Queen, Jack) count as 10, and Ace can be 1 or 11.

The game is easy to understand, but you need smart decisions to win. Sometimes you should take another card, and sometimes it is better to stop. If your total goes above 21, you lose immediately. So you must think carefully before each move.

You and the dealer get two cards at the start.

Check your total card value.

You can choose “Hit” to take one more card.

You can choose “Stand” if you are happy with your total.

If your total goes over 21, you lose (this is called “bust”).

After you stand, the dealer plays their turn.

If your total is closer to 21 than the dealer’s total, you win.

If the dealer goes over 21, you win automatically.

Tip: Try to stop when your total is 17 or higher, but always watch the dealer’s open card before making a decision.
