How To Play Blackjack  


Game resolution

If all the players to the dealers left are either bust or have chosen to stand then the dealer must expose their hole card, or deal a second card to himself in the case of a non-hole game. Additional cards are then drawn until they go bust or get a pat hand.

Some casinos rule that if a dealer has a soft 17 it cannot be considered a pat hand and the dealer must reach the total, (soft hands consist of at least one 11-valued Ace). Other casinos insist that the dealer must stand when they have a total of 17 or more. This rule would usually be printed clearly on the table.

Once a “pat hand” is reached by the dealer, they must stop drawing cards. Then the bets are paid out according to the following rules:

  • If the player wins by having a higher total than the dealer, the dealer must pay them an amount equal to that in the playing area.
  • If the player is dealt a Blackjack they will receive their original wager plus half that amount again.
  • If the players total is lower than the dealers the player loses all the chips in their box.
  • If a dealer goes bust, then each remaining player wins regardless of their totals and the dealer must pay them an amount equal to that in the playing area.
