Players are dealt two cards, and their values are added together. Face cards (jacks, queens, and kings) are worth 10 points, and aces can be worth one or 11 points, depending on the player&#8217;s choice. The other cards are worth their face values.<\/p>\n<p>If a player&#8217;s hand exceeds 21, they lose the game, known as &#8220;busting.&#8221; If a player&#8217;s hand equals the dealer&#8217;s hand, it&#8217;s called a &#8220;push,&#8221; and the player neither wins nor loses any chips. If the player&#8217;s hand value is closer to 21 than the dealer&#8217;s, the player wins, and if the dealer&#8217;s hand is closer to 21, the player loses.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Blackjack_Strategies\"><\/span>Blackjack Strategies<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>There are several strategies that players use in blackjack to improve their chances of winning:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><em>Basic Strategy:<\/em> This is a mathematically-proven strategy that suggests the best move a player can make for each possible hand they can get, based on the dealer&#8217;s upcard. Basic strategy can lower the casino&#8217;s advantage to as low as 0.5%.<\/li>\n<li><em>Card Counting:<\/em> By keeping track of which cards have been dealt, a player can determine the probability of which cards will come next and adjust their bets accordingly. This strategy is legal but not allowed in all casinos.<\/li>\n<li><em>Betting Strategy:<\/em> Players can adjust their bets based on whether they are winning or losing, or by using a progressive betting system such as the Martingale system or the Paroli system.<\/li>\n<li><em>Table Selection:<\/em> Choosing the right table can also impact a player&#8217;s chances of winning. Look for tables with favorable rules, such as those that allow players to surrender or double down after splitting.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Example_of_a_Blackjack_Table\"><\/span>Example of a Blackjack Table<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Below is an example of a <b>blackjack table layout<\/b>:<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th>Player<\/th>\n<th><\/th>\n<th><\/th>\n<th><\/th>\n<th><\/th>\n<th><\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Dealer<\/th>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>At a blackjack table, players sit across from the dealer, and each player has their own betting area.
