Online Blackjack School: How to Play the Game

This online blackjack school will teach you about the exciting game of blackjack. The blackjack game is essentially played between you and the dealer, with the other players around the table being of no relevance to your hand. At this online blackjack school you will learn that the dealer deals two cards to you and two to himself. In some variations of blackjack, one of the dealer’s cards is showing.

This online blackjack school shows that, based on the value of the two cards that you have been dealt, you need to get to, or closest to, the number 21 without exceeding this number (which is known as going ‘bust’). There are several options that you can choose from at this stage. The two main ones are as follows: you can choose to hit (ask for another card to be dealt to you) or you can ask to stand (stick with the cards that you have).

As you progress through the online blackjack school, you will learn that there exist other options, such as doubling, surrendering or taking insurance. A more in-depth understanding of the game is required to pick these. If the player manages to reach a number nearer to 21 than the dealer – or if the dealer goes bust – the player is declared the winner and wins. If the dealer is dealt a 21 or gets nearer to this number than the player, the house wins. You can gain a clear picture of the workings of a blackjack game by downloading free software off any good blackjack site and playing the game in its practice mode.
