The goal of blackjack is to get as close to 21 points as possible without going over and it’s played with anything from 1 to 8 full decks of cards (minus jokers). Cards 2-10 score as per their face value. Jack, Queen and King are 10 points each and ace is worth either 1 or 11 at the choice of the player. You may alter the value of your ace/aces at any time, even whilst playing the same hand.
The winner
If the player gets exactly 21 with two cards and the dealer doesn’t – the player wins 1.5 x stake
If the player gets closer than the dealer to 21 without going over (going bust), the the player wins 1 x stake.
If the player busts (goes over 21) or the dealer goes closer to 21, the the player loses.
If the player and dealer gets the same score, then the game is pushed (stakes are refunded).
