Blackjack
Beat the dealer to 21 without going bust. 1–6 players.
Also known as 21, Twenty-One, and Pontoon.
How to play Blackjack
- 1Play chips only — never real money. Everyone starts with 1,000 chips and plays against the dealer, not each other.
- 2Each hand, place a bet of 10–500 chips in steps of 10 (never more than you have). You and the dealer get two cards; one of the dealer's stays face down.
- 3Get closer to 21 than the dealer without going over. Number cards count their number, face cards 10, and an ace 1 or 11.
- 4Hit to take a card, stand to stop. Double to double your bet and take exactly one more card. Split two cards of the same rank into two hands with a second bet (split aces get one card each).
- 5An ace and a ten-card in your first two cards is blackjack and pays 3 to 2 — since bets come in tens, that's always exact (a 30 bet wins 45). Other wins pay even money; a tie gets your bet back.
- 6If the dealer shows an ace or a ten-card, they check for blackjack first. The dealer then draws to 17 and stands on any 17. There's no insurance or surrender.
- 7The game lasts 10 hands (or until nobody can cover the 10-chip minimum). Most chips at the end wins; a tie for the most shares the win.
