If during your gameplay, you think that an additional card would be useful, press on the Hit button. This icon can be clicked multiple times before clicking on Stand. Now if your first two cards are of the same value, you can place a second wager of equal value to split them into 2 separate hands.

The Double button lets you double your bet. How? You will be dealt with one additional card to complete your hand. If you are busted, you will automatically lose your wager. The hand is Blackjack when the first two dealt cards equal to 21. Usually, this beats a hand containing three or more cards that equal to 21.

Whenever the dealer’s first card is an ace, you will have the option to place an insurance side bet. If the dealer has Blackjack, you still win 2 to 1 on your insurance bet. If it happens that the value of the dealer’s hand is 17-21 and equals the value of your hand, the game result is a push.  Kings, Queens and Jacks are worth 10, while cards numbered 2 through 10 are worth their face values. When it comes to an Ace, it may be worth either 1 or 11, depending on which is more beneficial for you on Blackjack.
