Short Description
Classic BlackJack Rules
Our Classic BlackJack game has a dealer and one player. The dealer deals from a shoe containing six decks of playing cards. Before the deal, the players place their bets by clicking on either the $1 chip, $5 chip, $25 chip or the $100 chip, to reach the desired bet. After deciding on the desired bet the player must click the "Deal" button to proceed with the hand. The round begins after all participants have bet and clicked "Deal

Once the deal begins the bets may not be changed. During the course of the hand players may add to their bets through Double Down, Splits and Insurance. After the cards are dealt, you will be offered the appropriate option. Buttons, located on the lower center of the screen, will appear in order to facilitate the player's desired action. For example, if it is possible to split two cards a button will appear to allow the player to split the cards. The player simply clicks on the "Split" button in order to split.

The minimum bet is $1 and the maximum bet is $500. Each player receives two cards, face up, and the dealer receives one card, face up. The player may request as many additional cards as desired, until he chooses to "Stand" or "Bust". If a player is dealt Classic BlackJack, which is a 10 or face card along with an Ace, they are immediately paid 1.5 times the placed bet, unless the dealer also has Classic BlackJack, in which case it is a "Push" (the player's bet left on the table).

After all players' bets have been completed, the dealer completes their hand. If the dealer has sixteen or less, they must draw a card (Hit), until they reach seventeen or more. If the dealer's card total exceeds 21 (Bust), they must pay all players remaining in the hand.

• "Double Down": A player may select the "Double" option after being dealt two cards. The Double option automatically doubles the player's bet and deals one additional card, face up. The player cannot draw any additional cards. The player may double down on any first dealt two cards or after splitting a pair.
  
  "Split": If the player is dealt any pair of cards, on the first two cards (i.e., two Fives, two Jacks, etc.), they may split the cards into two separate hands. The split option automatically places an additional bet, equal to the original wager. Each hand is then played independently, and the player may take as many Hits as desired on each hand (with the exception of Aces, which receive one additional card only, per hand). In the case of split Aces, a player's Classic BlackJack is not possible and is considered as a regular 21. In this case, a dealer's Classic BlackJack wins, and a dealer's 21 becomes a "Push".
  
  "Insurance": If the dealer shows an Ace, the player has the option of making an "Insurance Bet". This equals half the original bet, and ensures that the player will not lose their wager should the dealer be concealing a 10 or face card under their Ace. If, in fact, the dealer's down card is equal to 10, the player wins the Insurance Bet at odds of 2-1. If the dealer's down card has a value of less than 10, the player loses the Insurance Bet and continues normally with the hand.
  
  "Push": A Push refers to when the dealer and the player have the same numerical count in their hands. In this event the play is a draw, and the players
