The rules of the blackjack game are simple, but the mathematical
nature of the game allows us to consider it one of the most dangerous for a gambling house in
the context of possible fraud.
Blackjack is also called twenty-one. It is believed that, unlike "socializing" roulette, where
multiple winners are possible in one round and everyone collectively rejoices in the victory,
blackjack is a game for a few intellectuals. A distinctive feature of blackjack is the ability
to calculate and compile mathematical strategies.
A standard deck of 52 cards is used to play blackjack. Some
casinos use two decks mixed with each other, there are also those where 6 decks participate in
the game.
The point is to beat the dealer by scoring the most points without exceeding 21. An ace can be
rated as 1 or 11 points. Face cards are rated at 10 points, and the rest – by name (value).
Before the start of the game, each participant determines the size of the bet and places the
chips in the designated area right in front of him. The minimum and maximum bet limits can be
set by a gambling company, but as a rule, bets range from $ 1 to $ 500.
