Table rules
Get closer to 21 than the dealer without going over. Number cards count as shown, face cards count as 10, and Aces count as 1 or 11. Hit takes another card. Stand ends your turn.
The dealer checks for blackjack before your turn and stands on all 17s, including soft 17. A two-card blackjack pays 3:2. Other wins pay 1:1; ties return your wager. Double Down doubles your wager, deals exactly one card, then ends your turn. Split matching ranks into separate hands with equal wagers, up to four hands. Double Down is allowed after a split. Split Aces receive one card each and cannot be split again. A split-hand 21 pays 1:1. Surrender is available only as your first action on the original hand, after the dealer checks for blackjack, and returns half your wager. When the dealer shows an Ace, you may take insurance for half the original wager or decline it. Insurance is a separate side bet, pays 2:1 if the dealer has blackjack, and otherwise loses. The dealer checks the hidden card only after you decide; surrender is offered afterward if the main hand continues. Each session starts with a freshly shuffled six-deck shoe. Subsequent hands use the remaining cards in order. Start a new session when the shoe runs low.
