But even for the casual participant who plays a reasonably good game, the casino odds are less, making Blackjack one 🍋 of the most attractive casino games for the player. While the popularity of Blackjack dates from World War I, its 🍋 roots go back to the 1760s in France, where it is called Vingt-et-Un (French for 21). Today, Blackjack is the 🍋 one card game that can be found in every American casino. As a popular home game, it is played with 🍋 slightly different rules. In the casino version, the house is the dealer (a "permanent bank"). In casino play, the dealer 🍋 remains standing, and the players are seated. The dealer is in charge of running all aspects of the game, from 🍋 shuffling and dealing the cards to handling all bets. In the home game, all of the players have the opportunity 🍋 to be the dealer (a "changing bank").

The Pack

The standard 52-card pack is used, but in most casinos several decks of 🍋 cards are shuffled together. The six-deck game (312 cards) is the most popular. In addition, the dealer uses a blank 🍋 plastic card, which is never dealt, but is placed toward the bottom of the pack to indicate when it will 🍋 be time for the cards to be reshuffled. When four or more decks are used, they are dealt from a 🍋 shoe (a box that allows the dealer to remove cards one at a time, face down, without actually holding one 🍋 or more packs).

Object of the Game

Each participant attempts to beat the dealer by getting a count as close to 21 🍋 as possible, without going over 21.
