Casino Games & Slots - Blackjack - Understanding Blackjack

Blackjack is a classic card game that's easy to learn and play, and it's now available to play online on GGPoker! Here's a quick guide to help you get started:

  1. How to play: The goal of blackjack is to have a hand value of 21 or as close to 21 as possible without going over. The value of your hand is determined by adding up the values of each card. With picture cards being worth 10 and Aces either 1 or 11
  2. Getting started: To start playing blackjack on GGPoker, simply login to your account and navigate to the blackjack tables. Select a table with a bet size that you're comfortable with, and you'll be seated at the table.
  3. Placing bets: Before each round, you'll need to place a bet by clicking on the chips in the bottom right corner of the screen. Once you've placed your bet, you'll be dealt two cards.
  4. Playing your hand: After you've been dealt your cards, you'll have a few options for how to play your hand:
  • Hit: Take another card from the deck
  • Stand: Keep your current hand
  • Double down: Double your bet and take one more card
  • Split: If you have two cards of the same value, you can split them into two hands.
  1. The dealer's hand: The dealer will then play their hand according to a set of rules. The dealer must hit if their hand value is less than 17, and they must stand if their hand value is 17 or higher.
  2. Winning the game: If your hand value is higher than the dealer's hand value, without going over 21, you win the game. If the dealer goes over 21, you also win.

Responsible Gambling:

Blackjack is a fun game, but it's important always to gamble responsibly. Here are a few tips to help you stay in control:

  1. Set a budget: Before you start playing, decide how much you're comfortable spending and stick to that amount.
  2. Take breaks: Regular breaks can help you avoid becoming too absorbed in the game and give you time to reassess your spending.
  3. Know when to stop: If you're losing more than you can afford or feeling upset or stressed, it's time to take a break or stop playing altogether.
