Your aim is to collect 21 or blackjack (Ace and any card with a face) or to get the higher value than the dealer gets. If both you and the dealer collect blackjack, the hand results in a win. In case you are satisfied with the hand, press the “Stand” button not to get more cards. If your hand is not strong enough to beat the dealer’s one, you can hit another card. You will automatically lose if you collect more than 21 points. In addition to that, you can also use early or late surrender and get half of your bet back. Finally, if you received two cards with the same denomination, you can split.

Do not hesitate to split Aces, but never split cards, valued at 10.
