Basic strategy is the best way to play a blackjack hand on the first round after a shuffle, assuming you see no cards other than your own and the dealer’s upcard. For a person who does not count cards, basic strategy is the best way to play every hand. The insurance pays 2:1 if the dealer’s hand is a blackjack. The dealer with blackjack wins except the player’s hand that also has a blackjack. All the possible bets are posted on the table. The player wins 1:1 that is the same amount as he bets. The payout for blackjack is 3:2. Blackjack is a casino banked game, meaning that players compete against the house rather than each other. The objective is to get a hand total of closer to 21 than the dealer without going over 21 (busting). At the start of a Blackjack game, the players and the dealer receive two cards each.

Rules of Play

Buster Blackjack is an optional side bet that allows players to win odds when the dealer busts. The odds-based payouts are determined by the number of cards in the dealer’s busted hand. The higher amount of cards in the dealer’s busted hand, the higher the payout for the Buster bet. Players can win both their Blackjack bet and Buster bet when the dealer busts. Players may lose their Blackjack bet by busting their hand, but still win their Buster bet if the dealer busts. If all players’ hands bust, the dealer must still play out his/her hand according to house rules if any Buster bets have been made. If the dealer does not bust, all Buster bets lose. Winning Buster bets are paid odds based off the number of cards it takes the dealer to bust.
