Blackjack is a casino card game that has graced the tables of casinos from East to West for hundreds of years. Originally, the earliest form of the game of blackjack was developed in the French casinos in the 1700s. The original name of the game is 21, or in French, "vingt-et un," which is the number each player hopes to be dealt with either the outcome of breaking even, or winning against the house. Making its United States debut in the 1800s, it was a legal gambling game in all venues until around 1910.

The blackjack game began to be referred to as blackjack for the optimal hand that every player wishes, strategizes or calculates for, which is receiving the ace of spades and the jack of spades. This is the blackjack! To play a game of basic blackjack, a standard deck of 52 playing cards is used. The number cards maintain their value of two through ten. Each of the face cards - jack, queen and king also are valued at ten. The four aces from the four suits of cards have either the value of eleven or one. The player can decide based on the sum of his other cards whether or not to use the ace for its highest value or its lowest value. In the event that a player receives two of the same cards, for instance: two kings, or two threes, he has the option to double down and increase his stakes two-fold. As a rule, blackjack betting takes place before the dealer hands out the cards to each player.
