The introduction: - Blackjack is a card game - You have to make a bet using popdollars (min 10, max 1000) - The numbers on the cards are important, if the total of the card numbers is 21, you win. - If you get any higher than 21, you loose automatically - You are playing against the computer - The player with the score closest to 21 wins.
How to play:
First, you make a bet and click play.
There are now four cards on the screen. The top two are the other players and the bottom two are yours. To add another card to your total, you click "another card". If you are already happy with your cards, you click "stop"
I am going to click "stop" because I don't want to risk getting a large number.
The computer player achieved a score over 21 so they have automatically lost, making me the winner! I got my bet doubled for my win. Pressing the orange button labelled "Speel!" will start a new game and will instantly place your bet.
The point system: - If you LOSE the game, you lose the money that you put in. (If your bet was $15, you will not get it back, you will just lose it) - If you WIN the game, you get the money you put in DOUBLED! (If my bet was $15, I win a total of $30) - If you DRAW with the computer player, you both get back the money you put in. (You put in $15, you get back 15)
Card values: - Each card is worth points. - An 'Ace' card is worth one point or eleven points. It varies depending on the cards you have. - All cards with a number (2-10) are worth the number that the card reads. - A Jack, King and Queen are all worth 10 points each.
How much should you bet? This really depends on how many popdollars you have. If you have under 10,000 popdollars, you should be making small bets due to the risk of losing a lot of money. If you have a large amount of popdollars, you can afford to make big bets.
Tips: Blackjack, in my opinion, is a game is luck and skill. You can't control the cards that come up and you can't control the other player but after playing for a while, you pick up on tips and little skills.
- Personally, I "stop" when my total is 16 or higher. Any less and I'll pick another card. - Be careful when the other player has an "Ace". It may mean that they will have a lower score than you. - When the other play has a 10 as their first card, there is a higher chance that they will go over 21.
Conclusion: I hope my quick guide has helped you understand BlackJack. Although I have given you advice and tips, in the end, it depends on what suits you better and remember - practice makes perfect (well, almost!) Happy betting!
