European Blackjack

European Blackjack
can best be described as a game of skill (or possibly chance!) between you and the blackjack dealer.

Different casinos use differing amounts of playing card decks usually between one and six.

European Blackjack is played with just two decks of cards each one consisting of all of 52 playing cards.
Before the game starts the cards are shuffled.

To win you simply need to get a better hand than the dealers without going over a total of twenty one, or hope the dealer "Busts" ( going over twenty one in total )

You can only bet on one hand at a time

If you didnt know what a "Blackjack" is its quite simply
when you have a hand with a ten ( either a ten or a picture/face card) and an ace.

This is the best hand a player can get when playing blackjack and instantly the hand will stand, a blackjack hand cannot be beaten
it can only be matched.
