Blackjack: its history
To understand why blackjack is the hallmark of casino card games, you have to go back to the origins of the game. It appeared in the French gaming rooms at the end of the 17th century. It is known as "twenty-one" or blackjack. The nobility and the bourgeoisie enjoyed playing this card game with its short games and easy to remember rules.
Unlike what the English name might suggest, blackjack was not exported to the United States until later. As a matter of fact, French immigrants introduced it in the 19th century. Unfortunately, it was not as successful as expected.
The card game became popular, only in the 20th century, with the general public.

- Heads (jacks, queens, kings) are worth 10 points
- The ace is worth 1 or 11 points, depending on the variant of the game you are playing
To achieve a Blackjack, you must hold a hand of two cards, whose sum is 21. This can be a face card (10 points) and an Ace (11 points).
To start the game, players place their bets, and then cards are dealt to each player. Two cards are dealt face up to each player, and two other cards are placed in the center of the game. One remains face down while the other is face up.
Depending on their hand and strategy, each player can take the following actions :
- Request an additional card: hit. However, the sum of their cards in hand must not exceed 21
- Stay on their hand: stand
- Double their initial bet: double down
- Split their cards: split. In the case of cards of identical values, the player can decide to bet again and be dealt another hand. The two hands are independent of each other.
