Welcome to...
...a game of logic, luck and skill.
How to Play
OBJECT OF THE GAME
Each player attempts to beat the dealer by getting a count as close to 21 as possible, without going over 21.
CARD VALUES & SCORING
It is up to each individual player if an ace is worth 1 or 11. Face cards are 10 and any other card is its pip value.
BETTING
Before the deal begins, each player places a bet, in chips, in front of them. Minimum bet is $1, maximum is unlimited.
THE DEAL
Each player starts with two cards, the dealer gives one card face up to each player in rotation clockwise, and then one card face up to themselves. Another round of cards is then dealt face up to each player, but the dealer takes the second card face down.
Type of Plays
HIT
To "hit" is to ask for another card. Players can hit as many times as they want but will automatically be out of the game if they go over 21.
STAND
To "stand" is to hold your total and end your turn
DOUBLING DOWN
"Doubling Down" is like a hit, but only when the bet is doubled. When a player doubles down they can only "hit" once and will only receive one card. Note: players can also double down on a split
SPLITING
Sorry "splits" are not offered at this casino!
MINTJACK & 21
MintJack and 21 both pay out the amount you bet. MintJack can be achieved with a two-card combo of an Ace and Jack (or any other card valued at 10). 21 is achieved by adding mulitple cards up to 21.
DEALER
The dealer must continue to hit until the cards total 17 or higher. Dealer will not hit on a soft 17.

Really bad at math? Don't worry! We add up your card values for you.
Once you or the house has won, you will see a pop-up notification letting you know the results of the game. After clearing the board to start a new hand, your earning (if you had any) will appear in your bank.
