Get a hand total closer to 21 than the dealer without exceeding 21. If you bust (go over 21) you lose immediately, regardless of the dealer's hand.

What are the card values?

Number cards are face value, face cards are 10, and an ace is 1 or 11 — whichever helps your hand more. The game picks the better value automatically.

When should I hit or stand?

A common rule of thumb is to stand on 17 or higher and hit on 11 or lower; in between, your decision depends on the dealer's visible card.

Tips & Strategies

Always stand on 17 or higher — the risk of busting outweighs the potential gain.
Double down on 11 whenever the dealer shows a weak card (2–9).
Never split 10-value cards; a hand of 20 is already very strong.
Split Aces and 8s — Aces give two strong starting points, and 16 is the worst hand.
Assume the dealer's hidden card is a 10; this guides smarter hit/stand decisions.
