European Blackjack enjoys worldwide popularity. In this version of blackjack, the dealer does not receive a second card (or hole card) until after all the player hands have been completed. Liberal split and double down rules are included to ensure an exciting gaming experience.

Rules for the game and descriptions of game features are provided below to make the game easier and more enjoyable to play.

All face cards are valued at ten and the cards from 2-10 are valued as indicated. Aces can be valued at either one or eleven; if counting the Ace as eleven would put the hand over twenty-one, the Ace is automatically counted as one instead.



You do not need to specify which value the Ace has as it's always assumed to have the value that makes the best hand. The value of a hand is the sum of the values of the individual cards. For example, a hand containing a Jack, 3, and 4 has a value of 17. The object of the game is to beat the score of the dealer without exceeding a total of 21.
