To make play more exciting, there are a few options with certain dealt card patterns. Additionally, if the dealer's cards total 21 or are a higher value than the player's, the dealer wins. If a player goes over 21, their hand is a 'bust' and they lose the bet. If the player stands, they choose to stick with the cards they have, hoping they are closer than the dealer to 21 and haven't gone over. Once the cards are dealt, a player can choose to 'hit' or 'stand.' If the player chooses to hit, they will receive another card in the hopes of getting closer to 21 without going over. The ace can either be counted as 1 or 11. Cards 2 through 10 are worth face value, but face cards are all worth 10. From more than one traditional 52-card deck, players are dealt one card facing up and one facing down.
The object of Blackjack is to beat the dealer with a hand that gets as close as possible to 21 without going over. Our tables are located in the Arena Poker Room™ and along the grand walkway on the casino floor within easy access of great drinks at Palo Verde Lounge and amazing seafood at Ocean Trail. Blackjack is one of the most popular games at Talking Stick Resort ®.
