The objective of Blackjack is to come as close to 21 without going over, while still having a higher total than the Dealer. Prior to receiving any cards, you must place a bet. Once your bet is made, you’ll be dealt two cards face up. The Dealer is also dealt two cards with one of the cards facing up. If the total value of your cards is closer to 21 than the Dealer, you win as much as was wagered.
