How Blackjack works
Beat the dealer's hand without going over 21. Nothing is staked on it: the hand itself is the game.
Read the full Blackjack rules and tips1. Two cards each
Face cards are ten, an ace is one or eleven, whichever helps. The dealer keeps one card face down.
2. Hit or stand
Hit for another card, stand to keep what you have. Over 21 and the hand is lost whatever the dealer does.
3. Split a pair
Two cards of the same rank can be played as two hands, each drawing its own cards. Split aces take one card each and stand.
Questions
About Blackjack.
What is the goal of Blackjack?
Beat the dealer's hand without going over 21. Nothing is staked on it: the hand itself is the game.
Is Blackjack free?
Yes. Blackjack is one of 48 games in PlayBurst, a single free app. It is free, nothing is locked in front of it, and no purchase in the app unlocks a game: the shop sells coins and removing the ads, and that is all it sells.
Can I play Blackjack without a connection?
Yes. Blackjack runs on your device rather than on a server, so it keeps working on a plane or in the back of a car. The first launch of PlayBurst reaches out once to set up your guest account, and opens anyway if it cannot.
Where can I get Blackjack?
Nowhere yet. PlayBurst is not out on any store at the time of writing. The Amazon Appstore comes first, for Fire tablets, then Google Play and the App Store, and the links land on this page the day they exist.
