How to play blackjack
New to the table? This is how to play blackjack, step by step. The goal is simple: get a hand total closer to 21 than the dealer, without going over.
- Set your bet in virtual chips and press Deal. You and the dealer each get two cards; one dealer card stays face down.
- Read your total. Number cards score their value, face cards score 10, and an ace is 1 or 11, whichever helps.
- Choose Hit to take another card or Stand to keep your total.
- On the right two-card hands you can Double (double the bet for exactly one more card) or Split a pair into two hands.
- Go over 21 and you bust and lose the hand. Reach five cards without busting and the Five-Card Charlie house rule gives you an automatic win.
- Closest to 21 wins. A two-card 21 is a blackjack and pays 3:2. The balance is free to reset, so every hand doubles as blackjack practice.
Blackjack rules
The blackjack rules in this simulator are short and simple. In brief: beat the dealer without going over 21, blackjack pays 3:2, and the dealer must stand on 17. The full rule set:
Rules directly shape the odds and the correct play. For what to do with every possible hand, see the full blackjack strategy chart.
Hit, stand, double and split explained
Four core decisions cover almost every hand. Learning when to use each is the heart of blackjack.
Hit take a card
Draw another card to improve a low total. Best when your hand is weak and the dealer shows a strong up card like 7 through ace.
Stand keep total
Take no more cards. Right when you already hold a strong total, or when the dealer shows a weak up card (2–6) and is likely to bust.
Double 2× bet, 1 card
Double your bet and take exactly one more card. Strongest on totals of 10 or 11, where a single card often makes a powerful hand.
Split pairs only
Turn a pair into two separate hands with a matching bet. Always split aces and eights; never split tens or fives.
Blackjack basic strategy
Blackjack basic strategy is the mathematically optimal move for every combination of your hand and the dealer's up card. Following it gives you the lowest possible house edge — and this page doubles as a blackjack basic strategy trainer: play a hand, check the correct move, and repeat until the right play is automatic.
The complete chart — hard totals, soft totals, and pairs — plus the reasoning behind every move lives in our dedicated Blackjack Strategy Chart article. Open it next to the table and use it while you play.
Blackjack odds and house edge
Method: this estimate combines two independently seeded Monte Carlo runs totalling 10,000,000 rounds. The model mirrors the simulator's 6-deck shoe, dealer peek, stand on soft 17, 3:2 blackjack, double on any two cards, double after split, up to four split hands, one card after splitting aces, no surrender, declined insurance and automatic even-money win on a non-busted five-card hand. It assumes enough virtual balance for every recommended split and double. The 95% confidence interval is approximately ±0.07 percentage points, so the result is best read as a return of about 101.0% of the initial stake, not an exact guarantee. When returns are divided by every unit actually staked—including extra split and double bets—the simulated return ratio is 100.85%.
Shuffle and RNG: the live game creates a 312-card shoe and uses an in-browser Fisher–Yates shuffle powered by JavaScript's Math.random(), rebuilding the shoe when fewer than 60 cards remain. That is suitable for a free practice simulator, but it is a browser pseudo-random generator—not a certified casino or cryptographic RNG.
Short sessions can still finish far above or below the estimate. The balance has no cash value, and these figures describe this simulator only; they must not be applied to a real blackjack table with different rules.
Free blackjack — play for fun only
Every hand uses virtual credits: there are no deposits, withdrawals, prizes or account requirements. Reset the balance whenever you want and use the table to test decisions without financial risk.

What is basic strategy in blackjack?

Does the house edge change with the rules?
Yes. A reproducible 10-million-round Monte Carlo model of this simulator's exact rules and Charlie-aware strategy estimates a 100.96% long-run return relative to the initial stake: a −0.96% house edge, equivalent to a +0.96% player edge. The return ratio across every unit staked, including extra split and double bets, is 100.85%. The 95% confidence interval is about ±0.07 percentage points, and short sessions can vary widely.
