‘Vingt-et-un’ differs from Blackjack: it was not necessary to hit a natural for the best to win. The object of the game was to beat the dealer’s score and stay in the game. It should be noted that there wasn’t a dedicated dealer; online players took turns acting in the role of the dealer.
Basics of Modern Blackjack The goal of the game is to get a hand value that is of a higher value than the dealer’s but not over 21. The other online players at the table are of no concern as their games are also pitted against the dealer. The rules of play are strictly dictated for the dealer, so don’t worry about feeling like a suck if the dealer or if any of the other online players see your cards. In fact, when you’re learning to play, don’t hesitate to show your cards to the dealer and other online players and ask questions. Just don’t forget to tip the dealer especially if you’re winning and if he’s been helpful (in chips)! Alternatively, you can place a bet for him… If you win the proceeds are his, if you lose it goes to the house.
