The basic and the main aim of the BlackJack game is to make a hand value which is 21 or closer to 21 but the hand value cannot go past 21. Your hand is played strictly played in accordance to the hand of the dealer. The card are valued in BlackJack Game as :-- Ace ---> 1 or 11. If your hand value is not going over 21 when taking the vlue of Ace as 11 or 1, then the value of the Ace can be taken as 11, but if it going over the 21, then the Ace value can be taken as 1.
The values of the cards contained in a deck of cards are as follows:
1. A card from 2 to 10 has its face value;
2. A jack, queen, or king has a value of 10; and
3. An ace may have a value of either 1 or 11 unless a value of 11 would give a player or the dealer a score in excess of 21, in which case it has a value of one.
If your hand value is easily keeping beyond the value of 21 on taking the Ace value as 11, then the hand is said to be Soft hand, and Hard hand if you are forced to take the value of Ace as 1.
Your hand is a BlackJack (or a 'natural' )if value of your two card hand is 21 i.e an Ace and ten-value card.
