What is the objective of internet blackjack?
Blackjacks objective is for a player to come as close as he can to 21 without going over. The player must still, however, have a higher number than the dealer. Before he receives any cards the player must place a wager. When the wager has been made the player is dealt two cards face up. The dealer is also dealt two. If the player's cards are greater than the dealers then the player will win as much as he wagered. The player can also win if the dealer goes over 21. The dealer wins if his cards are higher than the players but still under 21 or if the player goes over 21. Below is a picture of what your screen may look like when playing blackjack online.
