| Blackjack |
A blackjack, or 'natural', comprises a total of 21 in your first two cards. A blackjack is therefore an Ace and any 10-point card, with the additional requirement that these be your first two cards. If you split a pair of Aces, for example, and then draw a ten-point card on one of the Aces, this will not count as blackjack, but rather a total of 21. Your blackjack beats any dealer total (including a dealer's regular 21) except a dealer's blackjack. If both you and the dealer have a blackjack, the hand is a tie or 'push', and nobody wins or loses. |

1 to 1 |
| Surrender |
You have chosen to surrender after viewing the first two cards dealt to you. |
Half of your wager is returned to you. |
| Push |
The totals of both the dealer's and your hand are the same |
Tie, your wager is returned. |
| Insurance |
Offered on the dealer's Ace to insure your hand against the dealer receiving a blackjack. It costs 50% of the bet amount, in addition to the initial bet placed by you. |
If the dealer gets a blackjack, the insurance bet pays 2:1. You lose the initial bet. If the dealer does not get a blackjack, you lose the insured bet, and the game continues for the initial bet amount. |
