Types Of Wins

Win Type Description Payoff
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. 1.5 to 1
Normal win Your total is greater than dealer's, but less than or equal to 21. 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.
