The cards belonging to the players are faced down whereas one card of the dealer is faced up and the other is faced down. The bets are placed by everyone after this. The main goal of the game is to make a total score of 21 and not beyond it with the two cards. The player who makes up a score of 21 or closer to 21 wins. The value of the cards is fixed like from 2 to 10, the cards have the same value as the face value of these cards. The jack, queen and king carry ten points each and the aces can either be valued at 1 or 11 as per the choice of the player. If these are valued 11 then the hand is called ‘soft’ otherwise it is known as a ‘hard’ hand.
