How to play: The simplest explanation is that it is about to reach the nearest number 21. Ace gives 1 or 11 points, the dressed cards give 10 points. Both players and dealers start with 2 cards. Then the player can request a new card at a time until one is satisfied, or reaches a number over 21. That means an automatic loss. Getting 21 on the deal is called Black Jack and unless the dealer gets it, this hand gives one and a half times the bet.
There are some special rules such as split. If the player gets two cards of the same denomination then another bet can be entered and play this as two hands. The dealer may have to stop if the cards show 17 or more and must play if it is under 17. There are several variations of Black Jack and also similar games. There are similarities between Black Jack and the French Baccarat.
Game system:
A system that is considered to give higher profits in eg. Black Jack is D´Alembert's system, also called the Pyramid system . Many probably have negative associations with the word pyramids when it comes to money, and it is a good idea to keep this when it comes to this system. The system is based on higher investments in losses, and lower investments in profits. The idea here is that if you start losing, you bet more; according to the following system. You start betting 1X (how much it depends on how much you want to bet and on the casino rules). As long as you win, you continue to bet as much.
However, if you lose, you bet 2X, 3X, 4X, etc. until you finally win back the money and then you start to bet one unit less per bet you win. Ie If you have lost up to 5X then you play 6X and win, then 5X, 4X, etc. until you are down to 1X again. This may sound very good in theory, but there are two practical problems. Firstly, you can run out of your bankroll before you win, and thus not have the opportunity to increase your bet more, or that you do not win. There is nothing to say that "it will turn", even if the player wants to believe it while the money disappears. They may be gone. Instead, use a system that is based on reducing the losses, by investing less in the case of loss.
