What is Blackjack?
One of the most popular card games enjoyed across many countries and eras
Blackjack is a card game where the player competes directly against the dealer. The goal is to get your card total as close to 21 as possible without going over, and to score higher than the dealer. It looks simple, but the depth of strategy behind it is what makes the game so appealing.
Card values: numbered cards (2–10) are worth their face value, J, Q, and K are each worth 10, and an Ace can be 1 or 11. Getting exactly 21 with your first two cards is called a "Blackjack" and pays better than a regular win.
At bm99, you can find Classic Blackjack, Live Blackjack, and Multi-Hand versions, so players can choose the table that suits them. VIP tables are also available for those looking to bet bigger.
Ace + King = Blackjack (21 points)
Actions You Can Choose in Blackjack
Hit
Take one more card. Choose Hit when your total is still low and you want more points without going over 21. If your total exceeds 21, you Bust and lose.
Stand
Declare that you are staying with your current hand. Your total is good enough, and you wait for the dealer to Bust — a strategic move when used at the right time.
Double Down
Double your original bet and receive exactly one more card. This is the best time to do it when your first two cards total 9, 10, or 11.
Split
When you are dealt two cards of the same value, you can split them into two separate hands and play both at the same time. Splitting Aces and 8s is the strategically correct move.
Insurance
When the dealer's face-up card is an Ace, you can place a side bet of half your original wager that the dealer will hit Blackjack. Experienced players generally avoid taking Insurance.
Surrender
When the dealer's card is strong and your hand total is unfavorable, you can surrender and lose only half your bet, stepping out of the round.
Basic Strategy Chart — Steps Worth Remembering
Look at the dealer's face-up card and make the best decision for your hand
What makes Blackjack stand out is that mathematical strategy matters more than blind luck. The table below shows the best decision based on the player's total against each dealer face-up card value.
| Player Total | Dealer 2–6 | Dealer 7–9 | Dealer 10, Ace |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8 and below | Hit | Hit | Hit |
| 9 | Double | Hit | Hit |
| 10 | Double | Double | Hit |
| 11 | Double | Double | Double |
| 12 | Stand | Hit | Hit |
| 13–16 | Stand | Hit | Hit |
| 17 and above | Stand | Stand | Stand |
| A–A / 8–8 | Split | Split | Split |
* This chart is a general recommendation for Standard 6-deck Blackjack and may vary depending on table rules.
Tip — The dealer's bust rate is highest with a 5 or 6, so when the dealer shows 5–6 and you have 12–16, choose to Stand.

Blackjack tips players often forget
Manage your bankroll
Set a budget for each session and stop when it runs out. Keep each individual bet to at least 2–5% of your session budget.
Stick to your strategy consistently
Making random Hit or Stand decisions based on a "feeling lucky" mindset raises your long-term loss rate. Follow the chart and stay consistent.
Set a target
Decide something like "I'll aim for a 50% profit this session" and stop when you hit it. Playing with discipline pays off both short-term and long-term.
Check the rules
Does Blackjack pay 3:2 or 6:5? — that difference adds up significantly over time. Also check whether the Dealer hits on Soft 17.
Avoid Insurance
When the dealer shows an Ace and offers Insurance, decline it as a general rule. The math shows that Insurance does not work in the player's favor over the long run.
Don't play under pressure
Avoid chasing losses by jumping straight back in after losing. Take a break, review your session, then return. Also read bm99's Responsible Gaming policy.
