How to Play Blackjack — Basic Steps

  1. Place your bet — Select your chip value and click the betting circle to place your stake before the deal begins.
  2. Receive your cards — The dealer deals two cards to you (face up) and two to themselves (one face up, one face down in American BJ).
  3. Evaluate your hand — Number cards are worth face value; picture cards (J, Q, K) are worth 10; Aces count as 1 or 11.
  4. Decide your action — Hit (take another card), Stand (keep your hand), Double Down (double bet, one more card), Split (if two identical cards), or Surrender (forfeit half your bet).
  5. Dealer plays — After all players act, the dealer reveals their hole card and must hit until reaching 17 or more.
  6. Resolve bets — If your hand beats the dealer without going over 21, you win. Blackjack (Ace + 10-value) pays 3:2. Bust (over 21) means you lose.

Bear in mind: blackjack contributes only 10% toward bonus wagering requirements at Lanista Casino, so it's better played after clearing your bonus rather than during it.
