The main concept of the game is to be handed cards adding up to 21. Every gambler is assigned 2 cards. When a blackjack player is dealt a nine or less and an Ace they’ve been given a soft hand. When the black jack player is dealt no Ace cards it is known as a hard hand. As soon as the cards have been dealt every player at the table, including the dealer, each gambler is given the opportunity to make 1 of 6 decisions:

Taking another card (Hit): When a gambler announces "hit" the dealer will give him another card, if the addition of that card causes the value of the hand to exceed twenty-one the black jack player will have lost and that’s the end of the game, if the card makes the value of the hand to 21 the black jack player wins and if the total hasn’t yet achieved twenty one they’re still in the game.

Keeping the hand you’ve been given: If a black jack player is happy with the hand they’ll stand. Once this has happened the croupier will reveal his/her hand and the player who has accumulated twenty one or the nearest to twenty-one will acquire a win.

Doubling Down: A player might request to double down which doubles the wager they have made. As soon as you’ve taken this action you can only be given 1 additional card. The specifics of doubling down are normally specified by the blackjack table or casino rules so before gambling be sure you’re comfortable with the casino established rules. If you are playing at a net betting house this is usually very simple.

Stay tuned for part 2.
